Sleep: I am back to sleeping through the night, but now I'm having really crazy dreams.
Movement: Not yet.
Food cravings: Nothing very specific now that I am feeling nauseous after meals.

Best moment this week: Seeing baby again at today's ultrasound, this time with Nick by my side :)
Nick was out of town for work most of the week. Apollo and I went for a nice walk on Friday. Saturday morning my Mom and sister picked me up for a day of shopping. We haven't done that in forever. I sure needed it!
I am starting to feel, uh, weird I guess? That's the only word I can think of to describe it. My emotions have been all over the place. One minute I am super happy and the next minute I am crying. I was really spacey during the first half of our shopping trip. Then my Mom walked away while I was telling a story and I started crying LOL. I was shocked at my own reaction, but I couldn't really help it. I guess it's to be expected with all of these hormonal changes. People aren't exaggerating when they talk about crazy pregnant women, huh?! ;)

:D Congratulations! I love the story about your shopping trip! Hello Hormones! lol!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I totally forgot about the dreams! i remember them being SUPER vivid and super weird. Hmm, I wonder why that is. Yay for the hearbeat next week!
ReplyDeletelol, yep, the hormones really do creep up on you! I thought I was doing awesome hormonally this whole pregnancy... until last week, when I couldn't decide what I wanted to eat, so I burst in to uncontrollable tears.. At that point, you kind of take a step back from yourself and think "Wow, who the heck am I???" :) Turns out, I wanted a score blizzard from Dairy Queen.. who knew? ;)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a great ultrasound. I can't wait to read your future post once you get to hear baby's heartbeat. Best sound ever!! :) Good luck at your next appointment!
