SELF PORTRAIT HOW-TO: This week i kept things simple. I stood at a 45-degree angle from my window and focused where my stomach would be. I didn't have to worry as much about focus since my face wasn't included, but i still wanted my hands and the pattern on my skirt to come in clear. I exposed a little under to make sure the white areas weren't blown out.

WEEK 10 MONTH 3 | NOVEMBER 15TH - NOVEMBER 21ST
B A B Y O L I V E

Holy crap this baby has an appetite! I can't keep up with it!! I eat a large meal and within an hour i can feel my stomach growling again!

I feel like i should wait awhile since i had just eaten a lot, but there's only so long i can wait before I start to feel very sick. The empty stomach feeling is the worst. I've found that when i eat a large meal, i feel more sick right after, compared to just grazing all day. Not too different from when i'm not pregnant. I tend to feel sick right before eating and right after eating. But i feel great while I'm eating! I haven't been able to start working out yet. I feel too tired. I am really hoping that in a week's time my sickness will subside. I want to be able to pig out on Thanksgiving goodies freely and enjoyable. Only time will tell!

I still haven't told anyone at work other than a few people that knew from the very beginning. So far I can hide it pretty easily, but i can feel my body changing faster so I'm not sure how easy it will be in the coming weeks. I'd like to wait until 14 weeks to reveal this baby to the world. Mike and I always feel a bit unsure of things until 14 weeks, since that's when we found out about losing our first baby. That means we've got only about a month until we can stop holding our breath!
