Momma's Monday Check-in: 12/40

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 28 weeks.

Due Date: April 8, 2011

Total weight gain:
4
Morning Sickness: I thought it was gone, but I was wrong.
Cravings: Orange juice, gummy bears
Aversions: Butter and cheese
Sleep: I'm still very tired all the time but I'm more or less sleeping through the night
I can't live without: Maternity pants. I think I'm over the Bella Band. I swore by it last pregnancy, but this time it's really getting on my nerves. I need some pants made for pregnant people, the end.
I miss: My waistline--this in between period is presenting a real wardrobe challenge
I am looking forward to: a big baby belly
Aha Moment: 12.5 weeks completed, all signs point to a healthy baby, yippee!! I'm really growing another person!
Milestones: This week was full of them: first prenatal appointment, heard the heart beat on Doppler for the first time, saw the baby on ultrasound, and I think I've officially entered the second trimester. Sah-WEET!!
Best moment this week: Watching Little Sears Rock'n and Roll'n in 3-D.

Exercise: A couple interval runs and some long morning walks. Better than last week, but not good enough :) When I made my big plans I forgot that Andy had to work late twice, and that we would be out of town over the weekend. I may or may not have mentioned that I signed up for a 10K race on November 14th. Six weeks to work my way back up to 6 miles. Can I do it!?

Diet: I'm not feeling quite as picky as I have been the last month or so, and definitely better able to make healthy choices since the fatigue hasn't been as great. Luckily, I've had aversions to overtly fatty food options, finally.

Goal's for the upcoming week: Ohhhh, the same as last week! I miss my old routine.

Belly Shot:

Movement: none
Gender: unknown
Labor Signs: none

  4. hey lady! sorry i've been mia lately!! but in response to the comment you left me today, i know! being tired/exercising is a circle, you're too tired to do it, but you won't get the energy if you don't!! I guess Nike knew what they were talking about when they made their slogan "Just Do It", huh. I really want to be back to goal weight before my next pregnancy so I'm making that my new timeline, the sooner I lose, the sooner we can try! I mean it's as good a way to plan as any, right? LOL.
    Sorry for the longness, I should've just em'ed you huh?
    I truly appreciate all your comments!!
