Nutrition (7 weeks 1 day)

I am now 7 weeks pregnant. Well actually 7 weeks and 1 day. I am amazed on how I know exactly how far along I am now everyday. I always knew pregnant women knew how far along they were but I am wondering if I am going to know to the exact day through my entire pregnancy.

Last night Brian and I did our grocery shopping. We focused on getting a lot of nutritious foods for us and baby. We usually eat healthy but we are extra focused on nutrition now. We got 100% whole grain bread. It costs more but for the nutrition value it is worth it. We also got whole grain pasta. I have planned out our meals this week. I am going to try to eat meat for dinner everyday. I am still worried about protein. I need 75 grams of protein a day. I think I am close to that. There is protein in diary, cereals, and breads. Also my new favorite anti-nausea food is graham crackers.

Starting last week, Brian takes my picture every week so we will be able to see as I grow. At first I did not care about it but now I think it is a good idea. I currently weigh 132-133 pounds. I have weighed that for about a year. I have not gained any weight yet. Although in the first trimester, you are only suppose to gain 3-5 pounds.

I have to pee a lot now! I am drinking a lot of water but I am still going much more than usual. At night, I get up at least once sometimes twice. I cannot hold it like I use to.

Tonight our family is coming over for dinner. Again no one knows I am pregnant. I think we are going to wait about another 4 weeks to make sure everything is okay. Time to go prepare dinner and hide all of the baby books.
