14 Weeks!

(Actually 14  weeks 4 days today)

Total weight gain: As of my last appointment at 12 weeks I hadn't gained any weight due to the nausea. 

Maternity clothes? I busted out one of my maternity shirts this past week, but most of my tops are flowy so I can get away with wearing them for awhile. Some shorts are getting a little snug around the waist.

Stretch marks? Still too early in the game.Nothing new to report here.

Sleep: Still waking up at least once a night either due to needing to use the restroom or one of the girls has come into our room.

Best moment this week: Hmm..Well I had a great week with the family. H was off work for a week and Serena was off school for Spring Break. We spent a lot of time outdoors doing different things. More on that later. 

Miss Anything? Having energy. Being able to go through the day without nausea.

Movement: It's been very subtle this week. I think I felt it more early on when I was around 11 weeks and my uterus was still tender.

Food cravings: Meh. I never know what I have a taste for. Thanks nausea! I do still love pizza though. 

Food aversions: Sometimes I'll be chewing chicken or meat and all of a sudden I'll want to throw up. Sometimes it's the texture. It's weird and happens randomly.

Gender: Not sure yet, but getting close to finding out. Next month!

Labor Signs: No.

Symptoms: Tired every day. Random burping, occasional heartburn. Nausea.

Looking forward to: Feeling the baby move more and more and finding out what we are having. Just listened to the baby on my fetal doppler this morning and the heartrate was going strong at 168.

Have a great Monday!

It feels like spring here..

So this week so far has been...I guess you can say weird. Even the weather has been weird. It's been a good week thus far, but also not so good. I'll start with the bad. I started having tooth pain on Saturday, and by Monday I was in a lot of pain. Turns out I have a tooth infection and I either need a new root canal and crown on this molar, or have it extracted. I'll be having the work done tomorrow. The main problem right now is I can only take tylenol because I'm breastfeeding, and the tylenol isn't even doing anything anymore. I'm also on antibiotics and while it's considered a safe one while breastfeeding, it has been crossing the milk because Mariam has been getting some diarrhea and a diaper rash because of it. Certain antibiotics won't always cause an issue but I am on a high dosage that I have to take 4 times a day. I'm hoping by Friday, I will start feeling better.

Now onto the good news! The family and I have an audition this Saturday for an H-E-B commercial. Serena is pretty excited about it. This is the first time I've ever done a family audtion, normally it's just me, so it should be fun! Ive been thinking about what I want everybody to wear. Also, my older brother is in town and today is his birthday. I think the last time I saw him was 2 Thanksgivings ago. We are all headed to my parents later for a little get together and celebration.

Have a great Wednesday!
