See I'm already not keeping up with this new blog like I intended. Oy.
So I went to the doc 3/1. Everything went well. Did more blood work and they took me off the progestrone. I'm still taking Vitamin D. (Not sure if I covered that previously, but when they first took blood, my progestrone level was low, so they put me on supplements and it's back to normal now. Second blood test, my Vitamin D was low, so I'm taking those supplements now)
I talked to them about changing the due date, and they said although the baby is consistently measuring somewhere between 4-5 days older, they are keeping my natural due date as 8/19/16 unless any other sonos reflect otherwise. So who really knows...I guess it's too hard to determine to the exact day you are, but I won't be surprised if the little peanut shows up early. We'll see. It's up to him when he's ready to make his earthside appearance. :)
I've been sticking to my yoga although I have decreased classes to about 2 days a week because 3 days a week is simply becoming a little difficult. I did get news that one of the yoga instructors at the studio I attend is now expecting and she is starting a prenatal class! WOO-HOO! I didn't want to have to go elsewhere for prenatal classes. I need to start walking atleast 2 days a week on top of it as well. I was planning on doing so starting last week, but we were living in a monsoon all week. So I have to start this week. I know there's always an excuse. Grrr. But I'm determined to stay active throughout this pregnancy as opposed to my first when I was sedentary and ended up gaining 50 lbs. :/ I was also 22-23 at the time, so I know it will be LOADS harder to lose any weight I gain this time around even just due to age itself.
My tummy is finally starting to have a pregnancy definition as opposed to me just looking like a fat cow. LOL. It's still a bit in between, but it's certainly defining. Not to mention, things are really shifting and becoming uncomfortable. I'm already looking forward to being able to sleep on my stomach again although I think I'm one of the only people on the planet that has this sleep position.
I feel him move every few days usually. Actually move. I get flutters a lot throughout the day, but I am feeling definitive movements as well, just not as often quite yet.
I generally feel pretty good. Nothing is making me too sick, no cravings yet. Some smells are still a little nauseating, but nothing too terrible. I have pretty good energy right now, so I'm trying to take advantage of it while I can because I'm sure that may change in a few months.
Close to half way through! :)
Here's a 16 week photo that was actually taken too early (end of Feb) since I got all misconstrued for a few weeks on how far along I really am. Who knows, I might be further along, but we are sticking with 8/19 now.
My next appt is 3/30 and I'll have another sono then.
