pregnancy & text buddy- aug 2010

haha! i bet that is a real task trying to put socks on. luckily i live in a tropical climate and i never wear socks. all of my shoes, even my dress shoes, are slip on style with no socks needed. lol. i have decided that summertime is going to call for a lot of dresses and flip flops. im going to be so hot anyway, and with dresses you dont have to bend over to put them on like you do with shorts and pants

i know i have been in school forever! i think it will be a little bit of a shock at firat, not having school to worry about and not having homework. but i think ill get used to it quickly. plus the baby will be here shortly after and then ill not even have time to think about anything else at all! the ultrasound is the next appointment i have, next week thursday. and apparently its not with my doctor, its in a different clinic in the hospital with someone completely different. and then i have another appointment with the doctor at 24 weeks. then one at 28 and 32. and after that they start to come a lot closer together...every 2 weeks until i hit 37 and then every week. ahhh...its all coming so fast!

oh i cant imagine not having a/c. now i can see why it might be nice to be at your FILs place, even if that does mean you have to deal with his gf! its been really warm here too and i dread getting into the hot car or really going anywhere without a/c. im already getting much hotter than normal.

that is still pretty crazy to think that youve been pregnant longer than half the term of pregnancy. and 3.5 month sounds like nothing when you put it that way! it is definitely gonna be here before you know it!

yea i think the babies grow pretty standard in the beginning and their growth changes towards the end depending on the woman and the baby. im so hoping that i dont have some huge baby. my stepson was right around 7 lbs. that sounds manageable...im scared for some like 9lb baby or something. mostly just cause it seems it would hurt more. but i guess big babies typically mean healthy babies, so if it is a big baby it will be okay

i keep seeing pregnant women all around or women with brand new babies...it seems like it is really the baby season lately!

haha you are so lucky that you dont have to wear socks i wish it were the same way for me.. but i get blisters if i dont wear socks in my shoes and stuff plus if i dont wear socks in my sneakers it makes my feet smell bad haha.. Thats why im wearing dresses and stuff too because i know that im having a hard time now but once i get into the last couple of months its going to get really bad.. ahh thats goina suck lol i cant even imagin how hard its going to be to do stuff like that at 35+ weeks thats crazy.. i cant wait thou becaus that just means its getting close to having baby time

Haha i think you will get used to the no home work thing pretty quick it will be more like a relief to not have to worry about school homework and everything when you have your new baby its better than trying to finish while having your baby with you i wouldnt be able to do that wow you must be getting excited at how close your ultra-sound is geting for when you finally get to see baby you have been waiting for such a long time.. i know its going to be crazy going to the doctors every couple of weeks like that and than after like 37 weeks its once a week and stuff its going to be crazy im totally goina be sick of going to the hospital after this.

I know it will be good to be at my FIL's even thou i have to deal with his gf just because i cant handle being in places that arent air conditioned i have to be cool i get heat flashes and everything now.. boo lol

It is crazy to think im over half way now and it does seem to be pickin up speed now at an alarming rate haha

My next door neighbour from when i was little had a baby that was 10 pounds i was like omg how could u push out a 10 pound baby lol.. but my doctor said if i was average size chances are im going to have an average size baby so im just hoping that that comes true i dont want to have to be giving birth to something that is 10 pounds or what ever i wouldnt be able to handle that i dont think.. i think every baby grows at its own rates and stuff from 24 weeks it makes since.

It does seem like its really baby season.. its crazy how many new babies are coming into the world and stuff now i cant believe it..

