Goodbye 1st Tri!

Almost... Today I am 12 weeks 1 day pregnant and as these last couple of weeks of the 1st trimester come to an end, I'm feeling exceedingly grateful for how smooth this pregnancy has been so far. For the most part anyway. I think the worst of it so far has been my constant battle with stubborn and debilitating allergies. They've kept me mostly indoors and miserable since the 4 week mark. I find sleep far more appealing than food and the nausea is rarely worth getting out of bed for. All that said, I still have yet to have any morning sickness and I'm feeling more "myself" these last few days. I know that some mom's have miserable 1st trimesters and keeping that in mind has helped me to feel better about my situation. I wish I felt more productive and active but I'm happy to endure these small drawbacks.

I'm not feeling very articulate these days which has kept me from writing for a while. I don't like to put my thoughts in a public forum (or private for that matter) if I don't feel like I can express them in a clear and concise way. I loved journaling and writing any chance I got in high school, but since then I've felt less creative and I think I need to start finding an artistic outlet again so that I can get my juices flowing. I'm ranting off topic now and my very active kitten is attacking my fingers as I type so I'm going to wrap this up. My point in all this is to say that even though I don't feel as if I have much to write about, I'm trying to do it anyway. I'd like to look back and see that I journaled at least weekly throughout my pregnancy. I like to know how I was feeling at different intervals in my life. And maybe someone else likes reading this too. I know my sister and I are OBSESSED with reading blogs of total strangers and I can at least count on her to read my posts ;) Ok sorry, preggo brain is getting me way off topic. What was this post about again? 

Back to binge watching Grey's Anatomy.
