Due Date: July 24th, 2012
Weight Gain: -5
Symptoms: Feeling a lot better now...more energy for working out, sleeping less, less nausea but still getting migraines. : (
What's different this time: I've been getting sick more than ever....colds, stomach flu, etc. I usually never get sick. My ears have also been popping a lot ever since I was about 6 weeks pregnant, the pressure in them changes frequently..it's weird. I don't remember this at all with Oliver.
Cravings/Aversions: I am craving avocados, sushi, occasionally candy and ice cream but mainly fresh stuff this time.
Sleep: My napping is slowing down some while my energy is picking up. Starting to wake up in the middle of the night now again. I am trying to get more fresh air, that seems to help me sleep through the night.
I am loving: That I am starting to feel better, I have less nausea now! I am loving that I heard the baby's heartbeat last week and that we are buying a house!!! Hopefully we'll move in the next couple of weeks.
I miss: having no migraines
I am looking forward to: My 20 week ultrasound to see the baby again
I'm worried about: buying another house, packing, moving
Best thing about this week: Feeling like I have more energy for the gym
Milestones: We have seen and heard the baby's heartbeat
Movement: still too early
It's a...: we'll find out in July!
Exercise: Trying to workout a few times a week.
Diet: Ok....eating lots of fruit, occasional salads, and have been really craving licorice and DQ ice cream this week. Erik has brought home neither.

10 weeks pregnant!
This is from January 1...I wanted to keep a journal of this pregnancy each month.
Due Date: July 24th, 2012
Weight Gain: nope
Symptoms: Not feeling great in the evening....pretty much the last 8+ weeks have been like this....after 4 pm I just do not feel well...nausea, tired, headache-y.
What's different this time: I definitely feel sicker this time around....needing tums regularly, more worried this time because of previous miscarriage.
Cravings/Aversions: I have been craving lots of fresh fruit, sweets, and pizza
Sleep: I'm getting lots and lots of sleep! I nap almost every day for at least 40-60 minutes and then immediately crash around 9:30-10 after we put Oliver to bed.
I am loving: That we told the boys! Oliver is so excited and does talk about the baby quite a bit. He is very curious about it and wants to know all the details. i.e. look at pictures of how big the baby is online and pulling out old ultrasound photos of himself to examine. : )
I miss: having more energy and working out more! I hope to feel a bit better over the next couple of weeks so I can get back on a better gym schedule.
I am looking forward to: hearing the baby's heartbeat with a doppler at my next prenatal appt.
I'm worried about: see above
Best thing about this week: Definitely Christmas, and watching the kids open their presents and get excited....and telling our families and boys about the baby.
Milestones: We have seen the baby twice with a healthy little beating heart via ultrasound, it was pretty exciting.
Movement: too early
It's a...: we'll find out in July!
Exercise: Trying to workout a few times a week. I want to do more once I am feeling better.
Diet: Ok....eating lots of fruit, occasional salads, some junk food but for the most part I have been pretty good.

We are all very excited as things are falling into place for us, and can't wait to explore our new neighborhood with the boys.
