Manny Update

It has been a few weeks since my last update about Manny. Things have been pretty up and down. I went in for genetic testing and the results for downsyndrome came back in the low percentile.

The Dr.'s say I am 15 weeks pregnant, but they always add two weeks. I have heard different versions as to why, but by my calculations I am 13 weeks. I know this becuase I know the first day I could have conceived...Anyway, maybe if Aunt Cay reads my blog she can explain???? Everything that it says I should experience in my 15th weeks I am or have. I am forgetfull, clumsy, my clothes don't fit right, I go to the bathroom more. Those are all good signs that my pregnancy is moving right along :)

I am in my second trimester now and the books and everyone who has been pregnant has said that it gets easier in the second trimester. However, I have gotten sick two times and my body hurts all the time. It was not like this the first three months!!!! I have more energy, but when I do anything "normal" by body aches for days.

My appetite has gotten better; however, I need to learn to not gorge but graze...That is my goal for the second trimester. Not to overindulge myself. I am gaining the normal amount of weight, which is good. I was also given a whole wardrobe of maternity clothes from a family friend. It was so nice of her to give them to me. And they are the cutest clothes ever!!! I am going to dress better now that I am pregnant than I did before!!! Holla!!!!

I haven't felt Manny move yet...I can't wait for that. Teddy has started talking to the baby :) It is pretty cute...Sometimes he whispers so I can't hear what he says...

I went to the store yesterday and purchased the cutest onesies and pants for Manny. They are gender neutral, so they will work if Manny is a girl or a boy. I am not going to tell you what they are in case someone buys them for me. I will just take the ones I bought back :) hee hee hee...

Anyway, hope you enjoyed the update :)
