A "baby bump" picture has been requested, so while I'm documenting my ever-changing body, I will also jot down a few facts for my record (which you may or may not find of interest).
1st Trimester:
-Cravings: Lays potato chips & french onion dip, macaroni & cheese, Speghetti O's, & basically anything that was salty.
-Total Weight Gain: 4 lbs (which, by the way I was eating I'm surprised it wasn't more!)
-Cravings: Citrus (oranges, grape fruits, lemon, lime, etc), Sonic strawberry limeades, salty food cravings have disappeared, & cucumbers...thankfully, healthier foods (well, besides the weekly Sonic drinks).
-Total Weight Gain @ 16 wk appt: 8 lbs (eek!)
So, there it is...I don't know how long the "Total Weight Gain" category will last. ;)
As for Toby & I, we are still just SO extremely thankful for this incredible blessing & can't help but thank God each & every day! Our continued prayers are for a healthy pregnancy & a healthy baby...& we find out April 5th whether our little nugget is a Boy or a Girl (Toby is convinced & had a pretty vivid dream that it was a boy...so, we'll see)!
