Our amazing Miracle is growing!

Right at about 15dpo I started cramping. I had already gotten my BFP at 14dpo so it was a bit scary. But being the freak I am, I did my research and knew that most women had some cramping during early pregnancy, if not their whole first trimester!
I remained positive and prayed so hard everyday, many times a day that God let us keep our blessing safe and healthy and in my belly to bake for the entire 40 week duration.
From about 5 weeks to 9 weeks, I dealt with morning sickness. I never threw up, so I know it could have been worse, but the constant on and off nause (not just morning!) was no fun. For the first two weeks I ate mostly saltines. I was losing weight pretty quickly and not feeling well.
Around 6-7 weeks I got diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes and got put on a very low sugar/low carb diet. This helped me curb my morning sickness little by little. I ate plenty of pickles too!
Around 9-10 weeks the nausea started to subside, but I wasn't in the clear! The headaches began
For a while it was every single night! I never had a headache in the morning, it always started early or late evening and wouldn't subside until I fell into a deep sleep. It sucked.
Around 15 weeks I learned that they were tension headaches and my doctor showed me some stretches that really helped my neck and shoulders relax. I'm now at 17 weeks and my headaches are getting less and less, but still come around when they feel like it!
Also 15-16 weeks I noticed my uterus getting pretty high and I was able to feel it on the outside. It's pretty hard!
During week 16-17 I started to show! DH was the first one to say it and it felt great. My belly is starting to poke out and I just can't keep my hands off myself!
Baby B - I love you, I love the feeling of you growing inside of me, getting stronger and healthier everyday. It's the most amazing journey I will ever and have ever gone through and I am so truly blessed to have you in my life. You have made me a Mommy, a better person, and you have given me so much happiness, you will never know.
