Today was my second appointment (and the third time I’ve gone for a doctor’s appointment: if you don’t remember the hilarious story I mentioned before – I went for this appointment a week ago! Silly pregnancy brain!). I convinced Dan to come, because I really wanted him to hear our baby’s heartbeat. I didn’t want…

Orange You Glad its a BABY?
How far along?: 15 Weeks! Total weight gain/loss: Down 0.7 lbs. (Down 3.4 lbs in total). I am not sure if I should be worrying that I am really not gaining weight (although Dan can’t believe that I am not gaining a thing. He is sure I have gained a tonne!) How big is baby:…
Lemony Fresh
How far along?: 14 Weeks! Total weight gain/loss: Absolutely no change from last week. (I’m still down 2.7 lbs in total). How big is baby: My baby is the size of a Lemon! According to What To Expect When You’re Expecting, baby is also the size of a clenched fist. “That makes no sense” Dan…
Aren’t you just a peach!
How far along?: 13 Weeks! Total weight gain/loss: Up 0.4 lbs. (I’m still down 2.7 lbs in total). How big is baby: My baby is the size of a Peach! She has unique fingertips now! Awww! (Dan says “Isn’t a plum and a peach the same size?” Apparently he is now impressed by our baby’s…
Knock Knock?
Hello World! I finally got the a-ok to tell everyone about my pregnancy! I’ve been waiting until I could tell a job I’ve been interviewing for. I decided to let them know upfront to avoid stress later. It is always better to be honest, right? But now that I have told them, I don’t have…
Tales of an Angry Pregnant Woman
Alright, let me be blunt. Pregnancy makes me tired. It makes me emotional, and therefore I get irritated quite quickly. I am irritated now. I was irritated earlier today. I was irritated yesterday. I will probably be irritated tomorrow. So, what’s up tonight? It is 7:30pm and I haven’t eaten a meal since my bowl…
Plum Love
How far along?: 12 Weeks! Total weight gain/loss: down 0.2 lbs from last week, which is funny because I feel HUGE at the moment! How big is baby: My baby is the size of a Plum! Maternity clothes?: Still the same answer as last week. I haven’t gotten anything since the maternity pants for work…
How are you Feeling?
This is a question that I get a lot from anyone who knows that I am pregnant. As the first trimester draws to a close, I am feeling so much better than I have been. It was so hard to believe that I would EVER get to the second trimester, especially when I was feeling…
My Summertime Lime
How far along?: 11 Weeks Pregnant! Total weight gain/loss: gained 0.7 lbs this week, which is still down 3 lbs from my prepregnancy weight. How big is baby: My baby is the size of a Lime, roughly 1.6in long! Maternity clothes?: Yup – but probably not because I am in super need of it right…
Big Fat Positive
So, how did all this happen to bring me to this point: 10 weeks and 4 days pregnant, hearing a baby’s heartbeat for the first time? Well, I could start at the very beginning (a very good place to start)… but this isn’t really that type of blog, is it? I won’t lie. I’ve been…
First Appointment
It finally came. I have been waiting for what seemed like FOREVER for my first prenatal doctor’s appointment. Before the appointment I didn’t know what to think. Was I really pregnant? Should I have taken more than one at home pee test before believing the result? Was that cramp normal? What about that headache? Of…
