Pregnancy Update

This pregnancy has been different from my first. I was sick in the beginning but thankfully that has come to an end. I have been pretty lucky overall. The worst of it is that I'm uncomfortable often. I think I carry my babies a little weird. It seems like anywhere I move, he is jabbing at something inside. Now that he is getting a little bigger when he gets active it feels pretty crazy. I have to readjust how I'm sitting or how I'm laying all the time. "Getting comfortable" is always the goal but rarely happens (until my alarm clock goes off and then I'm sudden so comfy!) 

I haven't had specific cravings. I get tired a lot but if I make sure to get plenty of rest, it's not a problem. I have been able to keep running which is great. I try to run 10 miles a week, one 4 mile run, and one 6 mile run. Then I do strength training 2 other days a week with just 5 lb weights. I have gained 7 lbs so far. I wish I could remember how much I had gained by this point last time! We are pretty excited for July to come. 

Here are some awkward pregnancy photos :)

  1. I think you're looking way good. I know what you mean when you wondering how much you have gained the first pregnancy because it's fun to compare, that's why with Oliver I recorded more stuff so I can compare with my next pregnancy.
