20 weeks

20 weeks

20 weeks, 2 days

Weight: 132.4 lbs still gaining, finally!!
Symptoms: nausea, stretching, weird pounding heart
Sleep: sleep is still good
Cravings/Aversions: craving apples and fruit, that's about it! Still aversions to most foods
Workouts: none, still not feeling good!
Doctor Visits: at 20 weeks I took another trip to the ER. I was having symptoms of high blood pressure along with some upper body pain and an erratic heart rate. At the ER my blood pressure and EKG came back normal, even though my heart rate was really high. Basically they told me they have no idea what was wrong, but it wasn't anything horrible. At 20w5d we went for the anatomy scan. An hour long ultrasound where they take measurements of everything and we also found out the sex. As soon as we are able to tell the girls, we will announce the sex of baby! Baby was crazy active the entire ultrasound, it was really hard for the tech to get good images because baby wouldn't sit still. She said it was one of the most active babies she'd seen! Next week we have the follow up with the midwife.

19 weeks

19w2d

19w3d Halloween, white trash pregnant lady (no, I didn't actually drink lol)

Weight: 129.8 lbs, still going up but not quite back to my pre pregnancy weight
Symptoms: Still some nausea, but no vomiting most of the week. I had a decent vomit free streak until 19w5d when I vomited again. Then I started with some new symptoms that felt like high blood pressure and an erratic heart rate. Also lots of growing pains
Sleep: Sleep has been ok, but I've been waking up early and have trouble going back to sleep. I also was kept awake all night at 19w6d due to throbbing pain in my upper body and nausea
Cravings/Aversions: Starting to have some cravings, but took a huge step back and have been so sick that I have aversions to eating anything.
Workouts: No workouts, still too sick
Doctor Visits: No doctor visits
