Fall is finally here! (Even if it’s hotter than hell)
EDD / Weeks + Days: January 14th!
FTM/STM/TTM+: first time mom!
Baby is the size of a (an): endive!
Team blue/pink/green: Blue!
Upcoming Appointments: October 2-baby in the 94th percentile for the first anatomy scan so we will have another!
How are you feeling?: not gonna lie I’m super excited for this baby but I absolutely hate pregnancy. Heartburn, sore back, sore pelvis, exhausted
Rants/Raves: so tired of people telling me how I’m going to be. If I have one more male coworker tell me I will become the pillsbury dough boy of softness and gentleness and waddle and will become a softy because their wife did, or if I have one more female tell me that I shouldn’t be embarrassed and it’s a okay if every person in the hospital looks at my vagina because I won’t care I’m gonna have a stroke. I can’t stand the “everyone knows more than I” stage. “You shouldn’t eat that, it’s not organic” Not something I was ever prepared for. And I’m not here for it lol
Questions: anyone else struggling to sleep/stay asleep?
Feeling: lots of heartburn this weekend, hip pain starting, expanding rapidly, belly popping out but haven't confirmed to coworkers yet to try to enjoy my pregnancy peace bubble as long as possible
Baby def feeling heavier, harder to find a position to sleep in
Upcoming Appointments: Had our anatomy scan last week but baby boy would not sit still and turn enough for heart pictures so back we go for that, also midwife appointment on Wednesday, Prenatal Chiro appointment Wednesday and my husband and I have an intake meeting at a nurse practioners clinic on Thursday (I swear my weeks aren't usually this busy)
How are you feeling?: Fantastic in the mornings; tired by mid afternoon
Rants: Still want to throat punch people with the Just wait (insert negative story), my MIL refusing to just buy the stroller I want (its a nice Graco travel system for $800 and she wants to spend $1400.. why ill take the extra $600 and get everything else on my registry! I know she means well and I love her for it but i am just not materialistic/designer like she is.)
Questions: Has anyone gotten into making baby spotofy Playlists... specifically listening to Hip-Hop lullabies.. I don't know why but they bring me so much joy!