 

[QueSeraSera]

yea i couldnt imagine wearing tennis shoes everyday and having to wear socks...ive lived in hawaii too long and have gotten so used to getting to wear open toed shoes all the time but i think youre right, we have to figure out every possible way to make things easier because by the time we are at 30+ weeks everything is going to be so hard! lol. my mom just booked a ticket for me to go visit at the end of june. when i leave i will have just turned 28 weeks and when i come back ill be like 3 days shy of 30 weeks. its going to be fun cause were spending like 4 days at their home in las vegas and then 3 in denver, colorado to see my moms family and then 3 in wyoming to see my dads family cause there are a lot that cant come out in may. but i already warned her that we have to take it a little slow as im sure ill be huge by then and not moving as fast as normal! usually when i go to vegas we walk everywhere, but she said in my condition we will take the tram and taxis instead. lol

ive noticed im already starting to forget about homework and im not even done with school yet. after i passed my final defense, its hard to make myself do anything more for classes. i feel like i should be done already! but once it is everything is going to start going so fast! first with my family coming in may and then me going back in june. and then itll be the time when im going to the doctors frequently. and then the baby will be here! ahhh i cant wait.

i dont blame you! i couldnt do without a/c right now. im usually a cold person but lately im always hot. i thought it wasnt supposed to happen til later on. man...this is going to be one uncomfortable summer i can already tell! :-/

my nephew was 10.5oz when both his mom and my brother were normal 8lb babies...so i think youre right, every baby grows at its own pace. but im hoping your doctors logic was right because i was only 5.5lbs and DH was around 7lbs...so if youre doctor is correct we should be having a manageably sized baby haha. guess we will jsut have to wait and see! lol

im so excited to be 19 weeks and only 6 days away from the ultrasound! baby is the size of a mango this week...and when i read that yesterday i started craving mangoes. lol.

 

[dizzy65]

I didnt think things were supposed to be this complicated at 21 weeks but my mom looked at me today and said "wow in the past 2 weeks you sure have gotten bigger!" i looked at her and said "really i havent really noticed" lol so i guess i am getting bigger by the minute here!! haha.. and when my mom and i went out for a walk to get the mail earlier we met up with my dad's friend and his son and they were both like "wow you are getting big" and i was thinking to my self "i really wish people would stop refering to me as big" haha .. But i guess i look healthy thats all that matters.. my mom says im lucky because my bump is lower down where is hers went pretty much up to her breats and stuff.. I dont no whatthey say a lower bump is boy or girl.. But it doesnt matter lol.. Every one notices im pregnant now.. crazy... didnt think this would happen for a long time. Thats going to be a great trip for you souns really busy too but it will be lots of fun and a very uncomfy plane ride

Haha oh ya i bet.. i would be the same.. its like well ive already passed the one thing so whats the point in doing the rest haha.. You'lol do great thou It will all go by really fast once you think about it.. thats like what ive been thinking that it seems so far away but also that starting may im going to be really so busy that im not even goina notice the rest of this pregnancy.. Haha im also really excited for july to go and watch eclipse This summer is pretty booked up for me thou im goina be very busy with everything thats happening.. and in may my grandma is coming up for a quick visit.. just 4 days.

I know what you mean.. that if i cant handle the heat now i dont think i will ever be able to handle the heat this summer i mean im noticing the heat so much worse right now.. ahh

lol i hope the doctor is right because i was only 7lb 6oz and OH was 8lb so i really hope that the baby isnt very big. lol that would really suck i dont think icould manage giving birth to a 10lb baby that would be horrid..

Congrats on hitting your 19 week mark that is amazing i cant believe you already almost half way.. and in 6 days you will get to see your beautiful baby that is so amazing.. wow the size of a mango thats getting pretty big

Okay ive totally lost my marbles in this pregnancy lol I have a new pregnancy symptom which is really embaressing.. Im finding guess in Uniform like super hot.. There was cops over here last night for my next door neighbour and i found my self like drooling over him and flirting with him like a school girl haha i was like "oh gosh what is happening to me" and my OH is a volenteer fire fighter and when he is in his uniform im like all over him, which i never am like that in public.. haha wow this pregnancy has totally made me crazy i tell ya

 

