Sleep: I feel like I’ve been waking up more often. One night I woke up at 3 am and couldn’t get back to sleep until about 4. I did get up once in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. That was the first time since I’ve been pregnant.

Dreams: Lots of vivid dreams again, but nothing that stands out too much. I found out that pregnant women have all these dreams not because we are actually having more of them, but because REM sleep is interrupted more, causing us to remember the dreams.

Symptoms: Headaches! Bleh. I get about 2 headaches a week. Tylenol barely helps. Hopefully these will lessen and not get worse. My stomach has days where it feels “tight” and other days it feels more normal.

Emotions: Still pretty mellow.

Movement: None yet!

Appointments: None this past week, but I scheduled our gender ultrasound appointment for November 15th!

Exercise:
- Tuesday: 25 minutes on elliptical, upper and lower body weights
- Thursday: 45 minutes on treadmill. 3 minute run at 5.0, 1 ½ minute walk at 3.5
- Sunday: Hiking

Maternity wear: Still rockin the Bella Band! One day I opted not to wear it, but it was too uncomfortable. My awesome Stepmom bought me a pair of jeans and some tops! Hopefully I’ll find them on my doorstep this week.

Baby related purchases: I bought Baby Bargains on Amazon. I only flipped through, but it looks like it has tons of reviews and info on what to spend money on and what to buy cheap. It also lists a lot of great websites for discounts and baby gear info.
