Long Time, No blog!

Posted on by

I cannot believe that I have not blogged for as long as I have.

I am now at 34 weeks of my pregnancy and some days it feels like the first trimester all over again!

 

How Far Along: 34w

Weight Gain/Loss: I have gained a total of 25-27 pounds so far.

Sleep:  up about 8 times a night, about 2-3 times to pee and the other just not comfortable.

Best Moment This Week: My little man distorting my stomach

Movement: all the time, he actually can lodge his little feet into my right ribs and it can be quite painful sometimes.

Food Cravings/Aversions: I crave different foods everyday

What I Miss: Cannot really think of anything that I really miss, I just really hope my little man makes his appearance soon 🙂

Stretch Marks:  ohhhh yeahhh, they started really coming out about 2-3 weeks ago.

Belly Button:  flat, sometimes it sticks out just a tiny bit when his butt is facing outwards and if hes the other way, it is in a little bit.

Mood: very tired all the time

Upcoming Appointments/Events:  Doctor checkup this Wednesday

What I look forward to: Little man making his appearance soon 🙂

Just 2-6 more weeks to go<3

 

 

 

My Best Friend

Posted on by

I haven’t just blogged about other things besides my pregnancy, I feel like changing it up since I use to write about other things too…

 

It’s been nearly 4 years since I have met the man of my life! Holy cow is all I can say. Young love at it’s best, fell in love at 16/17! Some may say we  were too young to know what true love really is, but really? We are still in love with each other at 21 years of age.

If anything the people telling us we did not know what true love was, never experienced true love themselves.

Anyone else in love with their best friend? Yes, my man is my best friend. I literally can tell him anything and everything, not only can we act like lovers but can joke around like best friends. It’s an amazing feeling.

For those who haven’t found their soul mates, you will 🙂 Only time can predict that..its fate….

No I am not trying to make this all sappy and icky, but I am truly happy with him. I do not need any other “friends” in my life to be honest. I have my man and my son on the way, who would wanna live life any different?

 

I have suffered depression, I have self-harmed, I have been through hell and back. But look at me now, an entire turn around. It’s amazing what love can do to you…..crazy crazy things I tell you!

 

❤ ahhhh 🙂

Man has it really been a month since I have posted? I am so behind xD whoops!

I decided once I got to 4 months I would start doing the good ole pregnancy questionnaire everyone does 😉

asdfsdf

How Far Along: 16w 1D

 

Weight Gain/Loss:  +6lbs

 

Sleep:  Was not getting that good of sleep with the horrible headaches I was getting, but after going to the chiropractor I feel so much better and get a good nights sleep, though the baby still wakes me up with a full bladder or him/her jumping on it haha!

 

Best Moment This Week:  Hearing the heartbeat again at my 4 month check-up.

 

Movement: Flutters, should really start feeling the movement soon 🙂

 

Food Cravings/Aversions: All food lol, We are always hungry!!!!

 

What I Miss: Nothing, I am enjoying this pregnancy 🙂

 

Stretch Marks:  Nope, been applying cocoa butter every night!

 

Belly Button:  In, I honestly don’t think mine will even pop out when I do get bigger.

 

 

Mood: Depends on the day, these hormones have minds of their own!

 

 

Milestones:   Getting bloodwork done to check for birth defects, I say this is a milestone because not a lot of mothers’ do get this done, because of the stress it could cause. But no matter what I will love our little one!

Hello second trimester!

Posted on by

Time sure is flying by!
13w 4days almost 14. End of first trimester right into the second.

I can sure say I have a tiny baby bump showing already, pretty exciting!

I do feel flutters here and there if I put my hand on my abdomen!

I can’t wait to see our little one in 6 weeks & will know what we are having!

My nausea is almost fully gone; I do get it here and there, but definitely not like it was!

I do not fit into my jeans anymore and nearly not fitting into my khakis for work! Maternity pants will need to be bought soon 😦

Family is already buying the baby stuff, couldn’t be more blessed!

I had a great Xmas and will have a great New Years because in 2014 we will meet our little one : ).

Hope everyone has a great New Years!

3 Months

Happy to say we heard a very fast, clear and healthy heartbeat today! Our baby is very active and moves ALOT!

My nausea is starting to go away, good news 🙂
I’ve only gained 1 pound since my very first ob appointment, also good!
No movement feeling yet, too early!
But I’m starting to get a baby bump 🙂 very exciting! Hope y’all have a very merry Xmas and happy new year 🙂 I know we will! 🙂

Hormonal Mess

Posted on by

I do not blog as much as I thought I would be. Truth is, I am a hormonal mess right now!

My in-laws move to Mexico in just 2 days, its too real now.

My man and I argue a little more, and I hate it (its all my fault), well my hormones fault.

I really hope in the next few weeks that I start feeling more energized and myself again, no I am not depressed…just lost in my hormones.

This pregnancy has my hormones all over the place, making me looney!

I love the little one growing inside me and I can’t stress enough how blessed I am for him/her and the man in my life, BOTH are a complete blessing and what has been keeping me sane.

How far along am I? 11 weeks (almost 2nd trimester (: )

Symptoms: nausea, lower back pain, very tender breasts, occasional headaches, constipation, mood swings…

haha like I said my hormones are messing with me big time, but I know it will all be worth it!

The baby is the size of a small lime this week 🙂 thats exciting!

Hope everyone is having a good day and week so far 🙂