[QueSeraSera]

i know! the need to come up with a different way of saying that were growing without saying that were "big." i hate that! lol. the other day i came home from work and DH was in the back so i walked into the bedroom and he was like "whoa! where did that bump come from?!" he said it seemed like i had gotten much bigger even from that morning. needless to say it didnt make me feel very good! lol. i was talking to one of my friends who has a seven year old and was complaining about how big im getting and she was like "just wait until later on towards the end when the baby is gaining like 1/2 pound a week" i cant even imagine that! eeek! :-/ i think i am carrying prettyhigh... the top of my bump is pretty much touching the bottom of my bra. it makes its feel like it is so in your face right there all the time. i think low is a boy and high is a girl...but i cant remember. those old wives tales are rarely right anyway. lol. oh dodnt even remind me of the plane ride..its going to suck. i even made sure i got a layover on the flight so i can get off the plane an walk around a bit and have some space.

oh that will be so cool if your grandma can come visit, even if it is just for a few days. i bet she would be so excited to see you all big and pregnant too. our summers are going to be crazy. hopefully we are so busy the whole time that we wont even notice how hot we are! hehe. okay, i doubt that will happen, but a girl can dream right?

yea i think that a lot of women that have babies that big end up having c-sections, but my brothers ex-wife gave birth naturally. she was such a tropper. she never screamed or cried out the whole time and she was in labor for over 12 hours. i hope that i can tolerate the pain of childbirth as well as she did!

thank you! i am so excited for the next 6 days to just fly by so that we can go to the ultrasound! im sure they will feel like theyre dragging on, but i hope not! i want to see my baby and get my pictures and go buy a little pink or blue outfit already!

haha. they say that some women have an elevated sex drive during pregnancy. maybe thats what youre experiencing! or just now realizing how hot men in uniform are! firemen are always a huge turn on. and just think of me...i live on a military base! its like uniform overload, lol. but ive always thought that DH looks so good all dressed up in his uniform ive definitely had the "can't get enough" symptom since the beginning of this pregnancy, not that i was much better before really. but im pretty sure i could jump DH at anytime of the day lately! :-/ sex is getting interesting though lately cause my belly gets in the way of some positions and im not nearly as flexible as before...guess its time for some experimentation! lol

 

[dizzy65]

it gets annoying when every one you see refers to you as getting big or having baby fat or what ever lol. It's like "gee thanks doesnt any one every use the term glowing or anything any more!" haha... Haha i know what you mean OH tells me everyday he is around me that im getting bigger and all that stuff. But usually i take it as "oh great so now im getting fat" haha OH doesn't like that too much he just says its baby growing and everything but still when you look at me and the first thing you can see is bump that kinda sucks in some ways but in other ways im glad that i have my bump thats good that you got on a flight that has a lay over.. i dont think id be able to sit comfortably for that long on a plane. they always say that you arent supposed to sit longer than 5 hours like going for a car ride or anything like that.. and i believe it for sure its hard for me to sit for 1/2 hour in a vehical! i hope its not too uncomfy for you.

Haha yep it will be good for her to come down.. esept last time i talked to her on the phone which was on my moms birthday she asked me if i was getting fat yet lol.. I hope that they go by so fast that we dont even notice how hot we are haha it will never happen but there is no harm in wishing for it

I think you are right i couldnt imagin pushing that out.. Wow thats crazy she actaully gave birth naturally too it? wow thats lucky. this guy we used to live with his brothers wife had a 10 pound baby and after like 48 hours in labour they finally relised she couldnt vaginally deliver it so she had to go in for a c-section.. In my oppinion they shoulda been able to figure that one out a little sooner!

You will get to see baby before you know it and than that day will come and go and, than you will be wishing tosee bubs again but it is great to have the pictures and stuff awe thats right you get to find out thesex yay you

I always think OH looks all sexy dressed up in any uniform he has ever wore haha.. but i usually dont think other men look hot and stuff but now its like oh, my, goodness lol... I know what you mean about the sex thing and some times it gets uncomfortable like not laying on back and stuff like that, i guess it just leaves lots of room to experiment with differant ones haha.. I think itsonly goina get worse as time goes on thou as the tummy we be way bigger and stuff is just goina get way more complicated.. Im no where near as flexable neither.. It kind of sucks.. I dont know what im experiancing but i wish it would stop i hate drooling over guys like that lol... Oh ya you live there so you see lots guys in uniform lol lucky you

