So I am officially 17 weeks pregnant, and this picture was just taken tonight. I don't think I really have a belly yet, at least not that obvious to other people.I think I look like I just put on a few lbs. It is definitely obvious to me though, my pants feels really tight these days. Feel free to let me know what you think of my belly, nothing can offend me.
Some thing I actually found interesting was that I lost 4 lbs in between my first appointment and my last which was a period of about 5 weeks. My doc said that was completely healthy even though I wasn't that sick in my first trimester. Jared seems to think I need to eat more... which sounds good to me lately. I have certainly got my appetite back more recently, so expect I will but on some weight by my next appointment, even though honestly I was kinda happy I had lost a little weight instead of gain a ton.
Yesterday was pretty cool, we got to hear the heartbeat for the first time. Since I work in a clinic I get to hear fetal heart beats quite regularly, but it was so much cooler that it was coming from my abdomen! My doc said that she was impressed with how healthy I was being and that I was a good role model for other pregnant people out there, which made me feel really good.
So far in this pregnancy I went snowboarding (back during spring break), and I have climbed a mountain! Jared and I took a trip to Southern Utah last week and we camped/ saw 5 or 6 different National parks. We did one - two hikes a day. I will be blogging about those in the near future so stayed tuned.

Congrats! Good work on all your hiking! No wonder you have lost weight and not gained it. I lost weight in the first trimester too with out being sick. I think for me I just went to bed earlier at nights because I was so tired I cut out my night snacking and lost weight!! If only I could do that now!
Super cute blog Lyndi!! I will definitely be following it from now on ... I hope that's ok ;) I'm so excited to hear you're preggo! You look absolutely AMAZING!!! I figured that since you just announced the news (on facebook that is ...) you must be around 12 weeks ... you're super tiny and soooo cute! Are you finding out what you're having at your ultrasound? I'm so impressed with all you've done since being pregnant! I was so nauseous, walking up the stairs did me in! I'm glad you're doing so well and hope the rest of the pregnancy goes well for you!! Mommyhood is exhausting, but so much fun!!
