6 Weeks Pregnant- day 71

Normal tummy
 
Relaxed tummy lol

Baby is the size of: a SWEET PEA! (.25 inches)

Baby's Development: Baby has doubled in size since last week, and will double in size again this week! If it hasn't already, Baby's heart will start to beat this week! Other vital organs are forming, as well as facial features, and budding arms and legs. All reasons to support the "heartbeat bill" in Texas! 

Due Date: I will see the OB/GYN  in three weeks, so I will know for certain when I am due soon. Right now, I am still pretty sure it is February 17th. 

Momma Symptoms: So, so tired! Thankfully, I don't feel exhausted all day, it is usually just for a few hours, but around 7:00pm, I'm really down for the count. Andrew has been an absolute superhero (as he always is), taking on way more than his fair share of responsibilities to allow me plenty of time to rest and grow our baby. I have also felt bloated and gassy and hungry... but that's just like, a day in the life of Peyton lol. 

Health and Exercise: Still working out everyday! Trading off between OTF and running. Today I might just do an arms video, yesterday's Orange Theory class KILLED my legs!!

Weight Gain: 1 lb (starting weight- 146.5, current- 147.5)

Emotional Wellness: Other than my terrible panic attack yesterday, I've been okay. I have awful night terrors, and they seem to get worse during pregnancy-I remember this happening with Henry too. Some theories on why this happens include added stress, anxiety, and surges of progesterone.  

Random Life Things: We still haven't found a place to live, but we have faith! Just checking every website every 30 minutes, no big deal lol. Even with our housing chaos going on, we are still looking forward to our family vacation to Breckinridge, Colorado in July! I have a big family- mom, dad, 3 brothers, a sister, 1 sister in law, 1 brother in law, 2 nephews, and a niece- and we will about be together in CO. I'm so pumped. We hired a photographer to take family pictures, we're going on lots of hikes, patio dinners... absolute heaven.

Grocery List

Image
I've gotten such positive feedback from my last post! I cannot express how happy the texts, messages, and Facebook comments made me! What a great community I have surrounding me! I have had a lot of requests to post a clean eating grocery list. There are a ton you can find on Pinterest or in any paleo book you buy. Here are just the basic things I get on my weekly shopping trip. **Keep in mind with meat, poultry and seafood: look for grass-fed, free-range, or wild-caught. Sometimes I have a hard time finding them, so just do your best!  Meat/Poultry/Seafood: Grass-fed ground beef Chicken drumsticks or thighs Salmon Tilapia Bacon  Dozen Eggs Vegetables: Broccoli Cucumber Zucchini Squash Bell Peppers Jalapeno Brussel Sprouts  Spinach  Leafy lettuce Onion Tomato Avocado Fruits : Green apples Berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries) Lemon Other: Egg White protein powder Olives Olive oil Coconut oil Coffee Yellow m...

Atomic Habits Bullet Points

 CH 1: 1% analogy- focus small Progress- an ice cube doesn't melt, even when it heats up from 20-31 degrees, that one degree makes a difference, however, the other 11 degrees weren't wasted effort, they were stored progress/potential Plateau of Latent Potential - where most people give up- right on the cusp of success Forget Goals- focus on system instead The goal takes care of itself when the systems are in place Goals met are temporary and at odds with long term progress (yo-yoing)
