15 weeks

Now that I'm into my second trimester (which really flew this time, btw), I am able to focus more on enjoying this pregnancy.  Because let's face it, this is probably it for me.   These were my child bearing years- the last 3, almost 4, years.  I'm turning 34 in about a month and I really don't want to have another baby past 35.   Unless it's with my frozen embryo made from a 31 year old's eggs ;)  My 31 year old eggs.  Yeah, more on that later- maybe I'm not done.

I have been feeling really good so far.  First trimester was uneventful outside of the CVS debacle.  I have been feeling good (though tired) and crazy cravings are waning.  I'm back on salads and non- pizza foods.  I have been trying to eat healthy- veggies, salads, back to cooking vegetarian dinners at least twice a week.  I have indulged in a few sodas and definitely candy and goodies.  Surprisingly by the picture, I'm only up about 8 lbs from my starting weight so far.  I think this time in my last pregnancy I was up 10+ lbs from the start.

A week or so ago, after I got my final results, I told work my news.  It was so nice that everyone was happy for me, even though I know my supervisor is probably thinking how annoying it is to have another girl out on maternity leave.  Is it wrong that I am counting down the days already.  I am going to ask for another 4 months off and I hope I get it.  I am so not in a motivated place right now.
