10 Weeks Pregnant – Big News!

If you haven’t noticed, for the past few months there has been a bit of blogging silence from me. I needed to step back, clear my head and take care of what was really important – myself and my family.

And by golly, I have a baby in me the size of a kumquat to show for it.

That’s right… I’m 10 weeks pregnant!

I am over the moon excited that I have a healthy growing baby and a beautifully progressing pregnancy!

Pregnancy Announcement Ideas

I found out I was pregnant on April 1st (April Fools Day) and I tried to tell my husband but he just didn’t believe me. It was hilarious! I had to tell him again on April 2nd and that time I think it stuck.

I’m Spotting

I have had three spotting episodes so far which FREAKED ME OUT. Whenever I have miscarried in the past I would spot and/or bleed. Also, when I was pregnant with Gabriel, I spotted. I had some ultrasounds done and everything looks great.

I guess I just like to bleed when I’m pregnant.

10 Weeks Pregnant Symptoms

So far I have had all day/night sickness and some fatigue. I have found it to be much more manageable this time around – probably since I knew what to expect and since I am at home with Gabriel he and I are eating all the time. Life is good!

The bloating/food baby/muffin top thing I have going on is really out of control. I can’t wait till I am actually showing so I can stop feeling so fat!

I have SO much to tell you and I am looking forward to blogging throughout this pregnancy. I plan on posting weekly updates, and if I feel inspired maybe an extra post or two here and there.

In the mean time here’s a first glimpse and my new little one.
