Whoa Baby!!!

Wow these weeks are flying by now that I'm not sick every minute of every day. I'm really starting to ease into this whole pregnancy thing. I'll be 17 weeks on Thursday and things are progressing nicely. I go back to the doctor on Monday which I'm very much looking forward to. In recent developments, I have begun to have what is called as round ligament pain. If I get up too quickly or cough really hard I will have sharp pains in my abdomen. It's just because the baby is getting bigger and my uterus is expanding so the ligaments surrounding the uterus are stretching. The pains only last seconds but they are pretty intense. I'm no longer sick. Yay!!! I haven't thrown up in over a week and I've only experience a little bit of nausea on and off mostly at night. I'm still extremely tired. I work at least 8 hours a day so when I get home I am wiped out. I'm sleeping pretty good, but will sleep even better once Brandon and I get our new mattress. We got one that was memory foam, but it was too hard. So we are looking into a pillow top. Well that's it for now. I'll leave you with a progression of belly picks from the last few weeks. At this rate I'm going to look like I swallowed a beach ball by March :)
