Maternity Clothes:
All pants maternity, and some shirts and things are starting to not fit anymore. A couple of days ago, I went to Motherhood Maternity after work (thinking that our maternity pictures were this weekend) to get a few more basics! I picked up a few basic long sleeve knits and a dress and some leggings! I now feel like I can wear more than 2 maternity outfits! Woopiee!!! AND I wanted to get some cute things for our maternity pictures that we have scheduled this weekend!

Movement:
Same as before…She is moving around like crazy! The last few days, the movements have become less of a swift kick or punch but I will be laying down and I can actually feel her squirming around. It is the weirdest thing. To all of you ladies that have not felt this…the best way I can describe it is like a worm or something wiggling under a sheet. WEIRD.

Sleep:
Pretty good thus far, I am just waiting for that to change however.

What I miss:
Laying on my stomach…a lot. Having a glass of a wine. I miss those things.
Cravings:
Nothing super crazy…I was craving a Chipotle burrito something fierce last night…but I just had eaten dinner and did not feel right going and purchasing 2 dinners…even though I felt like I Needed that burrito in my soul.

Symptoms:
Just the kicking of this little one..and the squirms, and having to go pee every 30 seconds.

Favorite Moment This Week:
I had our first doctors appointment where I have to start going every 2 weeks. It feels surreal because even though May seems far away, I know it will be here before we know it. And these appointments every 2 weeks makes me feel like im in the home stretch! Crazy! I am so excited for our baby showers coming up and I just received the invites for 2 of my showers this week! CANNOT WAIT!!
Worst Moment This Week:
I am so freaked out about our glucose test coming up within the next week. From looking at the internet, it appears as though every doctors office is different about how they go about the glucose test. Some doctors offices will do 1 blood draw when you get there, give you a sugar drink and then take 1 more blood draw after about an hour. Of course, my doctors office, will give you a blood draw when you get there, give you the glucose drink, take your blood after an hour, and then go another and give you another one. A total of 2 blood draws and a 3.5 hour test!!! I am so nervous, I don’t have it in me to do this….Remember my first blood draw for this adventure?? I will imagine it is that times like….1000. I know I am being a baby….but whatever. Its my baby and I will cry if I want to? Doesn’t apply? Whatevs.
Holy s-word. 2 blood draws?! No thanks. I think when I get knocked up I'm just gonna tell them that everything feels fine; no needles needed. Ha.
ReplyDeleteRIGHT?! Actually a total of 3 blood draws tomorrow. I asked Tim if I could just tell them that everthing was fine, and that tell them maybe we already did the test? Just at a doctors office where they don't keep records... He didn't seem to think that was a good idea. Rude.
