The Sweetness

I never realized how many people were "keeping tabs" on us or were following my blog until people started asking me to post more! I just want to say thank you! That makes me feel so good and so loved! Not that I didn't feel loved before, but I feel like my blog isn't just sitting out there in "cyberspace", collecting dust. So thank you all for reading! It means the world to me!

Anyways, here's a little update about baby:

Everything is going great! I'm in the second trimester (14 weeks now) and I'm loving it! My "extreme fatigue" has mostly subsided (I still get pretty tired most days) but my doctor ok'd me to drink coffee so I am saved! A lot of people told me to stop drinking caffeine because it's not good for the baby, but my doctor told me to not stop drinking them because I've been getting really bad withdrawal headaches. I just can't have energy drinks and only 1-2 cups of coffee a day or one soda. I've been really hooked on iced coffee, so I stick with that and my headaches are gone!




I've been gaining a little bit of weight. Doctor wants me to gain 25lbs by the time I have the baby. No girl really likes to hear that she needs to "gain weight", but I'm not too worried really. I've lost that amount before, so that comforts me that I may be able to do so again. I've gained about 8lbs since conceiving and I kind of feel it. Many of my clothes are feeling a little more snug than normal, which can be a little disheartening, but it makes the experience all the more real.

Three weeks from Friday, we hopefully get to see what our little munchkin may be! I'm super excited, as is Jake. When I have access to a computer, I'm going to post a poll and see who thinks it's a girl or a boy!

Stay tuned!

P.S. Jake is going write a post for me to put up on here! I am so excited to read it, as I'm sure many of you might be interested as to see what he'll write!
