I am back! Finally!! I know it has been a long time since I last updated. It is sad to say...but it is Lil' Jonesie's fault. Seriously. I have had sickness, fatigue, moodiness.....You name it...I probably have been dealing with it. I had a couple good weeks in the ladder part of my first trimester. But for the most part I was sick almost every morning or day. Not vommitting sick everyday. I just had a lot of nauseousness and zero energy.
This is pretty much how an average day would go for me:
5:30am Wake up. Let the dogs outside. Feel nauseous. Eat a bowl of cereal. Go back to sleep.
7:00am Get ready for work. Eat again. Go to work. Feel okay until about 9:30/10 then feel nauseous again. So...eat again.
12:00 Eat lunch. Take a break while Sydnee napped.
Feel better for the rest of the day but still not much energy.
5:00 Get home from work and not feel like doing a darn thing.
Not not everyday was just like this. But I definitely have had to eat about every two hours to keep me going during the day. And when I eat it is usually small meals or snacks.
When I don't eat after about two hours I start feeling weak and nauseous. Isn't that ridiculous!!??
One funny food aversion I have dealt with is salad and eggs. The first trimester I couldn't stand the thought, sight, or smell of eggs. Pretty much the same goes for salad.
But now...almost every morning I am wanting eggs and I love me my salads again! I am so glad because my whole life one of my most favorite things to eat is salad.
I am now 14 weeks along! 99 days exactly!
I woke up this morning and took a pic so I could post a recent one. It seems my belly grew overnight!! I swear it wasn't that big yesterday!! :D
Here I am. 14 weeks as of yesterday:
Next Friday we go back to the doc for my 16 week appt. I cannot wait to hear that little heartbeat again!! I am not actually 16 weeks until the following week but they didn't have any openings that week.
HOWEVER, my 16th week we are going to a 3D Ultrasound office. The appointment is set for Wednesday, the 27th. My birthday!!!
We will get to see 3D images of our little one and find out the gender!!!! That is what Morgan and I are both so excited about. I am not going to lie...I am a little weary about seeing the 3D images because sometimes those pics look creepy! But finding out the gender will be amazing!!! Once we know the gender then we can decide on a name! We already have the first names picked out for a boy or girl...but still undecided (or shall I say, can't agree) on the middle names. :)
The names we HAVE decided on, and we have had these names picked out for years, are:
Girl: Kirra
Boy: Cayle (after Morgan's late grandfather, his hero)
Well, here is one last pic for Halloween grins.
13 Weeks.
As of now our baby is the size of an orange!! In the next couple weeks it will be able to hear!
So, I will be talking to it and singing songs in my awful unblessed singing voice. :)
Until next time, I will be snacking and eating. Eating and snacking. :)
