How I'm Feeling: I feel great. I've started walking once, sometimes twice a day and it makes me feel good to know I'm supporting my body and baby by staying active! Sleeping is starting to cause my hips to hurt & recently I've noticed I'm waking up with achy muscles right under my boobs...not sure if it's my abdominals stretching or my boobs getting heavier..maybe a combination. I'm trying to sleep laying down as long as possible but I see sleeping propped up in my near future, blah!
Weight Gain/Loss: I haven't been weighing, I just wait to weigh at my doctor appointments. I feel like adding in my new walking routine has probably caused my weight to maintain, but I do up my caloric intake to make up for what I burn off! Hello Trader Joes Chocolate Chip Dunkers..
Cravings: I housed some Panang curry this past weekend. I still love spicy food! I guess I already mentioned the chocolate chip cookies, no shame in this momma's game! I love TJ's sparkling water, and so does Layla..she goes crazy from the bubbles!
Gender: Girl. A very, very ACTIVE baby girl!
What I Miss: My husband...really hating that he is missing out on any of this special time! I also miss sleeping on my back, the side sleeping is causing the fore mentioned hip & boob muscle pain. May be time to seek out a new pregnancy pillow because the Boppy isn't cutting it!
What I'm Looking Forward To: To start DIY projects for some of the nursery decor! I'm also ready to raid some flea markets.
Weekly Wisdom: I'm not really sure I have any wisdom this week. Oh, only that maternity clothes shopping is really frustrating & I am officially checking maternity clothing stores off my list. At least until I'm huge and have no choice in the matter. What is it with all the STRIPES?! Is it an unspoken rule that once you're pregnant you have to wear big, ugly horizontal stripes? And what are maternity cardigans? Other than being 2x the price? I don't see why I need a special open-front cardi that my belly will stick out of, maternity or not. Ok, rant over..see, no wisdom here. Only pregnancy hormones.
