Weekly Pregnancy Update - Week 4

Weekly Pregnancy Journal Update

How far along: 4 weeks today, I've officially missed my period (by a day)

Weight Gain: Loss. For some reason I seem to be down a few pounds from where I have normally been. I saw 116 on the scale yesterday morning, a number I haven't see in a long time!

Body & Changes: No symptoms yet other than missed period and insomnia every night for the past 5 days

Exercise: My first workouts since learning (I'll write a separate post on this experience) I'll hopefully won't be so nervous going forward

Clothes:  Regular

Sleep: I wish! It's still super early and truth be told I'm ok experiencing a symptom, I feel like it helps me know that something is going on. But I've had insomnia every day since finding out, been up for at least about an hour every night or just getting up ridiculously early. I haven't been overly tired though (yet)

What I’ve been eating: Trying to increase my spinach intake and other healthy things. Picked up some walnuts today, been researching healthy pregnancy diet foods

Emotions: Excited. Nervous. Afraid. Disbelief. Doesn't feel real. All of the above. Feeling excited, but afraid, I'm afraid in the back of my mind of something happening. I know that miscarriages are such a real thing, and there's nothing you can do to prevent it. I want to be excited but I want to get past that hurdle first.

Purchases: A second pregnancy test! Also some type of prenatal granola bars (organic Happy Mama) I saw in target when I was getting the test, and supplies for the weekly photos

What I miss: Absolutely nothing (well maybe sleep a little but thats ok)

Stretch marks: It's only been a couple days....

Food cravings: None so far

Movement: Not even close

Anything making you queasy or sick: not yet....

Have you started to show yet: Nope

What I’m looking forward to: Our doctor's appointment, I just want to get to that hurdle and know it's really happening!

Best Moment of the Week: Finding out we are going to be parents!!