 

[QueSeraSera]

hehe! i agree completely! we need to resurrect the use of "glowing" to describe pregnant women! its much better than "big." i know it means that the baby is healthy and has a nice home in there, but i dont like to be reminded of it all the time! yea i really needed to get a flight with a layover because the flight to los angeles alone is 5.5 hours. and i know youre not supposed to travel longer than that. and plus i dont think my body will be able to take it without a little bit of a rest!

haha. my grandma is the same way..she is so frank and blunt about things and just speaks her mind. when we told her about the baby the first thing she asked was "was this planned?!" ahhh...old people...they have no internal filter about what they say sometimes. but you gotta love em anyway.

wow! what idiots! they should have figured out long before then that the baby wasnt gonna fit. being in labor that long too can put the mom and the baby in danger...thats pretty scary. good thing everything turned out alright. i really dont want to have a c-section, but if the baby is that big you can bet ill be telling them to cut me open! lol

yea i really cant wait. DH is convinced its a boy and that this isnt even needed to know the gender. lol. but im just excited to see my baby for the first time! it has been such a long wait. and to be honest, i dont care if its a boy or if its a girl...i just want to know that my little mango is healthy in there!

i wouldnt worry about the drooling over hot guys in uniforms...that natural. and its harmless. i mean, its not like youd ever do anything. its just a bit of looking! as far as the sex goes, just count this as an opportunity to find new exciting positions. or to get out of the ones you dont like so much. lol. like for me, DH really likes me being on top, but now i dont have to cause i tell him ill crush him with me being this big. he says im being silly, but i insist and it works and we move onto something else

 

[dizzy65]

"glowing" sound a lot nicer than "big" for sure lol. Iwish people would understand that lol... My OH told me when he was down here that im sure getting big and i was like "thanks so are you but im pregnant whats your excuse" haha and he just looked and me and was like "haha very funny" lol well to me it was funny.. if i have to be big like this it only makes me happier to be able to bug other people Wow thats going to be a really long flight.. lol.. i wouldnt be able to do it either with out giving my body some kind of rest sitting like that for that long when your that far along is going to be really hard.

Thats cute lol.. my grandma asked me the same thing too its like um i dont think we should really be having this convo lol. they just say whats on there mind some times it can be funny others not so much

I know thats so dumb of them they could have seriously hurt the baby or her any way trying to make her push something outthat wouldnt fit i mean really people get with the programm. i think if they were to tell me how big the baby was and that it wouldnt fit id tell them to cut me open too but i really want to avoid a c-section at any cost i really want to do this one naturally for sure.. Im scared that there will be some sort of complication thou making it so i have to get a c-section as my mom had to get a c-section done with both me and my sis.

Your DH sounds like my OH.. like they are convince its a boy no matter what i keep telling OH there is a chance that it can be a girl and he wont believe it haha it just doesnt want the responciblitiy of having a girl on his hands lol.. That is true the main thing is that it is well and healthy.

I do the same thing with OH too if im on top im like "this is too uncomfy or i think we should change because i feel like im going to crush you" lol OH thinks im crazy and stuff but it does work.. that is so true thou this just gives the opportunity to want to change to differant possitions and try new ones that we havent done before.. a great time for experiments

 

[QueSeraSera]

hehe. i love how you bug your OH back when he mentions something about my size. i think my mom is the only one who understands the whole not calling a pregnant woman big thing. ill always send her pictures and say "look how big the baby is now!" or something like that and she always writes back "oh you look so cute!" or "youre not that big at all!" bless her. shes a good liar the flight will probably be pretty crappy, but i think it will be worth it to see everyone. and then ill have a good 10 days there before i have to be cramped on the plane again. at first i was thinking about a 3 or 4 days trip, but that was just gonna be too much travel with not enough recovery time in between.

