Pregnancy: Cliff Notes Style

I thought blogging would get easier once significant life events happened ie. being pregnant. You know, the weekly belly shots, latest cravings, last emotional breakdown, crazy symptoms, but obviously I thought wrong... I guess blogging isn't defined by the events that happen in life but by something else... I am going to go with time.

So since time is of the essence and I seem to be running out of it lately, here is My Pregnancy (since my last pregnancy post) Cliff Note Style

16 weeks: Started to show, carrying really low
17 weeks: Felt him for sure move for the first time
18 weeks: Confirmed he was a he. Had our big ultrasound.
19 weeks: Ran the Red Rock Relay
20 weeks: Bought our crib. Started craving refried beans
21 weeks: Running started getting very difficult
22 weeks: Chase felt the baby kick, baby became very active. First trip to the beach
23 weeks: My Stomach popped. Started looking pregnant instead of chubby
24 weeks: Ran Ragnar Relay
25 weeks: Started getting swelling from sitting or standing to long
26 weeks: Started getting Braxton Hicks while running
27 weeks: Running was cut down to 25 minutes to manage Braxton Hicks
28 weeks: The top of my belly button started to poke out
29 weeks: I started getting morning sickness again
30 weeks: Thought I was going into preterm labor after a tube ride in Powell... False alarm :)
31 weeks: Retook the Gestational Diabetes test due to the fact that I threw up the entire orange drink 15 minutes after drinking it


Crave the most: Refried Beans, fruit, hot dogs
Least Favorite Symptom: Constant runny/stuffy nose
