Here’s a little back story, before summer had started I had joined the Beach Body team and started my first program as a coach, 80 Day Obsession. I LOVED IT!!! I completed 2.5 weeks of the program and was kicking some booty but almost towards week 3 I started to feel in the morning and would have to hit pause multiple times throughout the work out which wasn’t me and was hard for me to make myself take the break I needed so I wouldn’t vomit all over the floor. I know icky!
Well when week 2 of feeling nausea hit I knew something wasn’t right and noticed I had missed my “time of the month” and millions of thoughts went through my head. “Ah shit did I lose to much weight and f***ed stuff up”, I was told a week before I had lost too much weight so that’s why that thought came rumbling in. Then the light bulb came on and I remembered we haven’t been preventing pregnancy. I dug out a test that I purchased a month or two back when we decided to stop preventing, I was about to open it, but I stopped myself and chose to wait a few more days just in cause my “time of the month” would appear. A few more days went by and I got the balls to finally take the test and I saw two beautiful blue lines, PREGNANT! Excitement and joy ran through my veins and ran in by my hubs who was still sleeping and woke his ass up to share the news. Needles to say he didn’t know what the hell was going on and then it sank in.
As the weeks went by and moving along in the pregnancy I became sooo sick and actually lost 15 pounds and had to make a trip in to the doctors office to get an iv put in and receive some fluids. I tried some home remedies that the nurses gave me but nothing helped until I was finally put on some medication to stop the constant vomiting and nausea. I finally started to feel like a myself again without having to take the meds around 14 weeks and life has been great.
I’m currently 18 weeks pregnant (5 months) and in two weeks we get to found out if baby is a boy or a girl. I have been struggling with eating fruits and veggies which I normally love but my body or the baby just doesn’t want them. I have to be in the mood for them but something my body or baby craves a lot is Doritos! I love them and they have saved me many times in this pregnancy by making me feel better.
We are in the progress of selling our home and moving to the family farm house which is closer to most our family minus a few. The selling of our home happened so fast its crazy, our home was on the market for one whole day and we had seven showings and 4 offers by the end of the day. That was the longest day of my life and a pretty emotional day. Oh and I am currently enrolled in a class that looks to be a wee bite challenging but it will be fun.
Take Care and God Bless
