Walking in the Lord's Grace day by day....

15 Weeks

How big is baby: Avocado | 15 weeks
How I'm feeling: I got back to the gym 4 days last week and feeling good! Still a little bloated in the chest area, but good overall!
Weight gain/loss: 2.5-4
Stretch marks: None I see yet!
Sleep: Been harder this week. Having more hip and soas pain makes it harder to sleep. Also had a day where I had green tea and the caffeine DEFINITELY kept me up. No fun. Also need to do a better job of winding down at night no phone.
Diet/Cravings/Aversions: Was just HUNGRY this week. Which lead to making some GF items but overall did great with making two homemade soups! And trying out this amazing new food plan app called Paprika!!! (Thanks Kim!!)
Movement: None yet. Have I told you lately, that I CAN'T WAIT!
What I'm loving: That I am slowly finding my groove again. Singing and dancing to music has been great lately.
Symptoms: Soreness after workouts. Soas right hip pain and pinching. Itchy boobies. Also update on #2 issues ----> Green smoothies to save the day!!! Seriously so excited about this, I was in tears when I would hit the bathroom for weeks before so yea Kale & Spinach!!!  Another symptom, starting to show just a tiny bit, but more after I eat a meal, which is when I took this photo.
What I'm looking forward to: My 16/17 week appt next Monday. I just am anxious to hear the heartbeat again and see my doc since it's been since 12 weeks that we were in the office.
Best moment of the week: Getting my taxes done early! (Almost done) but they have always been a huge stress come March/April but this year I stayed on top of it more! Whew! Also Matt coming home from ice fishing was great too! I don't sleep well without him!
Verse that I am clinging to: I instagramed my verse this week.

Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad. (Proverbs 12:25 ESV)

This is so true! There is so much that I can choose to be anxious about (there will always be). Hoping that our baby is still going strong in my womb. That he or she is healthy. Anxious about how all the timing will go around my wedding season and how I will feel. So many things to be worried about but The Lord doesn't want us to focus on the "what if's" He wants us to focus on Him. Only Him.
