Today marks my 18th week in my pregnancy. Time is flying by. I can't believe that I'm almost half way through my pregnancy! Luckily I've had a fairly easy time. Even in my first trimester I only had morning sickness right before bed. I know that I am extremely blessed to have such low key symptoms. When I found I was pregnant I was preparing myself for the worst... I was terrified (I still am) that my fibromyalgia would flare something fierce and that I would be miserable for the next 9 months. I am forever grateful that this hasn't happened! I'm grateful that my nausea was only in the evening when I was at home and in private. I can't imagine getting sick at work and having to push through that. I admire women who do have to live through that. I admire the women who are sick the whole 9 months! You are the real champions!
My aunt got me a really cool scrap book from
Blink Box Collection that I have been using (pictured above). This weeks card asks: "things I miss most before the belly:"
instantly I think SKINNY JEANS! I'm glad summer is coming and I no longer have to wear boots with every outfit because my skinny jeans haven't fit since about week 10! Ha! I think something else I miss is sleeping on my stomach or on my back. Now I do still slip this sometimes at night. There's just something comforting about sleeping on my stomach that I can't quite give up yet.
That's all I have tonight so I'll wrap this post up with a bump picture. I hope you have a wonderful day or night!
XOXO,
Aubrie
