Our little Who is the size of a sweet pea!
Cravings: All breakfast foods (although this craving has come and gone a few times), and every soup my mother has ever made. Veggie beef, chicken noodle, albondigas, mmmmm.... She's coming over this Saturday and we're gonna soup it up.
Physical changes: Nausea has hit! Haven't actually ralphed yet, but I've gotten pretty close. Plus, it seems there isn't a food on the planet now that doesn't make me bloated. I have one pair of jeans that still kinda fit, but not for long if this bloating continues. On the plus side my nails seem to be stronger than ever. Really, it's all the plus side though.
One more week down, 34 to go. Time seems to be passing slower, which is nice for my daughter (she's growing too fast!), but difficult for this pregnancy. It's a moment by moment thing, working past fear. I've admittedly started the bad habit of Googling my "progress" and reading about symptoms and changes to baby. It's a double edged sword. I want to celebrate and live in the moment by knowing how my baby is growing, but reading about changes to my own body makes me paranoid. Should I have more nausea than I do? (Please no!) Should I be this bloated? Are these crazy dreams normal? It's all good though. I'm the happiest "sick" person there is. Bring it on!
Happy thoughts: Hearing my husband say "you're pregnant!" is some kind of confirmation that it's not all in my head. God has blessed me with an incredibly supportive and thoughtful husband. Just him offering to give our daughter a bath makes me want to jump into his arms and kiss him. He goes above and beyond in so many ways though, and I am eternally grateful.
