New Goals for a NEW LIFE

Day 166 Raw
Week 5-6? Pregnant
234 lbs

Well, I ended the detox (did 100% raw- added nuts since I was pregnant and hungry).
I did not beat the 200 lb mark, but considering the baby.. I am cutting myself some major slack!
Since then I have had lots of energy... but I am feeling like my body is at work and sometimes I just need to rest and rest well.
I have felt really hungry. So, I am trying to listen to my body without overeating. Balance!

I went to Chuy's with friends on Sunday, and ate a big cooked meal which I have to say tasted great! I enjoyed it and did not feel too stuffed, which is weird. I was tired afterward though... cooked corn will do that to me. But even that day everything else was 100% raw. I am back to my 80% raw norm... raw all day and a 50% dinner or higher. That feels right for now.

I had some mild nausea on Saturday which I had to just keep nibbling to keep off. But Sunday was pretty rough nausea... all day. But, I never vomited or anything... And today I had none at all.

I had a little cramping... and started worrying, but then I remembered that it normal. It has been a while. One of the midwives I am interviewing, when I told her it had been 6 years since my last birth.. said "Do not worry, your body remembers!" Isn't that good? She got extra points for that.

I am going to look back at this blog and see if I can get an exact date of my last period. I know it is around the 15th... but I think it was about a week after. Which would make my due date about March 28th. My birthday is March 13th and our anniversary is March 2nd, so that would be pretty cool! Vyk really wants for the baby to have been conceived 7-07-07! :) I think it was a little earlier, but ya know. I need to get one of those baby growing things for my blog that shows how big the baby is now. That would be pretty cool. Astrid keeps asking how big the baby is, and tiny is only going to cut it for a few more weeks. She needs to know more. I think I will go look at our local used book store and see if there is a book for kids on fetal growth and development, or something more fun and story like would be good. Hey, I will just make up a story... that is even better!

Here is the big question. Will I blog my weight for the entirety of my pregnancy? For peats sake, why not? It will probably be good for me.
