Woof, late posting! Last Friday marked 28 weeks on this journey- it’s really going quickly. I feel like just yesterday I was in my first trimester, and now we’re at 3rd trimester! I’m also starting to realize that in about 12 weeks, I’m going to actually have a baby- and I haven’t spent any time …
We are 27 weeks pregnant!! Officially made it to the 3rd trimester! This morning I had my glucose tolerance test to test for Gestational Diabetes- it was not bad, but it was not awesome. They have you arrive having fasted since the night before, and give you a super syrupy, sugary thick-ish drink (either lemon-lime …
Ugh, late post! So, I won’t have a picture this week, since I don’t have a way to transfer the picture from the camera (I left it in Erie), which is a bummer. Last week was super busy! It was my 29th birthday- I can hardly believe that I’m 29. I had a tough week, …
I almost cry thinking about me at 5 weeks- to think I was worried that I might be having a “fat day” that day- um, I was very clearly out of my mind. Even in just the last 5 weeks, I am shocked at how much growing this little guy has done! I read that …
At 24 weeks, I’m starting to feel, well, huge. And I know I ain’t seen nothin’ yet…compared to how I will be before I deliver, but I’m definitely starting to feel the sheer size of my ever-expanding belly. Apparently, my uterus is the size of a soccer ball this week!! So….yeah, huge. And, I’ve decided …
Time is starting to fly…it’s already been 23 weeks! We have just a couple of months before baby boy will be here! Two of those months, I will be away on rotation again (boo), and by the time I come back, I will be just 5 short weeks away from my due date (I cannot …
We’re at 22 weeks, and we had our gender reveal party yesterday! And guess what…IT’S A BOY!!! Here’s how the party worked: we had our ultrasound on Thursday, where they said the baby looks healthy, and wrote down the gender, and sealed it in an envelope. We took that envelope (without opening it, which was …
This week has been busy, but much better! Only rarely do I still have any morning nausea- and it passes very quickly (thank GOODNESS). For some reason, strong garlic just churns my tummy, even still. It’s so weird! This week entailed a surprise blizzard on last Sunday night~ we took in about 18″ snow in …
At 20 weeks, we’re halfway there! I can’t believe we’re already halfway! This past week was the first week I didn’t have any morning sickness! Finally~ it’s been forever since I felt like my old self! I hope this keeps up; I’m really liking feeling like my old self again. 11 days until my next …
We’re 19 weeks! Almost halfway there- and here’s hoping that the second half of this pregnancy is smoother/easier than the first half! Within this past week, as I hinted on last week’s post, I came down with the stomach flu- but it turned last Monday into the upper respiratory flu/pneumonia. Really?! Who gets both types …
