I stink at keeping a journal of any kind. I start, am super gung-ho for a while...and then the inevitable happens..My gung-ho-ness dies out..I have never, even once kept a pregnancy journal of any kind. I am going to attempt to do it this time. I found out I was pregnant on October 25. From what I can figure I am 6 weeks and 1 day as of right now. I instantly gained 5 pounds. I have, to this point not lost it, but have not gained more. I am still able to work out each morning, but I am limited to the bike and strength training. Why? Because standing makes me feel like I may die. Seriously. I feel halfway normal if I am sitting down, but as soon as I stand, my stomach starts turning and I get faint..It is no fun..
Other than the morning sickness, (man, is that name deceiving!) the hardest part for me is that I already have a belly. I know, you probably think I am crazy. I mean my baby is the size of a grain of rice. HOW?! I cannot tell you, other than this is NOT my first rodeo, and apparently, with each child you show a little sooner. The problem is, though, I don't look pregnant so much as just chubby. I guess it is par for the course, and I know there are women who would kill to be as lucky as I am when it comes to conceiving and carrying children.
I am exhausted. All. The. Time. I survive by doing the bare minimum..Wake up, gym, feed kids, sleep, school (3 days a week), feed kids, sleep, light cleaning, sleep, feed family, relax, sleep. My kids are watching TV more right now than they have in 2 years! I feel bad, but I figure, we just gotta make it few a few more weeks!
We are due July 3, 2012, and are hoping for a girl. Not lookin' forward to bein' pregnant in the summer...But it'll all be worth it in the end! =)
