Pregnancy Highlights
How Far Along: 11 Weeks, very excited to wrap up the first trimester this week!
Size of baby: Baby Thompson is the size of a lime
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Down about 10 pounds from first appointment, they told me I could only gain 15 pounds, does this mean I now get 10 flex pounds? I hope so!
Maternity Clothes: I have started scouting out clothes for down the road that will keep growing with me.
Gender: Still deciding if we are going to find out, but I think I'm going to want to know. We think doing a gender reveal with our parents when we are home for holidays would be fun.
Movement: I didn't know that little baby was already moving and groovin in there. We got a big surprise with a bonus sonogram at our OB appointment yesterday, and that little baby was waving it's arms and moving all around, it was super cool!
Sleep: R and R are my main priorities these days. It's so nice to get a good nights sleep and take a nap whenever I like. I'm sooo lucky for that!
What I miss: Energy and not feeling sick!
Cravings: Still in survival mode. Making and eating healthy food, just not keeping anything substantial down.
Symptoms: Do my best to get through the morning sickness, hoping the second trimester brings all the good things I've been holding out for!
Best Moment: seeing that little girl or guy wave it's arms at us during our bonus ultrasound. Getting a prescription for Zofran, although it hasn't really worked for me yet.

So nice that you're blogging more now. I guess that thing called work had something to do with that.
ReplyDeleteDown 10-pounds!! woohoo! I think that would probably happen with me because I would have to do without wine and cheese!
Girl, I tried every anti-nausea medication when I was pregnant with Bella! I took Zofran during the day and Phenergan at night (to help me sleep). The 2nd trimester is absoute bliss, so be sure to enjoy every moment! =)
ReplyDeleteI think a gender reveal around the holidays is such a cute idea! That's crazy that you're almost in the 2nd trimester...so exciting! I'm glad you're able to rest when you need to. That is so important.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of a gender reveal with your families! Congrats on getting through the first trimeter, I hope you get some relief from the morning sickness very soon!
ReplyDeleteI feel you! I was sick all 40 weeks and even got sick during labor....aauugghh. Zofran didnt work for me but Zantac over the counter was a godsend. Apples seemed to help too fpr some reason. Hope you feel better!