haha...yea the old ladies are too funny sometimes. my grandma sometimes says things that im just left thinking "did she really just say that?!" like, for example, when my neice was born and she said that was probably going to be her last grandkid. i was about 20 at the time and i said "what about me and chelsea (a cousin that is my same age)" and she said "no you two will never settle down and have kids, this is the last one ill see" i was just shocked. lol

yea i know sometimes you cant avoid c-sections, but i would really prefer not to have one. a friend of mine had to have one at the last minute because it turned out that the baby was breech. she said you kind of dont care at the time because all youre thinking about is the health of the baby, but that it was so much longer recovery time compared to her first baby.

that is so the case with my DH too. i always try to tell him its a 50-50 chance of a boy or a girl, but he insists that he can only have boys. and its just because he doesnt want to think about having to raise a girl and worry about her when she is older with like boys and things. i tell him hes silly, you have to worry about sons with girls too. ahhh..the boys can be so silly.

hehe...i kinda like using the pregnancy to get out of positions that arent exactly my favorite. and experimenting is always a bit of fun too!

 

[dizzy65]

hehe it is funny we always like to bug each other like that awe bless your mom lol i wish i had at least one person that was like that.. But Me and my dad were joking when im about 8 months pregnant that him and me are going to take a pic of our bellies to see who is bigger thats going to be a blast lol.. My dad he used to be so skinny but then he quit smoking and he gained lots of wait all in his tummy so it looks like he is pregnant too it is really funny. So that will be a lot of laughs when i hit 8months to do a pregnancy picture with my dad I know what you mean you need to have a lot of recovery time and 4 or 5 days wouldnt cut it.. its great thou you get 10 whole days that will be so fun for you it really sucks you have to travel by plane thou that would be soo uncomfy.

oh my nice grandma you got there lol.. My other grandma when i first got pregnant what she said was "no more boys i dont want any more grandsons" lol its like "uhm grandma i cant really control this sort of thing" lol its just that all of her great grandkids so far have been boys so she wants another granddaughter to spoil i guess lol but she will get what we give her i would be so shocked to if my grandma had said that too me too.. well look at ya now you totally showed her up hehe

Thats right in the moment all that matters is that baby is healthy and is going to survive the trip into the world If the baby is breach when im giving birth i will just tell them to cut me open probably i wouldnt even attempt to push out a breach baby that would be soo hard

My OH says that too that he is not capable of making any girls lol than he goes into the odds of makinga girl and stuff but i keep trying to tell him that there is always the possibility of making a girl and he wont have it lol.. Its funny because he said if its a girl he will need to get a shot gun to scare off her boyfriends that she may want to have and i said oh gosh i hope the baby is nothing like me than he said if the baby is like you i can actually see my self using the shot gun lol too funny

 

[QueSeraSera]

aww that will be so cute a pregnancy picture with your dad! hehe. thats too funny. i could probably do the same thing with my dad. he too used to be so thin but hes getting older now and he doesnt exercise as much and he now has a definitely little beer bump thats cool that you guys all joke with each other like that though...at least you know that when they say something about your belly you can just shoot a remark right back at them. yea the trip will be nice, but im sure the flight will be uncomfortable. oh well! itll be worth it to see the fam.

haha...yea my grandma is crazy sometimes. she never means to be rude, but sometimes the things she says are just like whoa. lol. thats pretty bad about your grandma not wanting any more boys...its not really like you can control that very well! oh granparents...they can be so out of line sometimes but you gotta love them anyway. i guess its their right after living so long to say anything they want...you can bet when im that old im gonna be saying whatever comes to my mind too! lol

yea i would imagine breech would be so much harder and more painful, not to mention that its dangerous for the baby too. its worth it at that point to just have the c-section i think. i wouldnt want to do anything to put my baby in harm, especially for something as silly as me just not wanting to have a c-section.

oh my DH is the same way...he tells me that he has to worry about a girl more, especially if it takes after me. i wont let DH get a shotgun though...too afraid hed use it on any boy that looked at his daughter wrong. he always says he cant have girls, but i know that its just him being silly. if it is a girl he is going to be so over the moon about her it wont even be funny, i can already tell.

