18 Weeks: Sweet Potatoe

How Far Along: 18 Weeks, Sweet Potatoe
Total Weight Gain: haven't weighed myself. wouldn't be surprised if I gained some

Maternity Clothes: Yup, all the time except for scrubs, I am now wearing non-scrub tops since my scrub tops are getting too tight and uncomfortable. 

 Stretch Marks:

Sleep: Sleep is fine. I need to adjust more often but I seem to be able to get comfortable eventually.

 Best Moment This Week: ANATOMY SCAN!!!!! I have a secret = )

 Miss Anything:  Most the lack of energy

Movement: I feel baby once in a while. I learned at the a/s that I have an anterior placenta so that may be why I don't feel it too dominantly

 Anything Making You Queasy or Sick: Nothing consistant. I get waves of nausea sometimes, which is weird, but it tends to pass. 

Cravings: Coca-cola and crawfish!! I finally got some on Wed. night!! YUMMMMM

Gender: = ) I have a secret

Labor Signs: waaay too early.
Symptoms: Nauseous once in a while, little pains on my right side that I have decided is baby kicking my insides. boobies are fabulous.

Belly Button In or Out: In 

Wedding Rings On or Off: On

Feeling:I feel wonderful overall. I am just so so excited to tell everyone about the gender March 1st. It feels so much more real being able to put the correct pronoun to the baby and calling baby by name = )

Exercise:  More than it has been! The weather has been amazing!! I played disc golf last weekend which was really really weird. Whenever I threw the frisbee it was like the baby jiggled from side to side. I don't recommend it.

Looking Forward To: Gender reveal BBQ on March 1st!!

 Next Appointment: March 5th with my OB

 

Don't forget to vote on what you think the baby is!!! 

And I took these pictures before the a/s so don't read into the color of my shirt.

 

 

What Will Baby Bedi Be?

This will be a short post. I have added a poll on the sidebar of my blog so you can cast your vote on what you think baby Bedi will be!!

We have our Anatomy Scan on Thursday where we will *hopefully* find out if we are team blue or team pink. We can't tell you right away though = )

We are planning a dinner BBQ for our parents on March 1st. So, after they know, you will know = )

Poll will end Feb. 28th!

Go on... cast your vote!

17 Weeks: Pear

How Far Along: 17 Weeks, Pear (I don't have an onion so I dub this week Pear week)
Total Weight Gain: haven't weighed myself. wouldn't be surprised if I gained some

Maternity Clothes: Yup, all the time except for scrubs, I am now wearing non-scrub tops since my scrub tops are getting too tight and uncomfortable. 

 Stretch Marks:

Sleep: Sleep is ok,I didn't sleep well last night but that isn't normal for me. I did buy a U shaped pillow from Amazon and it is great! Hubby likes it too = )

 Best Moment This Week: I just love feeling baby kick once in a while. I had a Pharmacology test on Friday which I made a 96 on and I had lunch with my grandparents = )

 Miss Anything:  same...I do miss having more energy to help around the house. I feel so worthless sometimes.

Movement: I feel him/her once in a while but it isn't very consistent and usually a few days in between kicks.

 Anything Making You Queasy or Sick: Not really, I did have to take Zofran 8mg twice on Monday but none today. It really varies day by day. I did almost throw up in my new car tonight which was a panic experiance. 

Cravings:Cinnamon toast crunch and regular coke. I am trying to limit my coke (not crack cocaine...the drink) to one can/bottle per day. I haven't had regular coke in years, so this is very weird for me.

Gender: Meh 50/50

Labor Signs: waaay too early.
Symptoms:Nauseous once in a while, unpredictable. I am getting pretty bad headaches which aren't being relieved by Tylenol.

Belly Button In or Out: In 

Wedding Rings On or Off: On

Feeling: I still feel ok. Still really overwhelmed at times. It feels like things are going so fast sometimes and like I am running out of time. School and work are stressing me out as well (mostly school). 

Exercise:  Still pretty minimal, so cold outside.

Looking Forward To: Finding out the gender and being able to really shop!!!

 Next Appointment: Anatomy scan is Feb. 20th!!!!

