Picturers and new symptoms..

So I finally uploaded picturers I took every week since I found out that Im pregnant!!
Its amazing how different I feel now...=) At first there was NO symptoms............I only felt bloaty7 weeks...........I started to get MORE hungry.....You can see I can barely close my pants! Ahhh!

8 weeks...............I started having morning sickness........terrible feeling I wanted to just sleep it off

I had my 1st prenatal appt. thursady....I didnt know I would have an ultrasound....I was amazed that I can see the baby's heart beat (Just ONE baby ) it made me melt...and made it more real....<3> I started asking ppl who have kids for any suggestions to help me with the morning sickness....one person suggested eating RIGHT when I wake up......I tried it and it helped! She also mentioned to eat more often so I ate about every 2hrs...........NO MORNING SICKNESS!! This is what I ate Friday from when I woke up until I fell asleep:
Toast with I cant believe its not butter spray and sips of sprite zero
Honey bunches of oats and low fat milk and a bananna
Wheat thins
Jasmine ,orange and pomegranite green tea (decaff)
Yogurt (60cal) and granola
Snack size of kettle corn (100cal)
Lunch was left overs rice and chicken
My cowker is a vegan and had me taste something called Quinoa....it was about 3 spoon bites and a small taste of vegan collard greens (a bite) YUMMY
Half a vegan sandwhich...FULL
When I normally get off wk Im hungry but since I ate alot I was ok....
Dinner was made around 5 which is normally when I eat but I made whole wheat penne pasta with zuccini yellow squash (organic) broccoli bell peppers and onions w garlic all sauteed in olive oil (only the veggies) I tossed it all together wth some alfredo sauce I knw it is not as healthy as I should of had it but we had company and I tried to hide the veggies I can say EVERYONE ate it! Along with garlic bread....
A friend of ours asked if she can bring dessert.......She suggested Baclava but I know it wouldve made my tummy hurt from eating it because I like it soooo much I wouldnt stop so I suggested apple pie....I had ONE slice =D
Im doing my best to eat healthy all day, I will allow my cravings but will try to stick to only weekends......Im sorry I havent wrote its just that I have been really tired....I will continue to take picturers and post them =)

7 weeks and counting......

As of tuesday I am 7 weeks pregnant .......http://www.babycenter.com/6_your-pregnancy-7-weeks_1096.bc here is the link as to what is going on with me and how the baby looks like right now ....I am very excited, no morning sickness but theres ONE symptom I wish I can live without, if youve been pregnant before you know all about the uncomfortable feeling of when your breast swell =( It hurts (sorry if its TMI) I didnt have that big of an issue with Gena until AFTER she was born I think the only reason I think its happening is because I drink sooooo much water, 62oz of ice cold water. I started wking out with weights for my arms and Im doing squats for my legs also I walk everyday even though I dont want to.My eating has gotten ALOT better....I have gained about 5lbs and no more than that I read Im suppose to gain about 2-3lbs a month the first trimester..so Im good so far! lol Im eating alot more fruit and decaffinated tea's.....I do have cravings and hubby has noticed its mainly sweets, I agree!! I dont want junk food I want ice cream, chocolate and pies..........do I have them? maybe , sometimes.......XD Next week Im 8 weeks Im super nervous because I have my prenatal appt........YAY!! Im excited and nervous! I will be making a list of questions I have been wanting to ask the Dr....just to be sure I am doing everything I can to be healthy =)

New taste buds

Im almost 7 weeks..... I notice theres certain things I LOVE now....Milk is one....yes milk, I normally dont like milk unless it has chocolate in it lol , but Im realizing I crave it, I had a big glass of milk and it was sooooooooooo good!! Today we went to Red Robin and hubby ordered onion rings I normally dont like them at all......onions are one thing that when pregnant would make me gag, he asked me to taste it and I for some odd reason I did, IT WAS GOOD!!!! yes its weird!! lol Oni was shocked, he thinks that maybe this pregnancy I will actually try different things I think hes right =S scary because Im cautious about what I eat but recently its like I dont really take caution. I have been wking out more, on my 15min breaks I go to the gym down stairs and do weights and squats and still do my 30min walks even though I rather nap!! lol I told hubby tomorrow I will start the gym again and hes ok with it....I need to stay active especially since Im eating differently NOT all bad just mainly more, I do need to go grocery shopping this week Im low on certain foods.....I still love snacking on my sugar snap peas and Im drinking TONS of water......Im noticing Im always thirsty. On tuesday I turn 7 weeks and then the following week I have my 1st prenatal appt Im excited and nervous..........I really dont want to see how much I have gained, my cloths still fit but I have moments where I can see a bump........I need to down load a picture I took so you can see what Im talking about =)....thanks for cking up on me!

6 weeks and counting

So today was an ok day.....I have been extermly tired and not really wanting to do anything but I did do my walk today (30min and uphill) I did some research today and read that I CAN do some wkouts with modifications........like resistance bands and sumo squats....I read that I CANT do walking lunges because of my pelvis I can hurt myself also it says no free weights just because I can drop them and hurt myself.So I decided to start this TOMORROW why? because...IM TIRED!!! lol... Im sooo spoiled and loving it, while pregnant all I need to say is "Ohh Im sooo craving....." and I normally get it hehe...yesterday we had Soup Plantation YUMMY!! I was also craving my moms flour tortillas she doesnt make them with lard she uses oil so they arent as bad yes they still arent healthy but hey I dont eat them all just one makes me happy ..I called her and told her and shes all "Ok I will make some for you today"YAY!!

The girls are really excited for the baby. Gena keeps asking when it will get here and keeps kissing my little bump, yes BUMP I will take a picture this week.....Akira surprisingly is also excited!! She was mad with Gena but now shes older so now she cant wait...she keeps talking about it =) My mother in law today gave me a mango, normally I wont eat them because they have soooo much sugar, but after dinner I wanted something sweet so I tasted it OMG! Sooo good!! I made green salsa enchiladas with chicken and spanish rice I only had one though. Today was an ok day, like I mentioned I have been very tired so Im taking naps at work on my 15min break so I take 30min all day, it helps me alot! Im about to head to bed its 9:30pm and my eyes are ready to close! NIGHT!

Setting in

Its been hard realizing that Im pregnant....not because I dont want it I DO! But Im not use to being hungry all the time the weight gain YES weight gain!! =( I want to just get on a diet but cant and wont....Im sooooo tired lately! I dont want to walk or anything just sleep and use the rest room..........Its been hitting me hard like every 30minutes...I do drink 62oz of water which is the reason I go alot but also the fact that Im 6 weeks........Oh yea and I feel bloaty....my tummy is poofy and its hard to suck it in....I asked some people about 3rd pregnancies (they have 3) and they said they showed alot quicker than the other ones...WHAT!? I thought I would have more time....I mean I dont want to just show so early, I want to wear my cloths and still look ok...but nope now its more snug and it can be because Im eating more, not all unhealthy food but I do have my moments. It just feels like I cant stop or Im always hungry, my cousin joked that now my body is happy because Im not on a diet , lol could be! but still =( I know I dont mean to complain.....but its been 4yrs and 7 months since I had my last child.Today we went to Babies R US and looked around everything is soooo pretty! Oni wanted to just start buying!! I saw some strollers I wanted and also some comforter sets but I want to wait until Im further along, Im excited and in a few weeks I have my 1st prenatal appt right now this is how my baby looks like
thanks for cking up on me!