 

[dizzy65]

it is great to be able to joke like that with people and for them to not take it so seriously i would hate to live with people who couldnt take a joke like that lol awe your dad has a little beer belly haha.. my dad doesnt even drink and he has a beer belly haha i wonder what happened there Ah i did the funniest thing to OH today while we were text messaging, it started with him saying he didnt want me to go to the bar with him because it wasnt fair to be around alcohol in my situation and then i said "well you just dont want to be seen with me" and he said "thats not true" than iwas like "yes it is you dont want people to see you with some one whos fat" and than he was like " thats not true i tell everyone your pregnant" and i was like "mhm sure your just embarssed of me" and than he said "thats not true i promis!!" all the while i was laughing at this argument and OH actaully thought i was serious threw the whole thing ah i love being pregnant some days haha

Lol yep most defantly be saying what ever is on the mind lol its like sometimes there brain doesnt work properly so they say what ever they feel like saying and some times it leaves me like "what did you just say"

ya really.. I wouldnt want to harm the baby just because i was a little bit scared to do the c-section if circumstances call for it i will defantly be willing thats for sure its just kinda like a last resort kind of thing

I think OH will be the same too if it is a girl he'll be totally happy and be a total freak controlling dad but it will be okay he will be happy over what ever it is he wont be disapointed either way i dont want OH to get a shot gun either because im afraid he might actaully want to use it haha

 

[QueSeraSera]

haha! thats so great about text messages because nobody can tell if youre being serious or if youre joking. and because youre pregnant you can get away with saying things like that too. i bet he was freaking out on the other end that he had upset you and the whole time you were having a bit of a laugh.

yea the grandparents can be crazy, but i guess its their right since theyve spent so many years raising families!

oh i definitely agree about the c-section. it is most definitely a last resort for me too. i really dont want one. but if it comes to the point where its necessary then i will be all for it.

yea i think our OHs are really alike on the whole having a girl thing. but i agree...a shotgun is gonna be a big no-no just incase they do decide it should be used at some point! lol

 

[dizzy65]

haha I confessed to him when he called me tonight i was like "i was only kidding" than he got upset but laughed to because he actaully thought i had gone all pissy on him.. but it was great fun Its days like these that i love being pregnant I dont no how much more of this OH can take thou my poor guy haha.. I think now its funny because everything he says i turn into him calling me fat haha

yep that is so true grandparents have ever right to be crazy and say whats on there mind haha

Thats for sure.. if worse comes to worse i know there is the c-section to fall back on i am keeping good thoughts thou that nothing is going to go wrong i hope that all goes well

haha ya no kidding i wouldnt want the shot gun to actually be used lol

 

[QueSeraSera]

awww thats good that you confessed about your little joke on him...that way he doesnt think youve gone absolutely mad on him! lol. luckily my DH has finally learned and has stopped saying anything about how big my tummy is getting. now he just asks how the little ones "home" is doing. that way we avoid me thinking hes calling me fat!

i think thats the best course of ction for us at this stage...not to worry about c-sections or anything like that at all...and just hope for the best possible labor a person can have! lol

i cant believe youre almost 22 weeks now! that is so crazy. and im only 3 days away from the ultrasound! gosh im so excited. i think DH is getting pretty excited too. last night he asked if i could move my appointment up to today. i told him it was hard enough to get the one on thursday and that is just gonna have to do! but its seriously like im 4 and waiting for christmas morning right now....soooo hard! lol

 

[dizzy65]

haha yeah, he was relieved when i finally confessed.. that is good that you guys have a nother way of saying it other than making you think he is calling you fat lol

thats right just be hopin that the best is goina happen instead of thinking the worst is going to happen lol

I know i cant believe it either it seems like just yesterday that i was saying to you i was excited to be like 10 weeks and now look at it .. very cool hehe.. wow only 3 days away i bet you are really excited for that i know i was for the first time i ever got to see baby it made everything so much more real to actaully see the baby on the screen there.. It feels like it hay i count down to the day you see bubs its like your own special christmas totally like a 4 year old counting down the days tell christmas or something lol. is it just gong to be u and DH going or are you inviting your step son to go as well?

