24 weeks preggo and it's a BOY!!!! :D

Wow, hard to believe I'm almost in my 3rd trimester!!! Hard to believe that I only had 9 weeks left when I was prego with the girls. It's going to be different to actually go the full 40 weeks.
My appt went well, so far I've gained 11 lbs, blood pressure is great, yay, baby boy's heart rate is good.
Lil boy is active, at times, but makes me think he'll be a mellow baby, which would be nice. ;)
I've been having stomach issues this time and am doing everything I'm supposed to, but it's not helping. :( I've been snacking a lot and making myself smoothies, which gives me the nutrition I need, but is easy on my stomach. :) I've also been drinking a lot of 'murphy' tea, pink lemonade and water. :)



So far we've gotten the nursery accent wall painted, glider put up, borrowed the crib from Jenny and got it put up, too. I found a dresser/changing table at a yard sale for $10, it needs to be painted, runners and knobs, but hey, the price was right. Right now, my dad's making a removable base for it, it's too short and not tall enough for diaper changes. I've also been garage saleing this year and have found some clothes, so far.

20 weeks preggo!!!

Here was me at 12 weeks :)

and now 20 weeks :D


I can't believe I'm halfway through this pregnancy already!!! At my dr's appt we were comparing my pregnancy with the girls and realized that I was halfway through the pregnancy at 17 weeks!!! We were a little shocked and hope that this is my halfway point in this pregnancy. :)

I'm measuring right where I'm supposed to be, depending on our scale or dr's scale, I've gained 6-9 lbs. My blood pressure was 108/60, woo hoo!!!! Thank God, my blood pressure was already elevated with the girls at this time. Baby's heart rate is 138. :)

My cravings have changed, I'm loving fruit, any kind and can't wait for peaches to come out!!! ;) My new favorite drink is an Orange Carrot Sobe and soon to be slushies, homemade, once it warms up. :) Oh, and my biggest craving shocker.....hot wings!!!! I never liked anything hot like that, but now I have to have it atleast once a week!!! :o lol

I finally started feeling baby moving, off and on throughtout the day, what a relief!!! It's quite the change, considering I felt the girls move at 12 weeks and they never stopped, lol!! This baby is a lot more laid back and I think loves to sleep. :D

We get to find out if the girls are getting a lil brother or sister is 5 days!!!! I can't wait, it's been killer to have to wait. I'm excited to start decorating the nursery and getting it set up. :D

9 weeks

Teddy Graham is now the size of a grape, has grown about an inch since last week. Tiny muscles are beginning to form and he's gearing up to move his arms and legs.

So far I've been on Zofran for a week now and feel so much better, yay!!! :)
And I'm stoked that I have 3 weeks left of the nausea and exhaustion. :)

Cravings: well, I have a couple and unfortulately they have to be picked up, so I don't get them very often!! :(
Mocha Frappe from City Brew
Olive Garden Salad, mmmmm
Chicken Teriyaki Subway Sandwich
Raspberry Lemonade

The only wardrobe change I've had is that my pants don't fit so well, so I've been bumming around is sweats, a lot!!! lol :) Which is wierd, considering I've lost 4 lbs so far. I'm sure I'll make up for that once my appetite comes back. :)

Mat has said a couple times now that he can't wait for me to start showing, me either. :) Actually I can't wait to start feeling the baby move and I hope it's sooner with a second pregnancy!! :D
