12w

How far along? 12w1d

Total weight gain: Few lbs, not sure

Maternity clothes? Yeah, but I think the bloat is gone now, so time to bring on the real bump! lol

Feeling: Big time turnaround last week. It was on Wed I woke up and felt somewhat alive...it was fantastic! Still tired, but no where near as bad as it was.  Excited to enter into the 'fun' part of being pregnant.

Sleep: Hit and miss

Food cravings or aversions:  Loving my chocolate milk...and marshmallows...lol, weird eh?

Best moment this week: Realizing I was coming out of my m/s phase...amazing!!

Movement: There's something going on down there!

Gender: ?

Labor Signs: n/a

What I miss: I have really been craving a glass of red wine. I didn't have this issue last time, I think maybe it's just time of year.

What I’m nervous about:  First real appointment on Wednesday...just hope everything is okay.

What I am looking forward to this week: My appointment of course. And right after that I have a massage and chiro appointment...that will be awesome. Also a long weekend! Yay Canada Day!

Milestones & new this week...just feeling better, that's the big milestone, and making it to 12 weeks. Seemed so far away for so long!

11

How far along? 11w1d

Total weight gain: Few lbs, not sure

Maternity clothes? Yeah, and I'm feeling really frumpy, that annoying 'thick' look.

Feeling: Generally okay, just hating getting up and going to work, I would rather stay home and rest when I need to. I think I'm going to need to set up a little nap space for lunch time around here!

Sleep: All over the place.  I'm SO tired, but then can't fall asleep, last night I was awake half the night, very frustrating.

Food cravings or aversions:  Nope...still trying to kick the pepsi...

Best moment this week: All of our family knows now, which makes things much easier.

Movement: Nope

Gender: ?

Labor Signs: n/a

What I miss: Being more active, I know I could be, but I'm just so tired!

What I’m nervous about:  I haven't had a chance to see/hear a heartbeat yet, won't be until next week. I just need to know everything is okay.

What I am looking forward to this week: It's only a 4 day week. And there is supposed to be sun most of the week, we've had a horrible spring!

Milestones & new this week: Baby is the size of a lime! That's like a real tangible thing now, crazy.

Other updates? I took 2 days off last week to just rest, it was great, and I got all my clothes organized/laundry done, which was a huge load off. I feel like I could fill 2 weeks just getting things organized around the house though.  We spend the weekend with the inlaws and it was pretty good actually.  We had lobster yesterday for Father's Day, and Lyla had fun being spoiled.  Hoping to continue feeling better this week!

10w

How far along? 10w1d

Total weight gain: Few lbs, not sure

Maternity clothes? Yeah, and I'm feeling really frumpy, that annoying 'thick' look.

Feeling: Still yucky, I'm hoping and praying that 12 weeks will bring back some energy, I feel so mopey most of the time, getting frustrating.

Sleep: more would be good :(

Food cravings or aversions:  Nothing really, just random how one moment something sounds good, and the next ...yuck.

Best moment this week: nothing too exciting.

Movement: Nope

Gender: ?

Labor Signs: n/a

What I miss: enjoying getting dressed, and I really wanted a glass of red wine this weekend.

What I’m nervous about:  Having to go stay with the inlaws this weekend. I'd rather mope in my own house!

What I am looking forward to this week: hoping that everyday I'll feel a little better, and hopefully start getting some exercise in!

Milestones & new this week: Baby is the size of a prune! I'll be going to get blood work, make sure everything is on track.

Other updates?  Just have a chiro appointment this week, that usually makes me feel better. Trying really hard to get meals better organized. when I eat healthier I usually feel better overall.  That's about it!

9w

How far along? 9w1d

Total weight gain: I think it's a couple of lbs now.

Maternity clothes? Yeah, and loving it. Not everything obviously, a lot of the pants and stuff are way to big, but I ordered a few summer tops from Old Navy, and they are SO perfect. They just make me feel more put together, and I don't have to be pulling at them all the time.

Feeling: hmmm...not to sure how to describe it. Find sometimes, exhausted most of the time.  really hungry, then ridiculously full.  Good times.

Sleep: okay, hit and miss really

Food cravings or aversions:  Nothing in particular no. Lots of chocolate milk...cause I can!

Best moment this week: Lyla's party. She had so much fun and was so cute. Love that girl!

Movement: Nope

Gender: ?

Labor Signs: n/a

What I miss: waking up feeling rested, enjoying preparing/eating a meal.

What I’m nervous about:  Keeping up with work, I feel like I'm only operating at about 50% right now.

What I am looking forward to this week: Nothing too exciting. Hoping that I continue to feel decent most of the time. And hoping for some nice weather.

Milestones & new this week:  Size of an olive...grow baby grow!

Other notables?  Had the whole family and a bunch of other people over for the party on the weekend. My parents were a great help (pretty much cleaned my whole house), and made sure that I took lots of breaks. Its frustrating  not having the energy I want, but it went a lot better than I thought it would.

Also, we booked our summer/fall vacation . I'm standing in a wedding so we booked a cottage for the week leading up to it.  going to be so nice to have that to look forward to all summer.
