9 weeks

Its been a month since my last post. Symptoms are minimum (TYJ) but I'm always hungry- Geesh! Its obvious why pregnant women gain so much weight. Food is the cure for everything with me. I wake up feeling sluggish, I eat, then I'm good. If I can't sleep at night, I go to the fridge and grab a snack then I'm good. I do my daily walk (2.5 miles a day) I get back home and I'm starving, I eat then I'm good. Its safe to say that "Food Rules Everything Around Me".

Just last night I noticed some lower back pain and "GOOGLE SAYS" that this can come from many things such as my sleeping position, my growing belly, running, walking, bending...basically anything can bring upon some discomfort at this point. Google never gives a straight up answer so then you're left on this internet hunt to diagnose yourself of reasons why. All in All being pregnant will bring upon such changes so I just handle it like a big girl and besides its not that bad so far so I'm cool.

Most people don't speak on pregnancy early as I have but for me, I have to too which is why my blog is perfect! Not many review my blog that I'm aware of until I share it on a social network site then they view it because its as easy as a click to get to this page. Those that are close to me are aware of my journey and I keep them posted daily.

My next appointment is April 4th, I pray as with all things that the appointment goes swell. I told my mom the other day I don't feel anything but, now I do. Its like you speak on it then, it happens. I went to sit down in my work chair and I flopped down as I usually would and was hit with a sharp pain that made me re-think the way I take a seat. Its small things that remind me that I am pregnant such as sitting down or being totally uncomfortbale when I'm trying to sleep.

I keep up with myself through the Baby bump app that's pretty cool and it keeps me informed on what I should be eating, doing, feeling and looking forward to.

Yesterday made a week in which I returned home from Las Vegas.

*Another Bathroom break"

I had a great time in Vegas with my mom and her friends, I did a lot of walking but I think that was a good thing. And furthermore this trip was planned way in advance so I did not want to be the pregnant lady that stays in the room and or the lady who can't do much.

Food confessions: 
I had a few cups of coffee with my mom and her best friend. Other days I went for Hot chocolate. I knew I couldn't have much caffeine so I kept things at a minimum. Cinnabuns called my name a few times that week since the location was in the actual hotel we were staying at and I was stuffed each morning from an awesome breakfast. All in all I burned many calories with my walking so its safe to save I broke even lol.

Soooo, that's it for now. I'll update you after my next appointment. Our baby is Baby Grape this week being that I'm 9 weeks and at my next visit I'll be 10 weeks so stay posted!

Toodles,

LALA

Is Reading really that important?

We all know that reading is fundamental although many of us really don’t like to do it. Why Not? Reading is one of the best hobbies a person can have. But it’s saddening to know that majority of us aren’t introduced to the fabulous world of books. If you are one of the non-book readers who feels you “don’t need no stinking books”, here are some reasons to start the habit…before you are left behind! 1.     Reading is an active mental process : Unlike sitting in front of the idiot box (TV), reading makes you use your brain. While reading you would be forced to reason out many things which are unfamiliar to you. In this process you would use the grey cells of your brain to think and become smarter. 2.     Reading improves your vocabulary : Remember in elementary school when you learned how to infer the meaning of one word by reading the context of the other words in the sentence? You get the same benefit from book reading. While reading book...
