I’m out of the first trimester. YEE-HAW!! I wish I had some exciting baby bump pictures to post but I don’t. The bump has failed to appear as of yet. I have a feeling that it will make an appearance over the holidays though. I am 14 weeks as of today and I better see something soon!
I’ve taking on a bit of a droopy pants look lately and I must say, it’s not very flattering. Given my utter repulsion of most food for the first 12 or so weeks, I dropped a few pounds. On a shrimpy gal like myself, that’s all it takes to alter the proper fitting of a nice pair of pants. Again, with the holidays right around the corner, I’m sure I’ll have easily found those lost pounds.
So what else is new on the pregnancy front?
- Now that I have energy, I’ve signed up for 2 prenatal yoga classes that start after the first of the year and am going to the gym on a regular basis. I got the red light from my OB at around 8 weeks on the running due to some minor complications, so I don’t exactly leave the gym dripping in sweat.
- I still can’t go through the night without going to the bathroom at least 3 times.
- I have an inexplicable rash on my arms.
- I still haven’t had a drop of caffeine since day one.
- Pickles are a very true craving stereotype, at least for me. I think about mini dill pickles during the day and immediately eat 3 of them as soon as I walk in the door. I do not share these jars of pickled goodness with Jeff.
- The baby has a super high heart rate and everybody thinks I’m having a girl which automatically leads me to believe that it will be a boy.
That’s about all I know at this point.

What a great update! I'm gonna have to go with a girl also. Both of my boys had a low heart rate. As for starting to "show," give it time. Before you know it you won't recognize yourself. The 2nd trimester is cute, the last is not so cute. You're tiny though so you'll look adorable. I looked like Shamu the killer whale. Keep us updated on your pregnancy! It's so exciting.
