I feel like today is a good day!
Aside from not being able to sleep last night - it was either the iced tea or the fact that I took a two hour nap in the afternoon, I am feeling really good.
I worked out every day last week (Monday - Friday) and I honestly think that is what is making the difference. My back doesn't hurt, I have more energy and aside from my mini melt down I had Friday night before the Mustangs game (which I will talk about in a minute) I have not had a ton of issues with my ever changing body.
the mini-meltdown...lets see! I no longer fit into my pre-pregnancy pants even with a bella band and was a little frustrated because i felt like I had nothing to wear other than black pants and black cropped pants. I have been relying on the bella band to rock my normal jeans and up until this past Friday, it had been working perfectly. However, when I went to put on a pair of my jeans - I could no longer zip them (Even a little bit) and the two sides were so far away that even the bella band didn't work to make it look normal. So after I pulled all my pants off the hanger, balled them up and shoved them on top of my closet in a frenzy...I found a pair that are bigger than the rest, opted for those and made it a point to order two pairs of maternity jeans from Gap when I got home that night.
In all - there were no tears, and my self esteem and pride were only some what bruised - not beaten...so I feel like it was actually a victory in my world!
we are 16 weeks & 5 days...almost 17 weeks - which seems crazy to think. Not too much longer before Grandma comes out to visit and Mommy and Daddy find out whether the little cockeye will be rocking pink or blue home from the hospital! Obviously we don't care either way - but are just excited to find out!
