16 Weeks - Pregnancy Update

Date: May 21st

Well since this is the final baby tour

I guess I need to start taking pics and documenting it.

Usually I can get away until about 20-24 weeks before I start getting a baby bump.

But this time around my body is like

"Oh hey it's baby time again!  I know exactly what to do!  

Let me just pop out early and make you some extra comfy room to wiggle and play!"
(or let's be real maybe it's just the extra 7 lbs I never lost from having Laiklyn! sigh)

Maybe that's good for the baby.

But ugh long pregnancy for me to already be feeling and looking 

like I'm 6 mos prego when I'm only 4 mos!!

So here I am at 16 weeks.

As for everything else,

I'm still uncomfortably shoving myself into my normal clothes

and in denial I need to buy a bigger size of britches.

I still have acid reflux 

EVERY.SINGLE.MOMENT.OF.EVERY.DAY.

It's beyond yucky.

But my Doctor has me on 2 prescriptions.

It's help tame the beast a bit.

Some days are better than others.

If you remember with Laiklyn I had these same symptoms.

I told Ryan back then that it was a 50/50 chance

whether this was his genetics causing this

or maybe that I was just older and had taken a long baby break.

Well it's confirmed now

that this is definitely HIS fault!

I let him know routinely! ;)

2 for 2 on sickly pregnancies

Other than that I'm severely anemic.

Big surprise.

It's my nemesis in life.

And it has way too many side effects to even list.

So we're trying to get my iron levels under control

or it's back to an iron transfusion.

Now the positives,

I finally have some energy back now that I'm in my 2nd trimester!

I'm definitely feeling more human again!

No more walking zombie!

And I even wakeboarded the other day!

Um and maybe wrecked twice.

This boat has a way bigger wake!

So not only did I get my hair and make up wet (lol) when I usually don't,

I also used muscles I haven't used in a LONG time.

So yes I'm hobbling around completely sore! ha
(and yes my family quickly reminded me I'm prego and prob shouldn't be jumping the wake! oops lol)

On that note,

there's your 16 week wrap up!
