Sorry for the lack of postage... Not a whole lot going on right now. I'm finally over my exhaustion, which has been great! Working out is no longer a chore and I'm eating a lot better. Not that I was eating bad before, but it was so hard to force myself to cook dinner every night! But I didn't resort to eating out or eating junk food, so yay for getting over that hurdle! I've started getting heartburn pretty regularly (and I NEVER got heartburn pre-pregnancy). It's not too bad most of the time, but sometimes it keeps me up when I'm trying to sleep. Tums don't work and I can't take anything else, so I guess I'll just have to deal with it. There's really nothing I can do, changing my diet wouldn't help (not that I eat foods that even cause heartburn). This is pregnancy-induced heartburn, not diet-induced, so I'm pretty much screwed. Oh well, it's all for the best! That's my only complaint at the moment. Everything else is going great!!
I have my second doctors appointment tomorrow afternoon. We're supposed to be able to hear the heartbeat, so I'm super excited!!! I hope belly bean is nice and healthy in there. If all goes well I'm going to start telling the rest of my friends and my co-workers on Monday. Either Jeremy or I will update the blog again sometime this weekend with the results! I just hope the doctor can find it... Sometimes they can't pick it up this early, so we shall see!
I'm still fluctuating between the same three pounds, as I have been since week 1 of this pregnancy. It's been going on like this for awhile, which is fine. Of course, I've had a crazy appetite these last few days and God knows what's going on with my weight right now. Just in time for my weigh-in at the doctors office tomorrow! lol. Despite the fact that my weight has essentially remained the same, I'm definitely getting a little pooch. I've had to start wearing my Bella Bands with almost all of my pants, otherwise they're so tight I can't stand it! It felt weird at first (since your pants are unbuttoned), but I'm getting used to it now. Though I still love to get home from work and slip into pajama, yoga, or sweat pants. hahaha. I'm glad it's getting warmer out, because I have these gaucho capri pants that are soooooo comfy and I can get away with wearing them to work! Wahoo! Now if only I could wear flip flops.....................
No more cravings and I'm back to thinking Fruity Pebbles are gross, so that's good. I still find it weird that THAT is what my body craved. One of the worst cereals out there. Whatevs. lol. Considering I've only had one craving in 11 weeks, I won't complain.
Holy crap, I can't believe I'm going to be 11 weeks tomorrow! I only have THREE weeks of the first trimester left! (yes, the first trimester is 14 weeks not 12) That's less than a month!!!!! I can't believe how fast time is flying by! I just hope it slows down in the second trimester so I can enjoy it all. (c: Now... When I get to the third trimester, well, we'll see. lol. Some women say they love it, others hate it. We'll see where I stand when the time comes!
Okay, I'll stop rambling. I'll leave you with this little nugget of information: This week belly bean grew to be the size of a prune and is about to take his/her first bowel movement. Dang! It's nice to know there's someone pooping inside of me...
