14 Weeks marks the beginning of the Second Trimester! The Second Trimester is a big deal because it typically means a whole lot less of the gross-ness (nausea, food aversions, feeling tired, etc…) and a lot more of the good stuff! I’m looking forward to feeling good, getting my eating on track and loads more […]
Today we are officially 13 Weeks! Counting down the days until the 1st Trimester is over. It’s not long now. For those of you interested in what’s happening this week (without getting into TOO many details) the baby is about 2.5-3″ and weighs about 3/4 ounce. It’s about the size of a peach! I am […]
This has been such a fun week! After Maciej and I shared the news with our friends and family we were overwhelmed with notes, emails & tons of love! You always hope everyone will be as excited as you, but you never know. We got a lot of people who were shocked by our news […]
Today was an exciting day. M and I were up early for our Nuchal Translucency Screening and monthly appointment. Everything went really well at the screening, although CLL didn’t really want to move into the proper positioning for a while. The Ultrasound Tech had me move into several different positions on my side and my […]
These past few weeks I have been struggling to get the amount of fruits and veggies into my diet that I normally do. They just seem SO unappealing and make me gag slightly when I think of eating them. I try to make a smoothie every morning with my VitaMix blender (thanks, Mom)! But until […]
This is an exciting week for us…not only do we have the Nuchal Translucency Screening (which is an ultrasound to measure the fluid in the back of the baby’s neck) on Wednesday, but on Thursday we hit the 12 week mark. If all goes well at the screening and at our doctor’s appointment on Wednesday, […]
I am 9 weeks and 6 days as of today! Time has slowed a bit… Last week I had some more bright red spotting, which was scary but definitely not as much as the first time. I went in for another ultrasound and everything looked good. The doctor said everything was progressing normally and I […]
this week I have been in CT taking care of our dog, Sophie. She tore her ACL and needed surgery right away. We decided to have it done in CT since we are very comfortable with our vet here. Plus, M and I knew it would be easiest to be at my parents house in […]
I am 7 weeks today. Although some days feel like time is at a stand still, other times I can’t believe there are only 231 more days until the baby arrives! (or so my Baby Bump app on my phone tells me)! As I mentioned in my last post, we went to the doctor and […]
today I’m 6 weeks, 5 days. I thought I’d start this post with a few things that I am currently missing and learning to live without (surprise, surprise, they are mostly food items): -runny eggs -raw milk cheeses -a full nights sleep (peeing and cramps are keeping me up-maybe prep for what’s to come)? -tuna […]