 

[QueSeraSera]

exactly! i was getting pretty tired of how "big the baby is getting" cause i know that by extension that means im getting big too! lol

it really seems like the time has flown by. maybe not at the time, when it seemed to be going so slow, but now after looking back i cant believe its almost halfway done! i am seriously counting down the hours until the ultrasound and i cannot get here fast enough! i feel like ive been waiting forever to see the little one, and i just want to have my pictures already! lol. i thought it would be really cool to have my stepson there to see his little baby brother or sister, but for some reason they dont allow anyone under the age of 10 to the scans. im not exactly sure why...maybe just because theyre distracting or something. so we will just have to show him the pictures once we get done and everything.

 

[dizzy65]

lol that is so true. Its the nice way of saying "you are getting fat" haha today i was talking to Jason on the phone and he said im not getting fat im getting fluffy lol if i wasnt supposed to be watching my temper i woulda let him have it haha

ah that is so cute lol. that is really odd that they dont let people under 10 in the room but makes since too because they dont want them to be too loud or dont want them screwing with stuff as most kids will.. well at least you will get a picture to show your step son of his little sibbling

 

[QueSeraSera]

fluffy!? thats possible worse than saying fat! lol. oh boys...they just dont understand do they? thats cool though that youre trying to watch youre pregnancy temper, for me...im just letting it rage. seems like if anything bothers me these days i just let someone have it. its strange, cause im not usually like that at all. lol. kinda nice to be able to get away with it because were pregnant though!

yea i think maybe the no kids under 10 things is because they will act out. and it could also be because they mom will be disracted by other young chidren in the room and not able to focus and everything. young kids are so needy sometimes and so they could be wanting to be held or something, and then if they do get what they want they cry. so i guess its better not to have them in there. but it will be really good to let him see the pictures. hes getting really excited about the baby. he always pats my tummy and says "theres a baby in there?" and usually asks why the baby can't come out to play yet. hehe. this weekend i told him that this week we were going to find out if hes having a baby brother or a baby sister, and he replied "oh shaman...im having a baby brother! brothers are fun to play with!" haha...looks like he already has his mind made up about what he wants the baby to be!

youre 22 weeks today! congratulations! only 18 more to go now...that doesnt seem so far off at all anymore. i love the funny little saying on your ticker about the mood swings...too true for pregnant women! now only a couple more weeks to go before youre viable. doing anything special to celebrate 22 weeks?

 

[dizzy65]

I have to watch my temper and all that right now.. I have high blood pressure so the doctor said im supposed to be watching what i do and eat a lot more better until its under control.. ive been really stressed out with FOB right now.. like We arent really even together right now so we are going to try and work it out maybe when he gets home.. They sudjested to get some one to talk to but im really not comfortable with sharing all this with some stranger.. and i cant really talk to FOB's dad about it either. So it kind of sucks that i have to be going threw all of this while pregnant.. she said basically not to do anything to stress my self to badly, relaxing, warm baths.. all of that but if they cant get this stress and high blood pressure under control they have to get me on pregnancy aproved pills so it doesnt harm babes..

Thats too cute that he already has his mind made up what gender he wants the baby to be lol.. like father like son i guess they both want boys im sure that a girl would be just as fun to play with a bug and all of that Wow its getting so close now to finding out the sex of your baby it must be really exciting for you seeing baby and finding out the sex all in one day.. big day hehe. Doctors probably want as little distractions in the room as possibal so they can get all of the measurements and such that they need to get.. the measurement part of the ultra-sound took for me like 45 minutes.. and thats hard when you really have to pee laying down on your back like that dont help at all haha..

Thanks im so happy to be 22 weeks only 2 more weeks and ill be viable that is so exciting.. no there wont be any plans for today just laundry which i probably shouldnt even be doing but i will do any way lol.. I know only 18 more weeks until baby is due that is soo exciting it doesnt seem very long now.. especially since im over half way now.. and im just about down to 99 days i cant wait tell than there seems to be so many mile stones just down the road
