So we will start the bumpdate weekly photos at 12 weeks like we did last time. I am still on the hunt for a good idea. I wont be using the large chalkboard this time around, because it was just too time consuming....and Emma will want to help! So this post probably wont be very eventful. Just an update on mommy and baby.
I have been feeling a little anxious since my last appointment. Wanting everything to be ok, but waiting for another u/s to calm my nerves. Anyone who has experienced a loss, or pregnancy in general knows how nerve wracking it can be just waiting. Once the baby starts moving consistently you start to relax and enjoy the pregnancy. It doesn't help that a vlogger I follow lost her baby at 6 weeks, but didn't find out until 8, and she was only a week ahead of me. Makes you hyper aware of everything. I think because I didn't see my own doctor at my initial appointment it made me needing that sensitivity that I am used to. Hopefully I can get that confirmation I need from my dr at my next appointment.
As far as symptoms go, I have had a lot of round ligament pain when I move too quickly. I need to learn to take things a little slower, but that's really hard when you work full time and have a toddler. The nausea has pretty much subsided, but I still have my moments where I just don't feel that hot. I try to keep snacks and water around me to combat this. I think I may be having a tomato thing like I did with Emma. Every time I have tomato sauce my tummy gets all riled up and I have to take a tums and some Ginger Ale to settle it. I have been feeling these flutters on the right side of my lower tummy....and keep thinking to myself I cannot be feeling the baby already! I went back and read my updates with Emma and discovered that I didn't start feeling things until 13 weeks with her sooooo.....who knows. Clothes are tight and I am limited in the pants department and I am starting to feel super bloated in the middle but nowhere near a bump yet. I am resisting pulling down the maternity pants just yet....but they are calling to me! The fatigue and hormonal insomnia are still raging strong. I wish I could sleep!
Whelp that's all I can think of right now....I'm sure I am missing something since my brain just seems fried! Compare to Emma's pregnancy: Week 11
