Things here have been great. I have been continuing to walk or go to the gym 5X a week and I think that is helping me sleep well and feel good. I have yet to swell, but I am sure that will be coming in the next few months. My next doctor's appointment is Monday July 13th. I have to have my gestational diabetes test (1 hour) as well as get a shot since I have Rh - blood. I haven't been to the doctors in 6 weeks so I will be very interested in seeing how much I gained since I feel like I became very pregnant over the past 6 weeks. My goal is to not put on more than 35 lbs (in total) this pregnancy, so we'll see if I am on track. The baby has been moving around and kicking a lot. Mike has finally felt it and can even see it now. She mainly moves when I wake up in the morning and after I eat. As of right now she is not keeping me up at night...............I am sure that will change come October!
I also have become extremely laid back and flaky. I have pregnancy brain pretty bad and forget everything. Both Mike and I thought that I would be a psychotic nightmare this pregnancy and it is the opposite. Mike has even said he likes me better pregnant for this reason. With less than 14 weeks to go, we really need to get the house and our lives ready for baby.
The below picture was taken on Saturday July 12th. I am 26 weeks. We took it before Mike's Birthday BBQ that I threw him. He turned 31 on July 4th and we were lucky enough to spend it in Tulsa with friends and family.
