Pregnancy - Week 12 (previously hidden post)

How big is baby: approx 2 inches

Total weight gain: -2.4 lbs

Symptoms: I was nauseous earlier this week, but I can tell that it’s starting to get better.  I’m taking 50mg B-6 in the morning, rather than twice a day like I have been lately.  My lower back has been sore the last couple days.  I figure that has to do with adjusting to sleeping on my left side.

Food cravings: No cravings this week

Food aversions: Milk and ice cream

Best moment this week: I told a few people about the pregnancy.  It was so nice to have this secret for a while, but now it’s fun that other people are finding out and asking about how things are going.

What I am looking forward to: I’m looking forward to my appointment with my OB on Monday.  I hope I get to hear the heartbeat again!

Food survey

It's almost marathon weekend!  My younger brother is flying in tomorrow.  Sunday morning, I'll be in downtown OKC cheering him on in the half and my husband in the first 10k leg of the marathon relay.  My big announcement is coming in a few days, so stay tuned!  Until then, I've been seeing this food survey floating around blog world and thought I'd participate.

Coke or Pepsi?

I don't drink soda... except for the rare trip to Pop's when I like to get a Boylan's Grape or Boylan's Ginger Ale.  I used to drink Coke, but I never liked Pepsi.

Lemonade or fruit punch?

Lemonade

Caramel apple or cotton candy?

Caramel apple... but I'd rather just have a regular apple

Butterfinger or Snickers?

Snickers

Pudding or Jello?

Jello chocolate/vanilla pudding is so good!

Turkey or chicken?

Both!

American or Provolone cheese?

Provolone... unless I'm eating a grilled cheese sandwich, which must have American cheese.

Crackers or cookies?

Cookies

Pretzels or chips?

Chips

Mexican food or Japanese food?

Definitely Mexican!

Pasta or pizza?

Soda or juice?

Juice, but I don't drink it very much because of all the sugar.

Bananas are probably one of my favorite foods.  I eat at least one a day.
