Amanda is feeling TONS better! Thanks to everyone's prayers and thoughts! She is in her 13th week and hasn't been sick for about 5 days now! She still gets the occasional nausea but overall feeling better and has much more energy! We have our first appointment with our midwife Cathy this week and we look forward to hearing the heartbeat and finding out if things are moving along normally. Amanda is also starting to grow out of her pants ALREADY! Last week for church she wore her favorite black skirt and then 6 days later when she went to put it on for a baptism, she couldn't get it zipped more than halfway, it was pretty traumatic :0! We are in the process of looking for a bigger apartment here in Provo and getting more and more excited as our pregnancy continues. We'll update soon when the belly pics look more like she's prego than like she ate a really big meal and is bloated! Thanks again for everyone's advice and support!
PS-For anyone that is, or ever has been pregnant or their wife has, did you ever feel like you were losing your mind sometimes? I (Amanda) have been Miss Forgetful lately. I'll get up to do something and then forget why I got up. At work I cant keep on top of things which normally I am an organized freak! It's so wierd, I just feel like sometimes I have short term memory loss, oh well! Has this happened to anyone else?

Wow, a post by Braden. Love it! Unless Amanda just likes referring to herself in the third person.
Thanks for the update! Is it really Braden or is this Amanda? I've had the same problem with regard to the clothes and I'm not even pregnant... Hmmmm.
Haha, it's actually Amanda, I couldn't get Braden to make a post to save my life. I dont know why I started writing in the third person but I couldn't stop because I didn't want to re-write the whole thing. Oh well, I feel like I;m losing my mind anyways.
Happy Birthday Amanda!! We wish we could be there to celebrate with you - to see your growing tummy - and to remind you that it really is your birthday! I (Mary) can only promise you that your current memory loss will only increase with your pregnancy and most certainly with continued motherhood.
I am so glad you are feeling better. Sounds like things are going well in the pregnancy. You are not alone on feeling like you forget things or misplace things, etc. It gets even worse once you actually have the baby. Something to look forward to.
hey girlie, welcome to motherhood. I lost my mind in my short 26 weeks of being pregnant and haven't regained in the almost 2 years since. It's a joy of motherhood. Best advice is to start using a planner or put post it notes everywhere as reminder.
I am glad you are feeling better
I lost my mind when I was pregnant with Hailey and never got it back. The note suggestion works well. As soon as a thought pops in your head write it down cause it probably won't be there for long and you probably won't get it back!
Glad you are feeling better. Only 7 more weeks until you find out what you are having! That makes it all worth it.
Your memory keeps going with each kid! some days are worse than others. I used to be able to remember everything and now if I don't write it down, it gets forgotten, especially if it doesn't have something to do with me. I guess we start forgetting now since you're going to have more kids and sometimes you have to forget---just so you will have more. One of life's cruel jokes. :) Love you
Amanda,
Sorry to tell ya sister but from the sounds of it ALL mothers have lost their mind and it just gets worse with every pregnancy! So sorry but SO worth it. Pretty soon you'll forget how old you are, and the names of your kids... good luck. We are SOOOO excited for you guys!
Hey love! I'm glad you're feeling better! As far as loosing your mind, I don't know since I've never been pregnant or anything, but I have worked with tons of kids before and you do loose your mind when you're trying to multi-task! Anyways can't wait to see pics of your cute prego self! I love you! Call me!
Oh, and also happy birthday! I know I said it to you on your facebook, but....I hope it was awesome!
i'm glad you're feeling a little better amanda. the second trimest is usually the best.
and the whole "losing your mind" definitely gets worse. sorry.
can't wait to see some belly pics!
i bet you'll be a darling prego lady.

i can't even remember how to spell!
hey I was excited to hear from you. I am glad that everything is going well for you.
Ya we like our little Isaiah. We are actually trying again for another baby but keep having miscarriages. Oh well.
