6 Weeks and our first Ultrasound!

I can't believe that 6 weeks has come and gone! I really have had a great pregnancy so far, I haven't been sick and have only had a few days of nausea. I am grateful and hopeful that it will stay this way! As of April 30th, we are officially 6 weeks.


I am not showing much (other then my belly from before! haha). During week 6 I ran a Half Marathon Relay, well ran is really an understatement I walked more then run haha. After this race I decided no more planned runnning, I got winded so fast and figure there are lots of other cardio that I can do that is much less impact on my lungs! I am hoping to get my bike out soon and do that most of the summer into the fall! Farewell running, I will see you next year! :)

How I am feeling:
I feel pretty good, like I said above a few days pop up with nausea but other then that I feel good! I am able to eat but I do tend to get fuller faster and I have to eat more regularly! I also have to pee a lot! How can something that small already do so many things to me! Haha I order some preggie pops that a few pregger friends suggested. I figured I better have them on hand just in case I do get sick! I haven't had to use a lot of them, but a few times they have come in handy! I also used them on my run.



Sleep:
Sleep isn't the best but it isn't the worst.  I had a friend tell me to get the snoogle right away, so I ordered it and it came! It does make quite the difference! However, I am still waking up often to go to the bathroom.


Best Moment of the week:
I would say the best moment this week was our ultrasound! Like I said in an earlier post, we weren't suppose to have an ultrasound but when we shared our concerns with our doctor she ordered one for us.  There is nothing wrong, but we just selfishly want to see our baby and hear its heartbeat! The heartbeat was 109 and it was pretty crazy what we could see on the ultrasound! She had warned us that it could still be pretty early and we may not see much.  I was glad she was wrong, it was amazing to hear the heartbeat! Tavid was grinning from ear to ear!


We also told my cousins the exciting news! I decided I wanted to tell them in person, and tried to organize as many of us to meet up for pizza in Austin at Steves.  Our grandparents used to take all of us there regularly.  A few weren't able to make it, but those that were, we pretty excited! I told the rest of them through a Facebook message!


Cravings:
I have gone from wanting salty to wanting sweet.  I have noticed that some sweet things get to be too much and just a taste is enough! Which is NOT normal for me, I LOVE Sweets! I have wanted French Onion Sun Chips, and let me tell you they are IMPOSSIBLE to find. I never found them except online but my craving wasn't that big that I needed to order them.  But maybe in the future! :) I also am loving ice cream, watermelon, green grapes, and pineapple!
