So I am going to start this post out for apologizing for what you are about to read. I am going to dump my stress and feelings here and I hope that it doesn’t make this an awful post to read. Today has just been a long day and I am so ready to go […]
My baby boy is the size of a melon at 4 and 3/4 pounds! He is still pretty active for as crowded as we are getting. I seem to have lost my appetite this week and I don’t really want to eat anything. There are days when I have to make myself pick something from […]
Only 48 days(ish) to go! Baby brother is starting to run out of room in there. I had my NST Monday and it went smoothly; still no dilation but regular Braxton Hicks. I saw the nurse practitioner at my appointment Wednesday and she said that baby is passing his tests with flying colors so they […]
In my honest opinion, I don’t think you need much of anything for baby when you go to the hospital. The hospital/birthing center will usually provide you with everything that you need to get through those couple days that you stay. Diapers, wipes, formula (if you choose), binkie, a swaddle and even a little onsie. […]
This week has been another pretty average week. My second NST went much more smoothly and I was in and out in just over an hour. I even waited for a room because OB was busy. They didn’t do any extra testing even though my contractions were still consistent. I am really anxious to hear […]
Last Thursday I had my first NST. I went to radiology at 2 and got the biophysical profile done and then headed to the OB ward. My nurse hooked me up to the monitors and then started asking questions for my chart (height, weight, how many pregnancies, medical history blah blah blah). After we got […]
Today I had a doctors appointment. It was one of those in and out ones. I saw the nurse practitioner instead of my doctor today because he was at the hospital. There wasn’t a whole lot to go over or check up on today so it was pretty fast. I got a note to get […]
I’m in the home stretch you guys! Baby brother is the size of a head of cabbage this week. He definitely has a sleep/wake schedule in place which is fun. He wakes up right as I get to work in the mornings and stays awake until I eat breakfast. He also wakes up when I […]
Sorry I’m a day late! Yesterday I had a lot of catching up to do on the laundry pile and housework that I didn’t have time to post. This week Little Brother is the size of an eggplant and about 2 1/4 pounds. He must have turned last night because today I have noticed that […]
Two pounds and 14.5 inches long! Welcome to the last week of the second trimester! Baby brother has been getting the hiccups lately which is so sweet! I can see and feel his movements very well now. Even others can tell that he is doing a somersault in there when they watch my belly contort […]
