Times I cried during pregnancy: 1, at 8 weeks when I started bleeding and thought that I miscarried

Weeks it took me to heal: 8
Days Allyssa spent in the NICU: 19
Times I threw up during pregnancy: 36 all after 16 weeks
Cravings: food that didn't hurt being thrown up (not granola; yay for mashed potatoes)

Times I cried during pregnancy: 1, at 7 weeks when I started bleeding and the ultrasound showed that there was no baby (it was wrong)
Pounds gained: 25
Cravings: none
Times I threw up: 2 (random times)

Pregnancy #3
Kaytlin Elizabeth Vandercook
Not born yet
Started spilling protein at 32 weeks; at 33 weeks no longer spilling
Bled at 8 weeks; baby was fine
Number of times I cried: I bled at 8 weeks, but since I'd done it before, I wasn't as worried; she turned out to be fine, just like the others; I did cry once though (got yelled at about the pumpkin patch so much that I peed in my pants, after being yelled at I cried for several hours)
Times I threw up: none
Cravings: after I got told that I had gestational diabetes, I wanted the things I wasn't supposed to have until I discovered that I could eat them anyways and my numbers never did get too high
Weight gained: 19 pounds so far (33 weeks)

I can't wait to see what the rest of Kaytlin's statistics are! I hope that I make it a couple more weeks before getting sick!
