Vegan Pregnancy Update {Week 21}

How Far Along: 21 weeks 5 days Size: About 12oz and 10.51in head to toe. Food comparison – Carrot. He/she is as long as a carrot but a little chunkier thank goodness! Weight gain: ? I probably should just buy a scale right? Gender: We keep asking baby to kick once if it's a boy and twice for a girl, but baby is not cooperating. Baby bump: Literally bumpin’ about. The 19-20week was the growth spurt, now it feels like more gradual growing. I am watching this one stretch mark that is ... View the Post

Vegan Pregnancy Update {Week 20}

How Far Along: 20 weeks 5 days - Half way! Size: About 10oz and 6½ inches long - head to rump (10 inches head to toe).  Wow!  Food comparison – Banana. Hope my baby isn’t that skinny though! Weight gain: I don’t actually own a scale. Last week I was weighed (for life insurance) but this week I don’t know, sorry! Gender: It felt like a boy this week, but the 19 weeks before I thought it was a girl ;) We are waiting till he/she arrives to officially find out. Baby bump: It’s my ... View the Post

Vegan Pregnancy Update {Week 19}

How Far Along: 19 weeks 5 days Size: 8½oz and about 6 inches long. Food comparison – Mango?! What? I think the Heirloom tomato version seems more likely. Weight gain: 7lbs (3kg for my SA friends and family. Scratch that - for the rest of the world!) Gender: Keeping it a surprise (From ourselves, not just you guys!) Baby bump: Loving my baby bump. It’s clearly a preggo bump and not a food-baby bump. I pat it and rub it all day long. Is that normal? Movement: Still nothing that I ... View the Post

Vegan Pregnancy Update {Week 18}

How Far Along: 18 weeks 5 days Size: 8oz and about 5 ½ inches long. Food comparison – Potato! Weight gain: I don’t own a scale sorry! Gender: We still don’t know (Looking away at the ultrasound was pure torture! I don’t know how long I can keep this up!) Baby bump: It’s a biggish, solid bump! I am almost half way and already quite uncomfortable in the evenings. Oh dear! Also…I can still feel my own skin stretching after dinner…how much bigger am I going to get? Movement: ...

Why we’re choosing a Birthing Center

Two of my friends mentioned Baby+Company before my husband and I had even begun thinking about starting a family, so naturally I wasn't really paying attention. Sorry ladies! However, after I found out I was expecting, I decided to check it out. While a home birth seemed a little daunting for my first birthing experience, the hospital experience sounded rushed and medicated. I discovered that birthing centers are a brilliant blend of the two and I was so glad to explore another option. I ... View the Post

Vegan Pregnancy Update {Week 17}

How Far Along: 17 weeks 5 days Size: About 5 oz and 5 inches long. Fruit comparison – Onion! Weight gain: 6 lbs Gender: We don’t know (Eeeek!) Baby bump: Started to pop this week! In the mornings it is still small but by the time I go to bed I can almost feel my own skin stretching! Movement: I’ve woken up twice from a movement in my stomach but I was practically asleep so I can neither confirm nor deny that it was our little one. I’m waiting for something a little more obvious ... View the Post

What {pregnant} vegans really eat: Kendra Edition

Besides "Where do you get your protein?", the second question Ensley and I answer the most often is "So...what do you eat?". Pregnancy has made people even more curious about my routines and daily meals. A few weeks ago, Ensley gave you her version of this post (sans pregnancy!), and now it's my turn. Check out my favorite routines and meals below! 9:00 am After sleeping for about 10 hours, waking up a few times in the night (thanks pregnancy!), I drink Kangen water to get me going. I ...

Boy or Girl? Why We Aren’t Finding Out the Gender

In a calculated and over-organized world, we plan a lot. We have “To Do” lists, grocery lists (which are essential to me otherwise I don’t buy the item I needed in the first place) and meal plans on top of keeping up with appointments, meetings and chores you need to do around the house. As a teacher, I possess many organizational and management skills (no, I’m not applying for a job right now), including thinking ahead 20 steps in order to avoid potential disasters. These skills are vital as ... View the Post

Vegan Pregnancy: The First Trimester

Oh the flutter of your heart when you look at that stick and see a little blue cross. It was so faint the first time I had a positive pregnancy test that I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. Was I just imagining it? I took another test the next day and, there it was-another blue cross. I was definitely not making it up. Feeling a bit embarrassed, I googled "faint positive pregnancy test", and I saw that it was a pretty common search. Whew. Apparently false positives are very rare ... View the Post
