Baby Sunday #2: 17 weeks

 Baby Sunday #2: 17 weeks 

Obsessions/Rampages: Obsessed with putting my house together. We have a bunch of projects that have been on hold the last 5 months, but now that I'm feeling like myself I can go back to being proactive about things. Obsessed with blowing my nose, I always have a stuffy nose. I remember the same thing happening with Elijah. Rampages, not many just a tad bit more feisty than usual, but that's to expected with all the hormones.

Elations/Worries: Elated that I feel great again. I have my energy back, sleep a normal amount of hours and I get to eat food without puking! Yeah!  Also elated that I am starting to the feel the first "flutters" of movement. I forgot how fun it is to feel the little person growing inside move around. So precious. Elated that I have a little belly and elated my clothes still fit, although my jeans are getting a tad snug in the tummy. No worries at the moment I feel great about everything so far and can't wait to find out what we're having.

Aversions/Cravings: Aversions include mostly chicken and avocado. I can handle chicken in small amounts when it is mixed with a bunch of other stuff but don't expect me to just eat a chicken breast, yuck. No cravings yet. Although a lime fruit bar at the end of the day always tastes good and satisfies my sweet tooth. I'm trying to eat better and I can't handle all the sugar I ate with my first pregnancy. I need the energy that eating well provides so I can keep up with everything I want/need to do on a daily basis and eating a bunch of junk doesn't do that.
