Momma's Monday Check-in: 9/40

Note: McFatty Mondays is no longer!! Instead, I will be posting Momma's Monday Check-in. Join me as I eat and exercise my way through the next 31 weeks.

Due Date: April 8, 2011

Total weight gain:
1
Morning Sickness: I had some of my worst days this past week. I'm hoping this means that it's peaking and going to go away soon!
Cravings: I love you cheddar cheese. and tomato sauce.
Sleep: Horrible, horrible, horrible! Even the littlest disturbance wakes me up and it's been impossible to get back to sleep.
I can't live without: Bump It Up. A (mostly) practical, fun to read guide to pregnancy fashion. The easy to follow guidelines developed for each trimester have been really helpful so far.
I miss: My former, less moody self
I am looking forward to: Nausea, nausea, go away!
Aha Moment: I should embrace maternity clothes and make the investment because I'm going to be spending much of the next 7 or 8 years either pregnant or postpartum.
Milestones: Belly sleep is getting a little uncomfortable!
Best moment this week: I went on a shopping spree at Gap Maternity and bought a mini wardrobe of maternity basics to get me through the fall and winter. I bought almost no maternity clothes last pregnancy so I'm excited to have cute, comfy stuff to wear this time. (Last time I made due with the Bella Band and a "uniform" of slacks, heels (I know!), stretchy tees, and suit jackets. It was great for the office, but not ideal otherwise.)

Exercise: Week 2 of "too ill to make an effort" COMPLETE!! I did go to kickboxing one evening, and twice ran 3 miles, but otherwise nothing!

Diet: The past two weeks have been ones of survival. I'm not keeping track of what I eat because it would probably stress me out. Eating every 30 minutes adds up at the end of the day.

Goal's for the upcoming week: Continue to take advantage of the mornings when I typically feel good and continue to try not to eat the whole house.

Belly Shot:


Movement: none
Gender: unknown
Labor Signs: none

  3. Um, I would not consider doing hard cardio three times in one week WHILE DEALING WITH MORNING SICKNESS to be no effort. That's pretty darn fabulous. Give yourself some props, mama.
