Life runs away from you sometimes and the best-laid plans fall to the wayside.... Not long after my bout with nausea & numbness, I found out I was pregnant! July 8th to be exact. I knew the night before what the results would be and was all ready to take the test, but I my husband was stuck at the airport in D.C. and I wanted to wait for him. So instead of July 7, I woke my husband up around 8am after he had about 3 hours of sleep to tell him I guess I shouldn't have eaten so many jello shots over 4th of July weekend. Classy, right?
According to my due date, March 9, 2012, conception date was June 18th. So that, along with a hangover and some sort of bug bite on the back of my head explains the nausea. I took antibiotics for a few days, and was also taking meds for high blood sugar, but so far everything looks good. I stopped taking everything but a prenatal once I found out I was pregnant.
I wish I had been more thoughtful and done like other bloggers and saved up weeks worth of posts to put up once I was out of the first trimester, but like most aspects of my life, I procrastinated. So here I am at 14 weeks and 1 day telling the universe I'm pregnant when I haven't even told anyone at work!
Being pregnant was a giant kick in the pants for me health-wise. So far I've actually lost a few pounds, and am eating better than I have in a long time (for the most part). I had a rough first few months nausea wise, but my plan is to start incorporating exercise now- even if it's just walks- since I'm finally feeling more normal (knock on wood).
