Baby Wotring - 11 Weeks!

Today marks 11 weeks for Baby Wotring!

Overall, I can’t complain much about the first trimester.  My biggest issue the last 2 or 3 weeks has been tiredness. It mostly hits me in the late afternoon but some mornings I wake up and feel like I didn’t even sleep the night before. As a result of late afternoon tiredness, the crock pot has become my favorite kitchen appliance. The last thing I feel like doing when I get home is cook so I've been giving the crock pot a workout while I'm at work all day.

So thankful for the crock pot! 

Aside from that, I’ve had a few very random bouts of nausea that typically last 20 minutes so “morning sickness” has definitely not been an issue for me. I read in one of my books or blogs that women with bad morning sickness are more likely to have a girl but that wasn’t the case for several of my friends so I’m not reading into this too much. We’ll find out soon enough whether we are having a little girl or boy.

The husband and I are both really happy this week. The start of NFL season might have something to do with the big smirk on my husband's face, but I think we are both really looking forward to our appointment next week with our new doctor!  From my reading, I think we should be able to hear the baby’s heartbeat at this visit!

I’ve started browsing online for maternity clothes but haven’t pulled the trigger on anything yet. It seems too early and all my clothes still fit fine so I’ll probably just continue to keep my eye out and build a list of things I think I’ll need when the time comes. This week my weight is up about 1 lb from my pre-pregnancy weight but I’m accounting most of that to the large bag of candy corn I snagged at Target this weekend ;)
