We’re 35 weeks in people! I had my doctor’s appointment yesterday where they told me that I’m between 1-2cm dilated, but not very effaced yet. I’ve lost 3lbs in the two weeks since my last appointment. My belly is definitely growing though, so its me that lost the weight and not baby. My blood pressure […]
Its getting down to the wire! Week 34 has been met with some more discomfort as baby girl gets ever bigger. I’ve had the round ligament spasms, and a heaviness in my pelvis. Once in a while, she pushes with her feet and her head makes my cervix hurt. My lower back aches off and […]
Ivan is four years old!! This post and posts like it are for myself to look back on what my kids were like when they were little. Ivan has grown and changed so much this year. He is turning into a big boy that’s for sure. At his appointment, he weighed in at 29 pounds […]
Its week 33! I had my Ob appointment yesterday afternoon and had a little scare. My systolic blood pressure was in the 140s. They ended up re checking it before I left and it had dropped into the 130s, but that is still high for me. Pre pregnancy and in early pregnancy I usually run […]
Its week 32! Baby girl is about 3 3/4 pounds and gaining half a pound a week now. She has nails and probably hair – we might get to see how much at our 3d ultrasound next week! She gets hiccups a lot and is still facing directly forward. She moves a lot, pushing her […]
We went to the beach in Florida this summer. We rented a big beach house right on the beach for a whole week. Our house had a private fenced-in pool with a big landing as the first stair where little ones can wade in the water. The landing was huge. I could lay my whole […]
This summer, our family went on vacation to the gulf in Florida. We rented a 5 bedroom home, right on the beach with gulf front views. The water was quite literally right outside our front door. We had our own private swimming pool with a patio and barbecue area, as well as an outdoor shower. […]
Baby girl is 31 weeks in! This week has been pretty much the same. Heartburn is absolutely the worst symptom for me. It makes it so hard to eat because it seems like the second I swallow something, I get acid reflux. Laying down is hard. Finding something bland to eat is hard because I […]
A little late, but better than never. I had jury duty last week and that absolutely wore me out for two days. I had to take a recoup day Saturday and really didn’t accomplish much. I’ve been feeling really tired lately and back to the wanting to go to bed at 8pm thing. I get […]
Today I’m going to share a super delicious taco recipe that screams summer. These Mojo (moho) Pork Tacos are great for parties because they’re so easy to make in bulk. Everyone is sure to love them! They have just a hint of after-heat, perfect for washing down with your favorite summer beverage. Don’t like spicy? […]
