Went to the OB this morning. Everything looks great. I love to hear that strong heartbeat! I have been looking for a fun pregnancy record book like I had with Roman and can't find one anywhere. So, I am going to use my blog as that..so bare with me as I get detailed. I have been feeling better- not as nauseated not as tired.It was very important for me with Roman and going into this pregnancy to want to be healthy and strong which meant eating well and working out. Well, I got off to a rocky start. I hadn't lifted weights in 6 weeks and I have been doing cardio maybe 4 times a week..which feels super slack to me. So I went and did a leg workout yesterday which consisted of one set of lunges and some dead lifts..and I was done. Seriously, I was so sore i couldn't do anymore. How did I get out of shape so fast? Usually I have to do legs for an hour to feel anything. It does feel good though to be that slack and still get a burn. As for eating, I have an aversion to salads but strong cravings for pizza...so I have just been going with it hoping it will change soon..Other things on my gotta eat list, grapes, peaches, bagels with veggie cream cheese, nutella sandwiches, peanut butter, tootsie rolls, rice, and cereal. So, next week my goal is to start my weight lifting routine again 3 times a week. It would really help if my gym didn't smell like sulfer/chlorine...oh well.
I am really going crazy wanting to know if this is a boy or a girl. I am thinking boy for a few reasons. 1) thats what the chinese calendar said 2) the way we were trying to conceive gives the boy swimmers an advantage 3) I havn't actually thrown up once 4)I can't imagine my body making a girl 5)I am craving the same foods I did with Roman..So we will just have to wait and see...and as an aside..if it does happen to be a girl- all you mommy friends know you can pass on your cute daughters clothes ;-)....Here are some pics of the belly..it is starting to poke.
oh...weight gain stat- 0. Or back to starting point...I lost a few to start with and gained those back...so I say 0.
And...we have finally settled on a boy and girl name. The boy name was the absolute hardest..but we are pleased with our decision, guess you'll just have to wait to know if its a boy or a girl before we drop the name!Don't worry- we wont make you wait till delivery day to find out like before!
Happy Mother Day!

So glad to hear that all is well! You certainly look great,no weight gain for sure! I slacked off at the gym too with #2...much harder! Keep working at it though, it makes after that much faster...I think??@!
Geez, slacker! I can't believe you! Totally kidding, of course! I think you will be back up to your weight lifting routine in no time! Glad you are feeling better! With Noah, I had an aversion to salads, too! Not with Kendall though...so maybe you ARE having another boy! Can't wait to find out....do you know when yet??
Cute belly shots! Congrats on the good Dr report! I can't wait to see what it is!
Check you out! I know you are going CRAZY not working out! But you still look GOOD!!!! Those are fun things to crave - who doesn't love a pizza!!! I can't wait to find out if it's a GIRL or a BOY! there are some great clothes either way!!!!
Hey...maybe I will see you at the gym soon...we still go in the mornings but I may have to switch to evenings. Glad you are doing well and feeling better. You are very brave to allow Andrew to take so many photos of you...your belly is precious. Mine is bigger than yours and I'm not even pregnant! Take care...hope to see you soon.
You look amazing! Don't beat yourself up too much on the fitness stuff. Your body's focused on that growing child. Love the picture of you & Roman. Very curious about the names....
