So how about a picture update??
The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure that we do every year was absolute torture this year. It was so freaking HOT. My hands started swelling immediately and I couldn't get my wedding ring off. That has never happened to me before. LOL
My 1st baby shower with my side of the family (women shower) was amazing! Baby girl got so much stuff. I really couldn't believe it. When F came to pick me up he was worried about fitting it all in the car. We managed to get it all in with strategic packing though. :)
Everything has been going smoothly pretty much.
My appts are now bi-weekly. WHAT!!
At my 28 week appt last week my OB really really upset me.
First off my weight gain has been very consistent at about 4-5 pounds a month. Which is a lot. I am aware. My weight has steadily been going up in that pattern so I am not sure why she just now felt the need to mention something and I don't appreciate the manner that she did it. Whatever, I am emotional.
So she told me that my weight is borderline excessive and that leads to a higher risk of c-section. Fuck off, lady. I am not pigging out shoving cookies and ice cream in my mouth. I try to stay active and walk in the evenings.
Then she tells me that if I want to induce I should go ahead and schedule it now because "that time of year inductions book up really fast and they only take so many". Again, fuck off lady. Why would I want to schedule an induction for no medical reason? I told her no thanks. If I need to induce for a medical reason then fine, no problem. But I am not going to schedule one for pure convenience.
So yea, I left that appt bawling my eyes out.
I will update soon with nursery progress. I am trying to get her stuff organized and I am waiting on some curtains to be delivered. I plan to get a lot done this weekend since my mom is coming over to help me. We will do some crafts for her room and shopping.
Oh and I can't wait to update with all the gifts people made for baby girl that I got at the shower. They all made me cry.
How far along? 29w5d
Weight: 139
Stretchmarks: Not from this pregnancy.
Sleep: I can sleep anytime I just wake up a million times to pee and reposition my self. I feel like a roly poly every time I have to get out of bed.
Best moment last week: My first baby shower.
Movement: Yep, active lil girl in there! She goes crazy. My belly starts looking really deformed as she moves around. I am starting to feel more rolling and sliding.
Food cravings/aversions: No.
Sex: GIRL!
Belly Button: In and very flat. Sometimes when she is moving like crazy she pushes it out. That really freaks me out. I really hope my belly button does not pop out. I am not sure why I am so weirded out by it.
What I miss: Bending over normally and not feeling fat. Oh and sleeping though the night without having to wake up to pee.
What am I looking forward to? I am looking forward to quality time with my mom this Saturday while F attends the UFC fights. F's birthday Tuesday. His family's co-ed baby shower next weekend.
Milestones: I am in third tri now!! Crazy.
