Pregnancy Updates

Happy New Year! I'm pretty sure you enjoyed the holidays. We've still got hangover and the first day of work is excruciatingly long (and yeah, painful). So here are some updates to distract me from stressing out on work.

How far along? 14 weeks
Total weight gain: currently 134 lbs. 
Maternity clothes? Yes! I went on a shopping spree two weeks ago, mostly bottoms
Stretch marks? no new ones but veins on my legs, yeah!
Sleep: All the chance I can get (still)
Best moment this week: I survived the busy holiday schedule
Miss anything? Juicing
Food cravings: Sweet and cheesy spaghetti, tocino 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Brushing teeth and just being in the bathroom (which is all the time)
Gender: no idea (yet) Will find out in Feb 
Labor signs: none
Symptoms: Headaches are back, still feeling sick but less i guess
Belly button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? Off!
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: the next doctor's visit, anomaly scan results and gender results. Also, having smooth and shiny hair and probably a baby moon now that the first trimester is over.

Good News!

I feel that despite the absence of readers to this blog, I must still share the great news: We are expecting Baby # 2 and we all can't help but be excited for more good things to come. We found out last month but decided not to tell anyone yet before we get confirmation from the OB and see the ultrasound. It was a quiet kind of celebration for me, my husband, and our soon-to-be-Kuya as we stepped out of the OB's clinic. We are going to be parents to a newborn again. Oh, we can't wait for July 2015! Here are a few updates on this pregnancy which patterned from a blogger I recently followed:

How far along? 10 weeks, 2 days
Total weight gain: Haven't weighed
Maternity clothes? A few but still mostly on my regular clothes
Stretch marks? no new ones
Sleep: All the chance I can get
Best moment this week: Felt the baby somersault 
Miss anything? sushi
Food cravings: I may have been over the calamansi juice stage but I'm still craving for green mangoes and cake
Anything making you queasy or sick: coffee and milk
Gender: no idea 
Labor signs: none
Symptoms: Morning headaches have lessened significantly but the feeling of bloatedness, sore boobs, and occasional nausea still there
Belly button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: Finding out baby's gender next month.

Taken at 6 weeks and 4days

If ever I don't get to update, here's wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
