My mood while writing this blog: ANXiOUS

. .WEEK BY WEEK PROGRESS. .

FiRST TRiMESTER <3

Weeks 1-13 were horrible. I was tired all the time, Cranky, Hungry, I had morning sickness at night && I had absolutly NO sex drive. I made my boyfriend do EVERYTHING, do the dishes, clean the house, take care of the dogs.. it was bad. && When he didnt do something I would yell at him. I felt so bad. Our dogs are probably hating me right now but both of the pups are still going through potty training so ive been extra mean. I also was crying over EVERYTHING and acccusing my boyfriend of stuff that never happened. && I was having the craziest dreams && I would wake up crying!! It was crazy. But some of the good highlights was 1) I heard the baby's heart beat at 10 weeks & 2) I picked out a name if it were to be a girl, but im not telling until i actually find out the sex of the baby! & 3) I have only been working 1 job, instead of the normal 2 :)

Pre Pregnancy Weight: 103 lbs. Weight Now: 115 lbs Total Weight Gain: 12 lbs (the whole first trimester)

SECOND TRiMESTER<3

WEEK 14:

YES! Finally, my second trimester! && You know what, I feel 100% better, Im not sure if it was all in my head or if it was being in my first trimester but it literally went away once week 13 hit! All those crazy symptoms went away, (besides my stupid dogs who are confused that you go potty outside and play inside) other than that i feel 10 bizillion times better. I dont mind waking up, I'm not even as hungry anymore. I sometimes feel like im not even pregnant. Me and Mike went maternity shopping, which didnt go very well. The only place I gained weight was in my boobs && in my stomach. && im a very tiny girl, 4'9'' & pre pregnancy weight was only 103 lbs, so the maternity clothes dont fit me yet, but my regular jeans and stuff dont fit me either, so im sportin the sweat pants like everyday :) or if I go out, I loop a rubberband in my front hole on my jeans (where the button is suppose to go) and then stretch it over the button! I'm just so creative! lol. But I did get some new bras because my boobs went up a whole cup size already!! && as im writing this just to let you guys know ill be an aunt for the first time in like less then 72 hours. My sister, in texas, is dilated :) I'm going to start taking pics now of the belly and see what you guys think too :) Happy Pregnancy Everyone :)

WEEK 15/16:

What a drag this week!! First thing that happened is that I was having really really bad cramps like last Thursday (7/17) morning && then I started getting discharge. On Friday it just got worse so I told my mom && she said to go to the hospital. So I had my boyfriend, Mike to run me to the hospital and after waiting about 2 hours I was finally seen!! I did a pelvic exam && everything and they found out that I had a build up in bacteria. So they did an ultrasound to see how the baby was doing, && not to mention it was my first ultrasound so I kinda upset I had to experience it this way, without Michael in the room. She told me, "Well, looks like your little boy is doing just fine" Im, like WHAT?? lol little boy?? Yeppp im having a little boy, first boy of the family :) I didnt think I could find out the sex that early (considering at the time i thought i was only 14 weeks) && She's like "nope your actually 15 almost 16 weeks"!! That made me very very excited :) So for about 15 - 20 minutes I just stared at my little man, he looked so perfect! When I got back to the room where my boyfriend was waiting, I told him that everything was fine with the baby.. && he's like "are you sure?" I said "Yep, your little boy is doing just fine" lol he just got this huge smile on his face, && tears in his eyes :) That made me so happy. I didnt get hope til 1:00 the next morning and the hospital said they were going to send all the results to my OBGYN && they gave me medication. ( I looked up the medication on the computer && it says i cannot take while pregnant lol, so i threw away the prescription). So now im 16 weeks, && im just so excited about everything so far, besides the cramps. && I went back to my old job so now im back at citigroup from like 6 am to 230 and then the tanning salon at night :) I will do anything for my baby, even if it means neverrrr being home.
