5 weeks 4 days

 June 8, 2012-


 It is really starting to feel like I am pregnant. The fatigue really kicked in the past couple days. And insomnia. Which is a really frustrating combination! I am also hungry all the time! Which is really frustrating as well, knowing that my calorie intake isn't supposed to increase until the 2nd trimester. Well, why is my body telling me that I am hungry then??? It must be confused.

We still have another 2.5 weeks before we are planning on telling anyone. That seems like a long time. It is hard to keep it a secret. I almost let it slip to people who don't know a couple times. Luckily I caught myself ;) I got Lydia's T-shirt in the mail that says "I'm going to be a BIG sister!" It is so stinkin' cute! I can't wait til she can wear it! I'm thinking if the morning sickness kicks in right around 6 weeks like it did with Ms. Lydia, it is going to be really difficult to hide.

In other news, I lost 5 pounds last week, the first week on the 42 day little black dress challenge. That was really exciting. I am at the same weight now that I was at this point in my pregnancy with Lydia. I hope to lose another 5-10 pounds in the next 5 weeks. That'd be great! It might get trickier though as I get more tired and feel more crappy. But hey, maybe I'll feel really good for the first trimester of this pregnancy?!?! ;) Haha

I think that is my only update for now. Until next time...

P.S. Can't wait to post ultrasound pics!
