Things are going well right now, and the weeks are flying by. And before the updates, i promised a gender reveal.. it&#8217;s a boy! I know, I know, a bit anticlimactic as far as gender reveals go, you are most welcome \ud83d\ude09 But we are excited to know there&#8217;s a little mister joining us. Luke is elated to be &#8220;evened up&#8221; and keeps computing little brothers age in conjunction with the rest of the siblings. The girls are so excited about a baby and don&#8217;t really know what to expect yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fun fact, our first ultrasound, baby&#8217;s umbilical cord was wrapped around his legs and long story short, we were told we are expecting a girl! A few weeks later, I went in for some more imaging on a few of baby&#8217;s vitals and the technician broke it to me that this is most definitely <em>not<\/em> a girl.. wait, what?! Threw us for a loop, already keeping us on our toes. I sensed this was a boy pregnancy from the beginning (the girls gave me so much nausea, so it&#8217;s encouraging to know the intuition is en pointe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Size: <\/strong>I am told we&#8217;re about the size of a baseball glove now! This seems huge, and also wide, and overall a bizarre shape to use for comparison&#8217;s sake, but there it is!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sleep:<\/strong> Fine! It&#8217;s fine, okay?? Ha. Generally I&#8217;ve been sleeping well. But late bedtimes and early mornings and insomnia do not help. I definitely need to start turning in earlier, 1130pm is not cutting it these days! (surprise surprise, it&#8217;s 11:34pm as I&#8217;m typing this).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Symptoms:<\/strong> I&#8217;ve had vertigo which is new for me. It may or may not be pregnancy induced but if you ever wondered what it feels like to constantly be doing a somersault, that&#8217;s pretty close. <em>But<\/em> since the vertigo stopped, things have been fairly smooth.. a miracle!! Some acid reflux, there&#8217;s that. Bear with me long enough and I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll have added exponentially to this section \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Food cravings:<\/strong> salads, espresso drinks, tacos, popcorn with nutritional yeast mmm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Exercise:<\/strong> still walking as much as I can, but much of it has been on the treadmill because of the rain. Also trying to do as many weights and resistance exercises as I can. I am pretty thankful that Kayla of the world famous &#8220;Sweat&#8221; app is due around the same time as me, she has so many recommendations that I&#8217;ve been saving on my Instagram to try out. I am hoping to keep some strength throughout this pregnancy so we&#8217;ll see how that goes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Movement:<\/strong> so much movement as of late! It&#8217;s fun to see my belly begin to rise in certain places. And he&#8217;s just constantly moving around in general. So much activity and he&#8217;s not even out!
