11 weeks

Hooray! I am so excited each week as it means I have passed yet another milestone. I am feeling more and more hopeful, particularly after the last ultrasound. I am finally back on my feet - literally that is, my back is much better - another day or so and it will be back to 'normal' I think. I am tired of laying around and really feel for those of you I follow who are on bed rest! I have found that if I lay on my back for too long I start to get really dizzy and nauseated. I know that laying on my back isn't the best thing to do - but doctors orders for the last few days due to the excruciating back spasms. The last few days I have been able to lay on my sides more without the spasm coming back so I am glad for that.

I am still feeling pretty good - I definitely have my moments and I can't wait for food to sound good again, especially dinner!! So far I have gained no weight - which is OK because it wouldn't have hurt me to lose some before getting pregnant! I am thirsty ALL THE TIME the last week or so, seriously, I can't get enough to drink - which only makes me run to the bathroom that much more.

I have seen a couple templates for keeping track weekly of your pregnancy - I have been afraid to use one just in case things didn't work out. I am feeling more confident now and I will probably adopt one next week - we will see.

Happy weekend everyone!
