  • How far along are you?
    13w4d

    What goals do you have for this week?
    Just trying to stay active and keep weight gain to a minimum.

    Any successes from last week (scale or otherwise)?
    hmmm I'm just kinda chugging along here

    What are you doing to stay active?
    Trying to take a 30-40 min walk at last every other day. Been pretty good about it.

    Any other struggles you are working through?
    These headaches are getting to me. They aren't super terrible But it's just like a nagging ache that won't quit.

    What are your current cravings?
    Right now I'm loving string cheese and girl scout cookies. No joke, I bought 10 boxes of cookies the other day because cookie season is coming to a close and I panicked that I'd need GS cookies later on in my pregnancy and I wouldn't have them. Then I felt guilty and left most of them at work to be eaten by co-workers so I'm not over indulging. It's a struggle.

    Rants/Raves/Questions/Concerns?
    Ok I feel like this is a stupid/embarrassing/tmi question, but do you ladies groom before going to the obgyn? Because I always have, but this last appointment was so annoying to shave my legs and everything else when my hot water heater has been acting up after about 5 minutes in the shower. I can only imagine the motivation decreasing as I get bigger and appointments are more frequent. I mean the OB probably doesn't really care right?

    GTKY: What is your sign and Do you believe in astrology?
    I'm a Virgo but I don't think I really believe in that stuff. DH is an Aries so we are supposed to hate each other which id's crazy to me. But my co-worker is super into it and always taking about her horoscope and stuff.

    Clean my house before DH gets home next week...oh and eat healthier

    Any successes from last week (scale or otherwise)?
    I haven't weighed myself this week, but I'm starting to be able to eat real food again, so I am trying to make more healthy choices and bought healthy stuff (kale salads and frozen smoothie stuff) from the grocery store

    What are you doing to stay active?
    mmm....next question....wait no I have been doing some yard tidying up preparing for spring

    Any other struggles you are working through?
    staying active...

    Rants/Raves/Questions/Concerns?
    DH COMES HOME NEXT WEEK!!!! 

    GTKY: What is your sign and Do you believe in astrology?
    Scorpio. Yeah, I am pretty much a true Scorpio woman in every aspect of it. Google it...yep that is me. My DH is a Libra and his need for everything to be on an even keel and peace keeping sometimes drives me up a wall, but he keeps me grounded.

    12+1
    What goals do you have for this week?
    Eating healthy, being more active at home. I've been a slug and left it all to DH, but I need to get more involved cause the laundry is piling up!
    Any successes from last week (scale or otherwise)?
    I gained a little over a pound, after having lost 11. But it's back down this morning. I've been REALLY good about drinking water, although it's hard considering I have to "go" so often!
    What are you doing to stay active?
    We are pet sitting a puppy right now, that's a lot of work. Otherwise I'm just doing what I can...walking etc...
    Any other struggles you are working through?
    On Sunday morning I could not find baby's heartbeat w/ my doppler. Scared me so much! We have an ultrasound tomorrow morning so I will be happy to see him.
    What are your current cravings?
    No cravings but my egg salad sandwich was so good just now!
    Rants/Raves/Questions/Concerns?
    Has any other plus size moms been told you will have to do the glucose test 2x? 
    GTKY: What is your sign and Do you believe in astrology?
    I'm an aries. DH is aquarias. That's all I know about astrology.

    Rants/Raves/Questions/Concerns? @SuzieMay827
     i do groom b4 my OB but its mostly because I feel like i should? Its funny bc with my pregnancy with DS one time my ob asked me in the middle of a pelvic exam if i always shaved lol and i was like yeah (total lie) and she said just stop shaving and let it grow lol. Idk what made her say that but im guessing theyve seen it all
