This past weekend my sister and her fiance came into town for her birthday. We had a nice dinner out with family. I am hiding my baby bump in this pic...:)
Tonight is my last night of summer school and I am looking forward to a short break before the fall semester starts. My poor husband hasn't had dinner cooked for him in over a month and I am glad I will get to eat dinner before 8:30p.m.
Pregnancy update:
For the most part the all day nausea is gone and I haven't actually thrown up in a week...(I am not holding my breath on that one though).
I am still trying to run however lately it seems to have turned into walking some ...and jogging some (then again it is 95 degrees outside), and as noted in a previous post I am going to try to do yoga once a week.
I have been pretty forgetful and distracted (as is expected I am sure) though I am worried my students question my intellect and sanity at times.
My clothes do not fit and it is a challenge to find something that I feel good in on a daily basis.
When I hit the end of 17 weeks the first and second night I had heartburn and indigestion. The first night I had watermelon as a snack before I went to bed and a cup of hot tea. The second night I had my dinner too late because of school. I tried milk and tums. I slept 6 hours the first night and 4 hours the second night. By the third day I was exhausted and annoyed. I eventually found that if I cut off drinking and eating 3 hours before bed and if I take extra strength liquid mylanta that I can sleep heartburn and indigestion free.
I have heard from everyone that the second trimester is the best time in the pregnancy. Someone called it the honeymoon period of the pregnancy. I beg to differ at this point...however I haven't felt Baby Verno move yet so maybe when that happens I will feel differently.
Here's a pic where you can see my baby bump...does it look like a girl or a boy???This pic was taken the same day as the other one. I am 16 weeks and 5 days in this photo.
