30 week BabyBump!

 I missed last week.. oops! I'm pretty sure I'm only posting because I'm extremely excited to be 30 weeks. The 30 week mark is a date I have had dreams about. In the first trimester I remember yearning to be at the 30 week mark because it's so close to the actual due date! Now I'm here and it's like: Now what?... Now I'm going to wait 7-10 more weeks that will probably appear to fly by and I'll be a mom in that short amount of time.
I feel like  I'm starving. I'm so hungry I could eat everything in the kitchen. All I ate was 2 waffles today :( My stomach is just screaming for food. I'm going to wait to eat because I'm craving pizza hut! My husband better not go over anybodies house after work or it's going to be on. I will slap him in his face. No joke lol. I'm that hungry right now and I'm just hoping he'll call and go by there so I can get my stuffed crust, extra cheese pizza.. and maybe alfredo pasta to go with it ;) My tummy is not that big. It's growing but compared to some of these other pregnant women I see- my stomach is small.Some women are HUGE around this time. Mine is more like a little basketball. Look at my little basketball!

In other pregnancy news: my next appointment is feb 6th. I don't feel like going but oh well. I had a gestational diabetes aappointment on the 31st but lost my order form so I had to reschedule that. I'm dreading that 1 hour test.. I already know I'm going to be really hungry.

                                          Happy  Anniversary?

My wedding anniversary is tomorrow. We're not doing anything special though which kinda upsets me. Being pregnant makes celebrating a little less fun. I'll elaborate tomorrow. As of now, are plans are to go to his moms house and have dinner. Spending time with any of our parents is not my idea of a great anniversary... but I think we'll make the best out of it. On the upside: At least I know our anniversaries are as important to him as they are to me.

Symptoms I experience seem pretty normal.. Short of breath sometimes and the bones in my hands hurt from time to time ( I don't know what's up with that). When I sleep, I have to toss and turn throughout the night because my butt cheek becomes intensely painful! ... Again, I don't know what's up with that but I probably turn over 100 times throughout the night.


My baby shower is now 2 weeks away. Me and my mom have gotten into some really intense arguments over stupid stuff like decorations... I'm just laying low because apparently I'm not aloud to have too much of an opinion about my own shower. It's okay though- I love her & the fact that she's throwing this big party for me.

Until next time.

babyBump: 22 week!

 Stopping in late to post my 22 week baby bump.
Week 22 will be over on Saturday! It drives me nuts that I get to 22 weeks and before a day goes by I'm saying "I can't wait til I'm 23 weeks" .. I'm just counting down the days til I reach that next week! Today I had an ultrasound appointment. I was able to see my precious bundle of joy, but it seems like she did not want to be seen. She was facing my back the entire ultrasound which I didn't expect because she's always active.. How is my little stinker gonna be sleeping when I expected her to be bouncing and hyper. Baby Addison would not budge even after taking a trip to the bathroom and turning around on the exam table. She even covered her face while the sonographer poked and prodded my side trying to catch a glimpse of her profile. Although she was not cooperating, it was fine with me because I find everything she does incredibly adorable.
We were able to catch her touching her feet, crossing her ankles and three perfect 3D/4D face shots. She has A LOT more facial fat than she did at 17 weeks. At my 17 week private scan, her face was basically skin and bones and it looked very skeletal. Now her face had a lot more fullness and she just looked like a full grown baby. I know she has a lot of growing to do. She's only 1 lb and a couple ounces so I think she's gonna end up with fat fluffy cheeks just like her mommy.
I love my baby so much! Can never say it too much, can never comprehend the amount of love I feel for her. It's truly amazing and I am really thankful to God
***
Sleep: Fine, I wake up like once or twice to pee at night which is insane. Sometimes my butt hurts SO badly. I only lay on my sides so one butt cheek/hip  will start to hurt, ill roll over on the other side. It's not as easy rolling over anymore. My ass is hurting so bad right now as I type this lol.
Best moments this week: My ultrasound and eating.. Eating is fun.
Food cravings: Spare ribs and chinese food, long john silvers fish. 
Symptoms: Painful hips/buttcheek when sleeping on my side, Lower abdomen pain..feels like round ligament pain, Stiffness in back and body.
Belly button: still in.
What I miss: being carefree. I could smoke or drink and just get loose and party whenever I wanted. I miss that because sometimes you just want to get loose lol. That will be plenty months from now though. Even after the baby comes I won't be partying anytime soon. I also miss sex. I'm not as into it as I once was. I could go like the rest of my pregnancy without having sex.
Looking foward to: January when we get her nursery together and buy all of her stuff and my private ultrasound that I'm scheduling between 26-30 weeks.

                                                         

Baby Bump Post: 20 weeks

I am starting the weekly pregnancy post at 20 weeks. I was truly bumming it in this picture. My shorts were not buckled (time for more maternity shopping)  I'm finally getting big growth which I'm excited about. My stomach is poking out and there is no mistaking this bump for a pudge. My boobs are huge, I thought they were big at 10 weeks pregnant but now they are double that size.


I FEEL fine No morning sickness. Not very tired. At times I feel overly emotional. I feel hungry ( my mouth will water if I am hungry & thinking of food and that is just not normal for me). I don't feel sexy with this belly. Sad.
My baby girl is kicking  multiple times per day. I absolutely can't wait until April! Baby is apparently the size of a canteloupe and  around 10 inches from head to toe.
Goals: I would love to start a small workout, I have been meaning to start for weeks but I've been to busy eating! I think working out is important during pregnancy because things are falling due to gravity. I'd love to tone my arms, legs and butt before baby comes.

That's it for BBP 20!


Make sure to stop by and say hi.
