The First Trimester

After finding out that I was pregnant I was anxious about all of those awful pregnancy symptoms that many mamas experience in the first trimester. During my first OB visit at 8 weeks my doctor prescribed me Zofran. I took one pill (that dissolves) first thing in the morning. I never once got sick or even felt nauseous.  This was a huge blessing as trying to keep up with 20+ fifth graders is hard enough. The first trimester was truly a breeze.  I am praying that the rest of the pregnancy stays as simple as it has been so far!

Without further of due....

12 Weeks

How far along: In this picture 12 weeks, but I am quickly approaching the 16 weeks mark. (Will complete an update post soon.) 

Gender: We don't know yet.  However, I am pretty positive it is a boy.

Weight gain: 1 lb. so far. Pre pregnancy weight was 119. 

Maternity clothes: None, but I do love wearing leggings. It's like wearing acceptable pjs out and about.

Stretch marks: Nope

Belly button in or out: In

Sleep: Like a rock

Best moment this week: Hearing the sweet baby's heart beat and hearing that he/she is healthy. 

Worst moment this week: None

Miss anything: ALCOHOL! What I wouldn't give for a good glass of Merlot or a 7&7.

Movement: None yet.

Cravings: I am loving cereal and chocolate milk.

Queasy or sick: Nope. Gotta love this Zofran.

Looking forward to: Traveling and seeing all of our family for Christmas. 

And the reason for that growing bump is our growing baby...
