*Whew* 15 weeks & feeling better!


Yay! I am 15 weeks today and am feeling soooo much better. I can't believe I am finally out of my first trimester. I am still feeling a little nauseous, but I have SO much more energy now. I have been cleaning and cooking a little again - it feels great. Not to mention Brandon has been loving it too!

I have even started eating better and have already gained 9 pounds since my first doctor's visit! Yikes - but the midwife assures me this is totally fine. But I usually get that response from everyone anyway. Nobody feels bad for the pregnant lady shaped like a toothpick. It feels so weird to gain so much weight so fast, I haven't weighed this much in years...

My parents visited this last week and we made a trip up to Wild Waves ... there's not a whole lot a pregnant lady can do up there, but my Mom and I had a lot of fun snuggling with baby Trenton and riding on the kiddy train rides with Aurora, well, the ones I could go on. It's amazing the restrictions for the preggers - I still went on the carousel and the mini Ferris wheel .... ssshhh.
