10+ Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along: 10 and a half weeks

Size of Baby: A prune!

Appointment Updates: Our next appointment is on the 28th where we will hear the heartbeat again!! What a great feeling!

Symptoms: I am starting to hit a good point in my pregnancy. Nausea has almost subsided and queasiness to any type of food. It is interesting how one minute I want one type of food and then next it doesn’t even look or sound good. I am still enjoying my sleeping but getting through a full day of school is not as painful.

My newest symptom did pop up on Monday and was horrible. I have had stomach issues in the past but did not associate these symptoms with being pregnant. The pain began in my back during the early school hours and got worse. Of course, me the worry wart, started to get panicked when the pain came around the front. Relief came around 3 a.m. when I finally remembered having these lovely problems in high school. I am still working on daily relief and hope to find a remedy soon.

What I Miss: Josh and I went to a Valentine’s lunch at Olive Garden and I really missed not having a glass of wine. A sip of wine would probably not hurt but I would not be able to stop at a sip. Cravings: I am still really enjoying salty items! One item I have been eating a lot of is macaroni and cheese or any other type of pasta. Gross: Can’t think of anything right now

We have gotten the question a lot lately if we will find out the sex of the baby and the answer is . . . No! We can’t wait to hear the doctor announce the sex upon arrival! The only downfall/positive is that we can’t find any unisex outfits for the baby because most are boys/girls. If we knew the sex I would go crazy shopping so I think it is a positive!

I hope to post a picture of my slowly growing baby bump this week!!!!
