23 Weeks!
Time to update! It's been quite a bit! Five weeks later, and still throwing up. Thankfully, it is not often!! Now I'm at about a week to two weeks in between each visit to the toliet. The HCG hormone is with a woman her entire pregnancy, so I will most likely keep throwing up the whole way through. But it will be worth it... right?? We'll see!!
The most exciting development is the strong kicks I get now! It is so very, very neat to feel this little one move and kick. Josh still hasn't been able to feel it, but I think he will be able to soon!!! My belly button is getting closer to the surface, but it's still an innie!!
The bad thing right now is heartburn and aches. Sometimes, your leg will cramp for no reason at all! And then your back, and then your ribs. Goodness! Sometimes, just pushing on your tummy will make the baby reposition and the pain lessens. It's incredible how something so small can change your body so much!!
Other than that, things are relatively normal. Good amount of energy finally! We're excited for this little one to join the world!!

18 Weeks!
So today marks 18 weeks. The amazing thing is I still throw up on occasion! At least it is MUCH better. The doctor said the HCG (that's what makes you sick) is present the entire pregnancy. I guess most women just aren't that affected by it? Apparently, God didn't make that happen for me!!
We got our first ultrasound yesterday. It was SO amazing!! I can't imagine anyone seeing this amazing little being all formed and growing and not realize there is a God. There is NO way this can happen by chance!! To even think that at 12 weeks, the brain, heart, eyes, etc. are developed and mostly there! No way that is an accident!
So, since the throwing up is dying down, it seems the heartburn is picking up. It actually has gotten so bad it makes me cough! I bought a nice installment of Tums today to try and calm it down. Hopefully that will help! I just hate needing it already when I'm only at 18 weeks!
Let's see, what else is changing. How about, everything? For the first time, I can see past the top of me to my belly!! I haven't been able to do that since I was 13! I can still see my toes, so I think that's a good sign! It definitely is growing and becoming noticeable. Less fat looking, more pregnant looking!
I've also started feeling the little bubbles in my belly. Sometimes much more strong than others. Every once in awhile its keeps going for awhile. Josh still has yet to feel it, but hopefully soon!! Even as I type this I feel the bubbles... Baby Ridley likes to moooove!
Well, that's about it for this update. Love you all!!
