11 Weeks

I am 11 weeks today. I am soooo grateful to be pregnant. I can not wait to see my little bundle of joy. I am feeling much better these past few days. I still have a few symptoms:
• Crazy emotional (Jay calls me a cry baby because I cry all the time.)
• Car Sickness (It is getting much better.)
I feel so blessed to only have these two. I still weigh everyday which is helping me staying on track. I still have only gained 5 pounds. I am hoping now that I am not as tired I will do a lot more exercising. The weather is so pretty right now. It is going to be close to 80 degrees this Friday.

Now I become very irritable if I am hungry or tired. I am always taking it out on Jay. He is such a wonderful husband. He actually dusted the back bedrooms last night AFTER cooking dinner. After cheerleading try outs last week I was TIRED. Each day gets easier.

I have been taking belly pictures every week. Last week was a noticeable change. I am going to post them soon. I ordered some maternity dresses from old navy and gap. I am please to say I ordered medium dresses and 12 bermuda shorts. I am wearing the dresses this week. I am to the point that I do not want things touching my belly.

I have a few goals I want to put on my blog:
1. No more McDonalds for breakfast
2. Slow and steady weight gain (I am going to try really hard only to gain 25 – 30 pounds.)
3. I also want to get back to my wedding weight after the baby. I had gained weight after the first lost and never seemed to get it back off. I want to weight 160 – 165 pounds after the baby is born.

What a great week!!! I can not wait until my appointment next week to check on the baby. I want him/her to be okay.

Names:
BOY
• Gaines ? Worthy
GIRL
• Lilly Grace Worthy (My favorite)
• Riley Grace Worthy (We both like a lot.)
• Isabella Grace Worthy (Jay’s favorite)
• Addison Grace Worthy
• Jayden Elizabeth Worthy

10 Weeks

I am 10 weeks today. What a wonderful feeling!!! I would like to think I am not a sickly person but this pregnancy does not make me feel 100% all the time. As of today I have gained 5 pounds. I am really concerned about the weight gain. We went to the doctor this past week. She was able to do an abdominal ultra sound this time. You could not tell much other then a circle with a BEATING HEART. I asked her several questions. This was my first time this pregnancy to see Dr. Grogan. She will be the doctor I see for now on. I love her!!! She told me that 4 pounds is perfectly fine. She wants me to gain slow and stead. I told her I think 2 pounds and my boobs. My next appointment is April 8th.

My symptoms:

  1. Sore boobs (It makes me nervous because they are not as sore as they once were.)
  2. CAR SICKNESS (I have really bad car sickness. I am constantly begging Jay to walk and not drive.) Jose gave me some medicine but the medicine makes you sleepy so I can’t take it.
  3. Sleepy (I sleep a lot but I have slowly started getting better.)
  4. Constipation (One minute I am going to the bathroom out of control and the next it is a struggle. This is not an everyday thing.)
  5. This past week I have gotten a few head aches but nothing to bad.
  6. GAS GAS GAS (Poor Jay)
  7. Emotional ups and downs!!!

Most of all I love being pregnant! I noticed my bump starting to poke out this past weekend. I am not sure if it is from all the gas or I am actually starting to show. Either way I have a bump and I am excited.

Several people I know have fallen pregnant this month. How exciting!!!!

I AM PREGNANT!

I am the happiest girl in the world. I am 8 weeks today. We have been to the doctor 3 times so far. The baby is in my uterus and we also got to see the heart beating. My numbers look good this go round (they are doubling)! As you can see I quit writing on my blog for a few months. I had become so bitter and mad at the world…I JUST WANTED A BABY!

Here is my weekly progress so far:

WEEK 4:
I found out I was pregnant on February 10th, 2010. This was the greatest day of my life. I had taken a test the day before and got no result. The next morning I woke up and got it out of the trash can…and what would you know “IT WAS POSITIVE.” Jay ran out that morning before school and got another test. I took one 2/10/10 and within seconds I was pregnant. We called Jose and made an appointment to get blood work. My first numbers were 5,000. Higher then they ever got on the ectopic. I WAS SO HAPPY. Jay was still nervous.

WEEK 5:
Still on top of the world! My symptoms:
Sore boobs (just a little)
Tired (I would go to sleep right after school and wake up at 4:50a.m.)
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

WEEK 6:
My symptoms:
Nausea (not to bad…mainly in the afternoon after lunch when my classroom is hot.)
Sore boobs (they are huge…so much bigger that even Jay can tell they have grown .)
Tired (I would go to sleep right after school and wake up at 4:50a.m.) I am now early to work everyday!
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY
A little scared that something might go wrong.

WEEK 7:
My symptoms:
Nausea is getting better. I have it once every 3 or 4 days. I am so lucky.
Sore boobs (cold weather makes them a little sore or first thing in the morning.
I do not require as much sleep as the past few weeks.

WEEK 8:
SO FAR THIS IS AN AMAZING PREGNANCY. I AM SO VERY HAPPY! JAY IS GOING TO MAKE AN AMAZING FATHER.

Not to make other pregnant woman jealous BUT my husband is so much better then yours. Jay has been the best support system a girl could have. All he wants is for me to be HAPPY. He will cook, clean, and make beds just so I do not have too!