Sweet 16 Weeks: Avocado

How Far Along: 16 Weeks, Avocado (yes, I went out to get an Avocado for this picture)
Total Weight Gain: back at base weight

Maternity Clothes: Yup, all the time except for scrubs.

 Stretch Marks: I don't want to answer this question anymore.

Sleep: Sleep is ok, but definitely getting more uncomfortable. I do plan to order a pillow from Amazon that is "U" shaped. I just have to suck down the price tag. It will be worth it...right?

 Best Moment This Week: We had our OB appt yesterday and they found the most beautiful heart beat right away!! 148bpm. Everything is on track and we were told we could get our anatomy scan in two weeks!! 

 Miss Anything: I am coming to the conclusion that I will want what i can't have. Beer craving, be gone!!

Movement: I definitely felt him/her on Saturday! It was like a little "pop"/flutter. so weird!

 Anything Making You Queasy or Sick:Things have been really good the past couple of days. I get nauseous randomly with nothing that seems to trigger it. I ran out of the Zofran my RE wrote for my back in November and I was worried my OB wouldn't reorder it because she is "bare minimum" OB. Well....not only did she re-write it but she insisted on writing me for 8mg zofran instead of 4mg. I will probably just break them in half. I can't see myself taking a full 8mg. 

Cravings:Meh, no. 

Gender: I will be shocked if it's a girl, let's put it that way = )

Labor Signs: waaay too early.
Symptoms: Symptoms have been to a minimum lately. I did vomit on Sunday after the super bowl, but it was a pretty nauseating game. Round Ligament pain is definitely present, which is pretty uncomfortable. I have had trouble with nearly fainting when I am in the shower due to me having the water too hot and vasodilation occuring, so blood goes to baby. It has been sooooo hard not putting the water so hot, especially since it has been so cold outside. I could probably put "hot ass shower" in my "Miss anything" section.

Belly Button In or Out: In 

Wedding Rings On or Off: On

Feeling: I feel fine, so exciting for our anatomy scan on Feb. 20th and overwhelmed with work and school. 

Exercise:  Still pretty minimal, so cold outside.

Looking Forward To: Finding out the gender and being able to really shop!!!

 Next Appointment: Anatomy scan is Feb. 20th!!!!

15 Weeks- Naval Orange

How Far Along: 15 Weeks, Naval Orange
Total Weight Gain: -3 lbs

Maternity Clothes: Yup, maternity pants almost exclusively when I am not in my scrubs! I got some new tops in the mail (I am wearing one in the picture) and they are so cute!!

 Stretch Marks: No, no new ones

Sleep: Sleep is getting a little harder. I'm getting a lot more uncomfortable on my left lying position, I am having to use a lot of pillows to prop up my leg!

 Best Moment This Week: We got our stroller in the mail, my MIL bought us me a Petunia Pickle Bottom Diaper bag!! and we bought a cute dresser off of craigslist for only $155!

 Miss Anything: I will really miss having a beer during the super bowl with the chicken wings!! Oh well = )

Movement: Maybe! I feel like I might have felt a little pop/flutter a few days ago. I am hoping it will become more evident soon!

 Anything Making You Queasy or Sick: Things have actually been pretty good the past couple of days. I will get nauseous randomly but once I take Zofran I am good to go! I have stopped being too concerned about taking the Zofran, I prefer to feel nauseous-free = )

Cravings: Pot Roast!! The problem with that is you can't just "pick one up" and it takes 9 hours to make. So I did and it is soooooo good!!

Gender: I still think it's a boy...ok I"m about 50% sure it's a boy.

Labor Signs: waaay too early.
Symptoms:Symptoms have really decreased a lot. Over all I feel good. Round ligament pain did start a few days ago and that hurts like a mofo!!! Dizam! I think I had 3 vomiting episodes last week?

Belly Button In or Out: In 

Wedding Rings On or Off: On

Feeling: I feel fine just ready for our appointment on Tuesday!!

Exercise:  Still pretty minimal. The weather has been crazy! Snowing one day and 70 degrees a couple days later. I walk when I can.

Looking Forward To: Our next OB appt.and finding out the gender in like 3 weeks!! Although I have a feeling we won't be able to do the a/s until 20 weeks...so 5 more weeks.

 Next Appointment: OB appt. 2/4
