PREGNANCY UPDATE WEEKS 29 - 32

Image
WEEK 29 I can't believe that we are officially in the 3rd trimester! Like honestly it is so crazy! I definitely have noticed that I am starting to pee more! Which is so annoying because going to the bathroom is so much work!😂 But it is fine! One thing that I have been loving is my thermal cup! I bought this  cup  from Wal-Mart, and it is seriously my most favorite thing ever! Since I got it and an ice tray, I have been drinking so much water! I also have had an increase in heartburn. I have had it for awhile but seriously it wasn't bad at all. But it has been only at night so that is okay. I still have no cravings, but have been eating a little more! WEEK 30 This week I felt lots and lots more movement! It feels like he is playing ping pong in there! He is also moving more and more throughout the day! But my heartburn stopped this week! I noticed that all I want to do is snack! I don't want to eat actual meals, just give me a bag of chips and I am good! My stomach has ...

OPENING UP ABOUT MY MISCARRIAGE

Image
I have been thinking about sharing my experience of going through a miscarriage for awhile now, and I am finally doing it because it is the anniversary of finding out! Only a few family and friends know about our miscarriage because it wasn't something I wanted to share. If I could describe a miscarriage in one word, I think that it would be heartbreaking. It is emotionally, mentally, and physically exhausting. I felt so discouraged, and I was mad at myself. I felt that it was my fault. But if you are going through one, or end up going through one, remember that it isn't your fault! I think it took me along time to realize that, even though people told me that it wasn't. Miscarriage is hard, but I am so grateful to have experienced such a trial. Okay, so it was May 11th, 2017 and I was getting ready to go teach my water aerobics class. And before I got my swimsuit on, I was like... maybe I will take a pregnancy test. We had 1 left in our closet, and so I took it, an...

PREGNANCY UPDATE WEEKS 25 - 28

Image
Only 11 weeks until he is here! This is so crazy!!!!!! WEEK 25 This week was pretty boring. Not a whole lot going on. I have been tossing and turning a lot at night, but I feel like I have do that anyways so that is really nothing new. I feel that my energy has been pretty good, a little tired here and there. I am still waiting on that pregnancy glow though! WEEK 26 He has been constantly kicking non stop! I use to only feel him in the mornings and nights, but since the beginning of this week he has kicked throughout the day as well! It is so fun to feel him wiggle around so much! He is the size of kale! (according to my app) We are going to be doing a 3D ultrasound sometime in the next couple of weeks, and I am seriously so excited! Like, I can't wait to see his smushed little face! WEEK 27 I forgot to take notes on this week! But there hasn't been a lot of change! He is moving more and more and my stomach has gotten a little it bigger! Not much though. I ca...

PREGNANCY UPDATE WEEKS 21-24

Image
WEEK 21 What a week it has been! We have been moving apartments this week, and my back is killing! I haven't really lifted much, but just from bending over to load and unload boxes has killed me! I have the worst back in the world I swear. I have been feeling so good other than that! Just feeling tired and lazy. Like that is all I can say about it. I don't want to do anything! I just want to lay down all the time! He loves kicking around, which makes me feel better! It is always kind of nerve racking when they haven't moved in awhile! He is still sticking to his routine of kicking around 7:30 AM and 9:30/10 at night! He is still just active when there is pressure on my belly! Also some cramping, but it hasn't been bad! WEEK 22 I have just been so tired from moving! It takes it all out of you! He has been kicking even more! He kicks every time I eat, so I am assuming that that is a good thing! We bought his crib and got that all set up! I realized that I only have li...

PREGNANCY UPDATE WEEKS 17-20

Image
I can't believe this is my 4th pregnancy update! But I am so glad the days are flying by! Also, this is such a long update! But I don't have anything else to say! WEEK 17 My weeks are getting better! I am eating small portions, and keeping it down! But sometimes it is a fight to. I am still getting pretty sick after eating, but I don't get as nauseous anymore! I am throwing up about once a week now, which I am not mad about! But this week I have been getting really really really bad stomach aches. Other than that I have been pretty tired but haven't napped at all because when I nap I no joke sleep for 3+ hours, and then I have the hardest time falling asleep. I am still only getting up to use the bathroom once a night. And it is always around 3 in the morning. I am just glad it isn't more than that! Even though I know it will get more frequent! The last day of this week I ended up getting strep! We caught it literally the day of and got right into the doctors!...

PREGNANCY UPDATE WEEKS 13-16

How is it time for another update already! These weeks are not flying so fast since I am not as sick anymore! Like no joke! It is so crazy, but anyways! I just want to tell all of you thank you so much for reading my blog! It seriously does mean so much! And I finally took a picture of my baby pump! And I still can fit in my jeans! Today I am 17 weeks and 1 day! Also, I am just so awkward in photos it isn't even funny! I look pretty big, but I think that it is the way I am standing! Because I don't really think that I am this big! Lol! WEEK 13 This week wasn't much different than week 12. I wasn't as sick, but still pretty sick. I did get lots and lots of headaches this week! Which sucked butt! I was in bed for like 2 days because they were so bad. I also was nauseous during the really bad ones, but not during the little ones. I didn't keep notes at all this time, so I suck. But I still wasn't eating anything. Nothing sounded good, at all! When I wasn't...

PREGNANCY UPDATE WEEKS 9-12

I am a couple weeks behind on posting this! I had it already to get post, but I was just so sick and busy that I didn't! Like, I don't even have a good picture of the ultrasound, but I am to lazy to do it now! So its a little late, but better late than never! I can't believe that it is time for another pregnancy update! These last few weeks have for sure been the hardest yet! I have just been so sick, I can't even handle it! It is driving me insane! But let's just start with week 9! WEEK 9 This week was pretty much the same as week 8. A lot of laying around, and doing nothing. I did move on from soup, I sorta got grossed out by it and haven't really had much since. I did notice only one craving.....STUFFED MEXI FRIES! These are seriously my favorite! If you don't have a TacoTime where you live, I am so sorry for you! I did go a few times in just that week to get them! Other than that, there were no other food cravings, and nothing sounded good at all! T...
