Playing Catch Up

Hello! This poor little blog has been so neglected in the past year!  I am so sorry about that.  When I first started Kieran Honeybee my intentions were for this to be a spot to share about pregnancy and eventually my child. A sort of digital scrapbook that I could hand down to him one day.  That was all fine and good until the dreaded morning sickness took over my life.  I started getting sick at exactly 6 weeks pregnant and wasn't really 'over' it until around 23 weeks.  Guys, it consumed me! I barely could leave the couch, every time I moved I had to be sick.  I finally convinced my doctor that I needed some help and started Zofran at around 12 weeks but boy it sure was rough.  

Anyway, since I want to start writing here again, I first wanted to catch you guys up on whats been going on!  

I got really really pregnant...

17 weeks//20 weeks//26 weeks

30 weeks//33 weeks//36 weeks

38 weeks//38 weeks 4 days

Had an adorable baby boy...

And now we are moving across the country!

Phew!  We have been busy!  I will be trying to blog at a more consistant pace and I hope you stick around!  Theres plenty more to catch up on!

{Baby Kieran} Thank you! + 13 Weeks

How far along: 13 Weeks

Gender: Still a mystery.  EVERYONE says girl though

Weight gain: At my 12 week appt I had actually lost 10 lbs.  Hopefully by the next appt I will have gained some back

Maternity clothes: Not yet.  I have thrifted a couple pieces but they are still too big.  I did buy a Blanqi though, and it has been WONDERFUL!

Symptoms: Oh boy.
- I have been so so sick!  I started throwing up promptly at 6 weeks and that never went away. I was throwing up about 7-8 times a day, finally threw in the towel and started Zofran.  It was a lifesaver, however I still have days where I am really sick.
-Sciatic nerve pain & hip pain started a few weeks ago.  I have alot of hip issues so this wasnt surprising, so I went and got myself a membership to Massage Envy and am looking forward to monthly massages. (spoiled!)
-Heightened sense of smell, headaches, fatigue...pretty much all of the first trimester symptoms.

Belly button in or out: In.  I doubt that it will ever poke out, its so deep.

Sleep: eh.  some nights I sleep good, others I toss and turn and am awake at all hours.

Miss anything: Liking food.  Having energy. Beer.

Movement: Not yet but looking forward to them!

Cravings: Clementines. Grilled cheese. All things sweet.

Queasy or sick: yes yes yes.  

Looking forward to: Next appt on the 18th.  Our anniversary. Planning a babymoon.


I also wanted to say THANK YOU!!  We have gotten so many well wishes and congratulations for this baby on here and on Instagram, they mean so much!  We had a hard road getting here so this baby is all of our hopes and dreams coming true.

Big News!

Baby Kieran coming in July!
