Gender: Not finding out! We love surprises!
Weight gain: I actually lost weight this week due
to all of my sickness. The doctor says if this continues
I will have to take some anti-nausea meds, but I'm
going to try to hold off as long as I can.

Maternity clothes: Not yet, but maybe soon!
Stretch Marks: No
Belly Button in or out: In
Sleep: As I have said before, I've always been a
stomach sleeper. I have often wondered how I would sleep once
I got pregnant. My body has naturally been having me sleep on my
side. Isn't it weird how our bodies just know?!

Best moment this week: Our ultrasound appointment!
Seeing the two flickering heart beats made my heart flutter.
Worst moment this week: Our ultrasound appointment.
The two days leading up to the appointment, I had lost all
pregnancy symptoms. I was hungry (which has been rare), my boobs
didn't hurt any more, I didn't feel as tired. After last year's miscarriage,
I was afraid I knew what this meant. Loss of pregnancy symptoms
means loss of baby. So the day of our ultrasound, I woke up
in the morning and took a pregnancy test to make sure I was
still pregnant. I was freaked out when that double line was so faint
I could barely see it! I cried when I left the house and all the way to work
thinking that we had lost our baby again.
Darn 3:45 appointments.
This day was going to be the longest day of my life!
Fortunately, it ended with our best moment of the week
(see above!).

Miss anything: Food, but what's new?!
Movement: No
Cravings: Fruit! I cannot get enough!
Queasy or sick: Some days I'm really sick, others not so much.
Ginger ale before getting out of bed has been a miracle cure!

Merry Christmas to all!

TWINS! Oh my goodness, how exciting!!! Congrats Tiffany!!! I totally understand how you felt the day of your ultrasound appointment. That happened to me when I was around 11 weeks with Kennedy. I had been super sick up until then and then it just stopped. I immediately called my dr to schedule another ultrasound and there she was, moving around and a steady heartbeat. Sometimes that just happens but when you have had a miscarriage or in my case two, things like that scare the crap out of you!
ReplyDeleteI will never forget the day you texted me that you were pregnant and then followed it up with TWINS!!!! Sooo exciting! I LOVE that you are not finding out their genders! xoxo
