Tomorrow my mom and I are flying out to Stef's to watch her 3 kids while her and John romance in Maui. I think this will either make or break me. So we'll see how strong I really am being prego.
And last but not least, I saw this survey a lot with some girls that were pregant and loved reading them so I wanted to do one too. Enjoy. Oh and my Birthday is next Friday the 10th just in case anyone wanted to send me soemthing :)
Happy LoVe MoNtH!
Almost 20 weeks
28 Weeks
How Far Along: 28 Weeks
Size of baby: 2-ish weeks ago she was 2 lbs. 1 oz.
Maternity Clothes: I put those off as long as I could, got a maternity shirt for Christmas which was the comfiest thing I've worn, so now it's all maternity pants and mix between regular and maternity shirts.
Gender: GIRL
Name: Thinking of 1 in particular.. :) Need a middle name
Movement: Lots of movement on my right side, feeling hiccups, and sometimes the movement gets uncomfortable especially when she thinks she's an Octopus or Ninja. Real funny girlfriend.
Sleep: Hard to fall asleep then I'm fine until Brody gets up at 4:30am everyday and I'm wide awake for about an hour after he's gone.. And Brody thinks I act like a bird when getting into bed and calls it "making my nest" because I move the blankets, pillows, and whatever else until I'm comfy. Therefore, calling it my nest makes sense I guess.
Cravings: Can't think of anything I'm dying for. Except today I made a special trip to the grocery store for some cottage cheese. Mix that with garlic salt and dip some salty chips in. YUM.
Symptoms: My laugh has definitely changed. Whenever I laugh really hard (of course I almost pee my pants) but the part where you're quiet and nothing comes out because you're laughing so hard, well I get all wheezy. So the other name Brody has given me is "Wheezy". I don't actually know if this is a symptom of pregnancy.. is it?
And my SI joint is not being very friendly.
Weird Things: I recieved my first set of stretch marks in a weird spot. On the sides of both my legs in the exact same spot.Not the places I thought I would get them.. T.M.I. for anyone? Sorry.
Worries: I've been hearing a lot of stories from random people saying they had their baby 5 weeks early (2 people to be exact). And I know a few girls who had their babies 3 months early.. That freaks me out.
Best Moment of the Week(s): When Brody can fill and SEE her moving.
Appointments This Week: Had my appointment 2 weeks ago. Did the glucose test and thinking it was fine since I haven't heard anything back yet. Getting 3D ultrasounds is awesome!
What I’m looking forward to: Baby Showers :) We have nothing for her yet.
Something I've Learned/Realized: When my sisters say you loose your brain when you're pregnant is an ACTUAL FACT. If I don't write something down I won't remember it. ever. I can tell a difference that I'm loosing it too and I hate it! I have a hard time remembering words and doing simple things. They say you never get it back either. oh boy.
