BABY ATKINS - WEEKS 9 - 13

Sunday, December 25, 2016






Slacking does not even suffice. For one, I have barely touched my laptop all of December because 1. It's a piece of junk and for 2. I haven't had school, which means no need! I'm sad because I really wanted to document all of this experience. But I plan to be better from here on out.

How far along? Currently I am 14 weeks 3 Days (EDD is June 22, 2017). I will do a 14 week update later this week.

Total weight gain/loss: My last appointment I actually lost 3 pounds and everyone around me seems to think I am noticeably losing weight, I go to the doctor this Thursday so I will have a better update next week!

Maternity clothes? Nope not yet! I've still been fitting in all my regular clothes. I just like to be extra comfy for as long as I can and whenever I can.

Stretch marks? Nope, none yet! I can feel my lower stomach getting a little pooch so I have been trying to be a lot better about applying my Mama Bee Stretch Mark Cream as much as I can. It's really hard to keep up on, honestly.

Sleep: I have been sleeping just fine. I cannot complain.

Symptoms: Sick, sick and more sick. I can't even begin to explain the nausea and dry heaving I am dealing with in the early mornings. It is Christmas morning and Shae made us a nice breakfast and I was dry heaving at the sight and smell. Yayyyy. Other than that, still dealing with hormonal breakouts, I've been a little irritable and impatient and just exhausted.

Best moment this week: The best moments during this time were seeing our baby and watching him or her progress. It has been the most amazing thing I've ever experienced.

Have you told family and friends: We announced it publicly at 12 weeks. I will share the announcement down below!

Miss Anything? Getting through a day without feeling like complete ass.

Movement: Still nothing yet but I'm patiently waiting. :)

Food cravings: Seriously so strange, but I have been craving a Bloody Mary and sushi for weeks now!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Anything to do with mornings. Especially early mornings.

Have you started to show yet: Yes I feel like I have a little pooch at the bottom of my stomach!

Gender prediction: I've predicted girl basically my entire pregnancy.

Ultrasound Update: At 11 weeks, baby had a healthy heartbeat of 167 BPM!

Labor Signs: No

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Tired but still very HAPPY and excited that we find out the gender at 14 weeks! (Yes that means we know now, I will make a separate post for that!)

Looking forward to: SHOPPING TILL I DROP.
