Sorry late again on my weigh in. I won’t bore you with the statistics again, I weighed in on the 7th and maintained my weight again at 162lbs. I am hoping to make it to my second trimester (just 4 weeks to go) at this same weight.
Well, I am ashamed and embarrassed to admit that my diet has been awful and I log in only a minuscule 15 minutes of exercise this week! I must do better this week. Even if all I get in is 15 minutes a day, at least it’s something. The nausea has lessened, mainly because I’ve skipped my prenatals for the last 3 days. I know I need them but they really don’t help me feel better. I’m considering just doubling up on Flintstones vitamins or something like that, that’ll be easier on my tummy.
I got so sick today. I’m really concerned about my blood sugar. Reason being is that this is the 3rd Sunday in a row I’ve gotten sick like this. The only thing that makes sense is during the week I eat every 2 hours. On Sunday’s I eat in the morning around 8-9am and then don’t eat again until close to 1-2pm. I’m going to start carrying some cheese crackers and hard candy in my purse to have during service (the candy, not the crackers lol!) to keep my sugar level. I’m going to talk to my doctor about this. She may want to screen me for gestational diabetes.
I know it’s too early supposedly, but I’m starting to perceive movement in my uterus. It may not be the baby but rather my uterus growing, but there’s definitely something going on in there! I am starting to develop a “baby bump.” It’s mostly maternal water retention I’m sure but it’s making my clothes being to fit awkwardly! I still look like me though. No one would ever guess I was expecting. Well, I think I’ll lay down for a while now…I feel better but still shaky. I will update again soon!
Blessings,
Kassandra
