Hello all, Well 12 Weeks have come and gone. I am over 13 Weeks...so scrambling to get this post done...I need to figure out a better routine for my blogging/filming life <3 It's crazy trying to set time aside to do these things with 2 littles ones running around and a super busy husband! Lol. We are a pretty busy family...definitely something I want to focus on is making life a lot more simple for us! I finally feel like things are going back to normal now though...like I am able to handle life a little better. With just a schedule and being organized and having an actual routine...but things will get easier, especially as I get my groove going! Anyways there isn't a whole lot new this week. Friday night I had a "Date Night" with my love. We went out for Open Mic Night here at a local coffee shop! He even got to play with one of our friends. We hired our very first babysitter for the boys...she said they were so good! This past Saturday I went into Edmonton with my Sister-in-Law Emma! It was soo fun...and actually relaxing in a way. To just be able to go shopping without kids screaming...tired...and hungry....or Husbands getting impatient in the "girly stores" Lol. Sooo fun! Our hubby's don't even like to go with us anyways...so we decided that maybe we will start going more often together every month or two :) I am getting over my cold nicely (seems like it took forever this time around) and I think this was the very first week I had very minimal symptoms. A couple headaches and nausea only when we were in Edmonton (probably from the driving) I've got one more week before I am entering the 2nd Trimester and this...is...crazy! Anyways here are my questions for the week! Enjoy! How far along? 12 Weeks How big is baby? The size of a Plum. 2.1 inches. 0.49 ounces. About baby? Most of Baby's critical systems are fully formed, Baby's about to enter the growth & maturation stage (in which her organs and tissues will grow and develop rapidly), Baby is now developing her reflexes (if you poke baby's body, she/he will most likely move), Baby is opening and closing fingers and curling toes, His/Her brain is developing fast! Total weight gain and bump measurements: 4lbs total weight gain! 38inch baby bump! Maternity clothes? Maternity T-Shirt (I honestly don't remember where I got this shirt. I think Target in the States) Maternity Skinny Jeans in a Blue color :) Stretch marks? None. Sleep: Sleep is amazing <3 Best moment this week: Going to Edmonton with my Sister-in-Law to get shopping done...although my date with my Hubby was pretty great too though! Miss anything? Jayden had a Crabbie's Ginger Beer on our date night...so definitely one of those :( Movement: Not at all this week! Food cravings: Big ol' plate of nachos with beef on them! I was lucky enough that Open Mic Night had some there for us to order....soooo...Goood!!!!! Anything making you queasy or sick: Eggs :( Gender: Don't know yet. Labor signs: Nope. Symptoms: Headache's, Nausea a couple times this week, sore boobs! Belly button in or out? In. Wedding rings on or off? On. Happy or moody most of the time: Happy. Looking forward to: Starting 2nd Trimester!!!!!! Well that's it for the week. Crazy that I am already 13 Weeks today!!! But there was my 12 Week update for you! Sorry no video this week! :) Take care everyone! ...following my dreams...

Hello All, I am finally caught up on my blogging (well my pregnancy ones anyways) This is the first one that I will actually get to write on the actual day. Rather than just pulling it out of the drafts that I have been storing up for weeks now. Lol. Today I am 12 Weeks and 6 Days Pregnant. Yikes. That is crazy. The Baby is apparently the size of a Peach...imagine a peach in your hand. Isn't that insane???? This little one is growing so much. I get so exciting when I read about it's development. Especially about how small it started out. I am so in love with this little person already. I have finally reached the point where I feel pregnant and KNOW I am pregnant...Yay ;) This week was pretty awesome. We got back from Mexico on Saturday and then on Sunday we went to visit with my Family back home. We had so much fun there, I hate saying goodbye to them but this visit was short and sweet. I felt like complete crap pretty much the whole time I was there (I have a cold from Mexico...as well as my system is completely messed up from the food and flying) Traveling sucks...I've decided. Lol. It was super fun, but I am sure paying for it now. Today was the first day I actually started feeling better. I had a cup of coffee this morning and my tummy didn't for once feel like there was explosives in it!!! So here's hoping that the tummy aches are done. I cannot believe it is 2013!! How big is Baby for Week 12? The size of a large plum. That is so crazy to imagine. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!! I get to have another baby this Year...so exciting. SO much to look forward to. Anyways here are my Q's for the Week. Enjoy How far along? 12 Weeks 6 Days Pregnant Total weight gain and bump measurements: -2.1 lbs loss. Weight: 154.6 I must have lost weight being in Mexico and having this nasty cold too. 37.5 Inch Bump (2.5 Inch increase) Maternity clothes? My Maternity Shirt is from Thyme Maternity, it was one I bought during the first pregnancy. Jeans are my skinny jeans from Motherhood Maternity. Stretch marks? Nope Sleep: Still uncomfortable ;( But at least I get a full nights sleep Best moment this week: Visiting with my Family, I don't get to see them very often, so it is always awesome when I do. Miss anything? No. Movement: Not since the flight. Food cravings: Kraft Dinner and Hotdogs. Anything making you queasy or sick: No. Gender: Don't know Labor signs: No. Symptoms: Crampy, Back-aches, headaches, boobs hurt Belly button in or out? In. Wedding rings on or off?

...following my dreams... -Cynthia Hello, So life has been crazy busy. I am sorry for not getting any updates done. But I did a youtube update for you all :) Enjoy ...following my dreams... -Cynthia Hello,
So we had our Prenatal appointment on April 25th, 2011. I was exactly 12 weeks that day! They took my weight...I was 153 Pounds (So I have gained about 6 pounds since I've been pregnant) That was my weight about a month ago too, so it's staying the same...hopefully for a long while! Doctor asked me what my questions where (expecting me to have tonnes) I was like I don't know I don't really have any...the biggest one was I don't feel pregnant most of the time! I have no Pregnancy Symptoms! Ok but that's a lie, I am tired a lot, hungry a lot, my boobs hurt a lot, my stomach is sure getting bigger, I am gassy, I am bloaty, I am emotional....oh so emotional. So really the only symptom I don't have is puking...well I can live with that! No honestly I feel so lucky to not be really ill through this pregnancy! I feel like "I can do this" a lot of times. The other question I had was the whole fitness thing and what I can do and what I can't do...cause I heard so many different things from different people. Doctor says I can do what I want and what I did do before I was pregnant! I can Dance, I can do cardio, I can do aerobics, I can do weight lifting and I am so excited to do all those things. So she took my blood pressure and it was a lot more normal than last time it got checked. Then the most wonderful thing happened in that Doctor's room. We heard the smallest, most beautiful little heartbeat in the world! It was the most special moment of my life to this day. I didn't cry (But if it was only Jayden and I in there I sure would have) It was so beautiful, beyond any words I can describe. All my doubt about if I was even pregnant was GONE! I am so blessed, I am so thankful to be carrying this little angel! It was so fast...that little heartbeat <3 I am totally in Love...and Jayden is too! Praise Jesus for this little bundle growing inside me! Every single day I think to myself "WOW this is actually happening...I am going to be a Mama" Like for real. I have waited a long while for this to happen and it is finally here. This pregnancy has brought us so much closer to eachother too. Husband and Wife...soon to be Mommy and Daddy! US...Jayden and I are going to be Parents. We are going to have a tiny little baby in a few short months! What a gift! Thank you so much for reading...hopefully I will get to do some video's soon enough for those of you who like to watch them! I can't wait to show our baby all this stuff I am documenting when they are older! That is the true reason I am doing this in the first place...for the baby's But it is really nice to get comments and experience stories from you guys too! So thanks for supporting us through this Special time in our life! ...following my dreams... -Cynthia |
