5 weeks

So today I am 5 weeks and 1 day pregnant, and for the most part, I'm feeling good. The week I found out we were pregnant, I had been feeling just kind of "ick" in my stomach. Nothing major, just kind of blah. Last week was about the same, with some extremely minor nausea. The big change last week was my porn star boobs! Seriously, I look like I've had a boob job. I've had some minor cramping the whole time...apparently it's my uterus preparing to grow and stretch. I've been surprised that I'm not more tired at all and have been taking advantage of by trying to continue my regular exercise routine. I have toned down the intensity a bit and the doctor said no ab work at all. I feel slightly guilty because I hadn't made the best food choices in the last month, so I kinda feel like I didn't start off the pregnancy on the right foot in terms of nutrition. That first week of "ick" feeling I had made some peanut butter and jelly bars; they were one of the only things that really appealed to me so I ate them like they were the last food on earth. Really healthy, huh? Sweets have always been my downfall and I can tell you that nothing has changed in that regard!

Wondering how big the baby is right now? Last week it was the size of a poppy seed, but look how we've grown! The size of an apple seed. :-)
