Overall this pregnancy I have felt pretty good. I never documented early on in my first pregnancy so I kept a little log this time around.
Week 6: tiredness and little queasiness kicked in hard
Week 7: insomnia about 5 hrs sleep
Week 8: no nausea with snacks, started sleeping better by the end of the week, craving cinnamon raisin bagels
Week
9: getting energy back; had first ultrasound and heart rate was 161; saw baby's
arms legs, spine and brain. Baby was very active and I am sleeping through the night again.
Week 10: ran for the first time (4miles) since finding out I was pregnant - felt great
Week 11: tired again and not sleeping great, second run (4 miles) felt like a marathon
Week 12: heart rate was 166 on Tues and 154 on Thurs. Ran 4 miles on Thursday while the weather was nice. Still weighed 125 my pre-pregnancy weight.
Week
13: went great until the end of the week when I was dizzy and exhausted.
Randy thinks it's from not eating enough. Ran 4 miles again.
Week 14: not very hungry these days
Week 15: not sleeping much but that's b/c I have a lot on my plate planning a surprise birthday party
Week 16: baby's heart rate was 145 this week and I have put on 3.5 lbs. Finally went for a run again since the weather warmed up a bit and did 3 miles. It amazes me that only 3 short months ago I had just finished two 1/2 marathons and a 10 miler and now I am huffing and puffing over 3 miles.
Finally gave in and ordered some new maternity clothes. I am in that awkward stage where my regular clothes don't fit but my winter maternity clothes from last pregnancy are too big. So I have resorted to wearing flowy dresses with leggings or tights.
