1st Trimester:
Beef- The smell/look/taste has disgusted me since two days before I found out I was expecting! I told my hubby to change the channel anytime there was a food commercial! lol! Not to mention I did not want to cook for myself or my man.
Food- I had to figure out what wasn't disgusting that day!
Fruit- That is simply all I craved fruit FRUIT & more fruit! (dozens of strawberries, nectarines, grapes, and clementines
Bagels & Cream cheese- for two weeks straight, this was the only thing I ate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Mmmmmm.
Pickles & Ice Cream- Of course...I love both even not preggo. I could eat a whole jar of pickles in 3 days or less! LoL! And I still love & crave all dairy such as ice cream & yogurt.
Stomach aches- I had little stomach aches and small spell of nausea from smells & lack of wanting food.
{Zzzzzzz}- I was so tired by 6PM...forget housework!
2nd Trimester-
Food- Didn't seem so disgusting & my taste buds came back! Energy was zapped back into me! And I was finally not so tired as early. But I tried to see if I could enjoy beef again ~Urks~ no sireee! yuck! i've just stuck with chicken/turkey.
Questions- Random thoughts & questions, "Am I where I should be?" etc~etc.
The BiG Ultrasound- After numerous detailed vivid dreams before we even started trying for a baby, I dreamed of having a boy over & over and even 2 nights before the ultrasound, I dreamed the ultrasound showed it was a boy. But on the big day, our tech saw very clearly, it was a GiRL! She saw that I was surprised and I told her about my dreams and she said, "Well don't always go by dreams, cuz I dreamed I was gonna have triplets & luckily that didn't happen," I looked at my husband to see what his reaction was, he smiled & was of course surprised & excited. Especially to tell his mom, who always wanted a daughter, and this is her first grand-child!!! So this lil' angel is gonna get ~SpOiLeD~!
3rd Trimester((so far))-
Charley Horses- in my leg & foot occuring while I'm sleeping! Owe! such an annoying pain! (yes, i'm staying hydrated & eating potassium, but they still happen!)
Back Pain- I already have back pain as it is, sooo, I knew when I was preggo it would be a big pain. Standing or walking for just a little bit brings on extreme lower back pain, I'm so blessed to have a sit-down job. I thank the Lord daily.
Tight Swollen Fingers- My sweet wedding diamond is worn as a necklace instead of a ring. I type a lot daily at work and thought I had arthritis or something, cuz my fingers were so tight and achy! Then I realized, OH, yes, that's part of pregnancy! Oh joy!
Can't - get - my - darn - pants & shoes on!!!- Sheesh! what a task it is to do this daily. I'm now wearing shoes that you don't have to tie! And well, pants still plain suck.
Braxton Hicks- Occur often all day, everyday! Tight & Painful, especially when I get a swift kick in the rib at the same time! thanx darlin'! ;)
Movement- I enjoy every movement she makes, even when I'm trying to fall asleep. It's such a neat feeling & too hard to explain what if feels like to someone. It's fun to stare at my belly moving & wonder was that an arm, an elbow, fist, or a foot? I was hoping she'd kick my hubby while he was sleeping! and she did! my belly was against his back and he felt her kick & he said it woke him up, he said, "She's not even born yet & she's already waking me up, haha!"
Hard nights rest- Between trying to get comfortable, baby moving, changing sleeping positions, (I'm so sick of sleeping on my side!) and bathroom routines ~ I know the Lord is getting me ready for when the baby keeps me up at night for sure! ~sigh~
Belly Size- Everyone says I'm small for being 6 weeks away, but my OB says I'm where I should be and I'm fine with my size, especially cause of back pain, plus hopefully it will increase my odds of regular & easy delivery!
Labor & Birth Class- After scheduling the class weeks ahead, my husband got stuck working out of town days before & knew he wasn't going to be able to come to the class with me. I cried & cried days before the class, he felt so bad he couldn't be there, so he surprised me with a huge spring bouquet of flowers delivered to me at work the day before the class with a sweet note, and promised we would re-enact the everything he missed. Everyone remarked what a great husband I have. I agreed ~still pouting~... I love my Taylor, he's the best husband ever!
Anticipation: I can't wait to meet her! ! !
