I know I haven't written in a while...it's not because I've forgotten to write; it's more because nothing has really happened since my last post. I haven't been back to the doctor, and my symptoms are few.
Currently I'm experiencing an increase in acne, and a craving for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. There was one day (on April 16, 2014) where I must have been craving vegetables....because I had a salad, carrots and ranch, and V8 to drink.
I still have the occasional abdominal pains...but more of the pain is my nerves. It's so bad sometimes that I can't even stand in one spot too long. Other times, it's just hard to lay down or sleep.
I often have to wake up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and get a snack. This morning was one of those mornings. I woke up at 1:20 AM and went to the bathroom, then grabbed a snack, and then went back to bed. After 2 hours of not falling asleep, I finally gave up and got up for the morning. I didn't go back to bed until around 7ish and then I slept until about 10. Last night I had gone to bed rather early...probably the reason for my waking up so early....especially as I normally wake up to go to the bathroom anywhere between 3 and 5 AM.
I am currently 11 weeks and 2 days along. And according to my "I'm Expecting" app, I have approximately 201 days until delivery. That is still quite a ways off, but at the same time, the pregnancy is sort of flying right by me. I mean, I'm already almost in my 2nd trimester. About 4 and a half months from now is when I plan to have my baby shower.
Hubby and I are trying to prepare ourselves for what is to come this November. There is no real way to prepare for your first child. It's hard to imagine how much your life will change. Anyway, I guess this is my rant for now. I'll be posting again real soon. I have an appointment on May 8, 2014 and another one on May 9, 2014. I'll be posting after each of those visits.
