12 weeks

How far along: 12 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: -3lbs
Size of the baby: a toy soldier
Maternity clothes: a pair of shorts from DI?
Sleep: Pretty good this week 
Best moment since last week: getting a new ultrasound picture and hearing the hearbeat (162 at 11 weeks 4 days)
Miss anything: my mt dew!
Movement: I actually think I felt a little movement one day this week but I'm not positive. 
Food cravings: a lot of food sounds super nasty, but when I do want to eat, it's always salty things or deli sandwiches like Jimmy Johns. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: really heavy foods like burgers (we made cheeseburgers for dinner one night and it was not a good idea) However I did start a B6/unisom mix this week my Dr told me to take and my morning sickness this week was hardly there!  
Have you started to show yet: I don't think so.  
Gender: We have a Dr apt on April 26th and we'll hopefully find out then, we'll be 15 weeks 5 days
Labor signs: none
Belly button in or out: in
Wedding rings on or off: on
Happy or moody most of the time: I think I've been pretty moody this week :( a lot of people assuming I will just do things because I work from home so that must mean I have all the time in the world to take care of their stuff... it really bugged me this week. 
What are you looking forward to this week: I'll be shooting my nephews sr pictures this week and I have a wedding I'm shooting this week, I'm really excited for both but nervous to see how tired I am by Sunday! 

baby was so active when we went for the ultrasound, flipping around, stretching legs and arms, scratching it's head and what looked like waving! I can't wait to find out if we are having a boy or a girl so I can stop saying "it" and we can come up with a name! Hopefully with Easter and Olivia's birthday coming up time will just fly by!

11 Weeks

How far along: 11 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: -1lbs
Size of the baby: a lime
Maternity clothes: whatever I have leftover, maybe nothing?
Sleep: I've been waking up every night around 4am for I have no idea what reason, and then I just lay there because I can't fall back asleep for about an hour, it might be from my extremly vivid dreams.

Miss anything: my mt dew!
Movement: none yet
Food cravings: a lot of food sounds super nasty, but when I do want to eat, it's always salty things or deli sandwiches like Jimmy Johns. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: this was actually a pretty tuff week and I was queasy pretty much the whole time. 
Have you started to show yet: I don't think so. My 7 year old cousin told me "It's so weird, you just look like normal Ashlee and not a pregnant Ashlee" lol 
Gender: I was told I can find out at 14 weeks... so I probably will
Labor signs: none
Belly button in or out: in

Ten Weeks 3 Days

Here we are, 1/4 of the way done! I can't wait to be farther along so I can feel baby moving and not keep thinking it's all in my head! Our next apt is in one week and I just can't wait! I did this little thing with Olivia every now and then while I was preggers so I'm going to try and do it again this time. Hopefully I'll remember because my blogging skills have gone WAY down hill!

How far along: 10 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: -0lbs Same as when I got pregnant
Size of the baby: a cocktail wienie or a kumquat
Maternity clothes: whatever I have leftover, maybe nothing?
Sleep: It's really hard to get comfy because my boobs hurt SO BAD but once I do I am sleeping mostly thru the night, sometimes I wake up to pee.
Best moment since last week: um.... the weather has been great so we've been outside a lot
Miss anything: my mt dew!
Movement: none yet
Food cravings: a lot of food sounds super nasty, but when I do want to eat, it's always salty things or deli sandwiches like Jimmy Johns.
Anything making you queasy or sick: morning sickness, when I drink to much water and really sweet things
Have you started to show yet: its hard to tell, i was already over weight so... :(
Gender: I was told I can find out at 14 weeks... so I probably will
Labor signs: none
Belly button in or out: in
Wedding rings on or off: on
Happy or moody most of the time: probably 70/30 mostly happy
What are you looking forward to this week: My sweet neighbor offered to take Olivia for a play date so I can take a nap later this week and not pawn Olivia off on my mom like I always do!


This is our 9 week ultrasound. It just looks like a tiny bobble head lol. Can't wait to get new pictures in a week! We'll be almost 12 weeks so it should look more like a baby by then!

7 weeks 1 day

Wow, I guess last year really did a number on me! I haven't blogged since we lost baby 2 at 5.5 weeks. I've shed so many tears over that day since then. All the blaming on myself, questions, sadness thinking that was it, and facing the realization I might only ever have one child and to embrace her!
Almost a year later, here I am, 7 weeks and 1 day pregnant. I've taken 3 tests I have a Dr's appointment in 2 weeks and I'm all kinds of nauseous!
We went to Florida the first week of February and I got so motion sick on the flight there is thought, maybe it's morning sickness? I didn't want to get my hopes up though and blew it off, we had so much fun frolicking at the beach and disneyworld and the day after we got back, I missed my period! I've been so nervous something will happen that I haven't really had time to be excited. It's such a weird feeling, almost as if it's not real. My first appointment I'll get to hear the heartbeat and do an ultrasound, I'm so excited, but a little sad, the only time they had open was 930am so Kasey won't make it :( I don't know if he pretends it's not a big deal, or he really doesn't mind, but I'll be sad he isn't with me.
This is my last baby, so I want to make sure I go all out, I have announcement ideas planned and gender reveal ideas! I'm already putting aside money for a birth photographer, because Kasey had to do it for Olivia and I don't want him to have to worry about it this time.
Here's to our little blueberry! Please stay with me this time! 
Love - your momma.
