So What Wednesday

So What Wednesday
 
This week, I'm saying so what if...
  • I keep blowing up my Facebook page and blog with Vote for Ashlyn!!!!!.  If she wins, she gets some scholarship money.  So VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Baby Girl turned 9 months old on Sunday and I still haven't written her 9 month post yet.  I have to find the time first.
  • Baby Girl was supposed to have a shot-free 9 month check up but Daddy made her get the flu shot.  I know we want a healthy girl but seriously?!
  • Even Baby Girl's doctor said it's time for a brother.  Pile on the baby fever!
  • I still haven't completely unpacked from our Labor Day weekend away.  
  • I haven't felt 'well' since we came back from that weekend with food poisoning.  It's certainly helped me cut back on my food portions.
  • Next Tuesday is my second wedding anniversary and I have no idea what to get my husband.  Traditional gift is cotton.  Um?  Underwear?
  • I really want to re-design my blog and I just don't have the time!
  • I am continuing the countdown for Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2.  65 days to go. I am RIDICULOUSLY excited (and sad because I know the saga is ending).


What are you saying so what to this week?
Go link up with Shannon at Life After I Dew!


And don't forget to Vote for Ashlyn!!!!!

17 Tips - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin

17 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin Even when you're still trying to conceive, it's smart to start taking prenatal vitamins. Your baby's neural cord, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, develops within the first month of pregnancy, so it's important you get essential nutrients, like folic acid, calcium, and iron, from the very start. Prenatal vitamins are available over the counter at most drug stores, or you can get them by prescription from your doctor. If taking them makes you feel queasy, try taking them at night or with a light snack. Chewing gum or sucking on hard candy afterward can help, too. It took me a little while to get into the habit of taking my prenatal vitamin. I wasn't used to taking anything daily since I had been off the pill for a few months. I finally got myself in the habit of taking it every morning. I just take an over the counter vitamin. It has the same nutrients as a doctor prescribed vitamin but is less hass...

HFMD

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash. ( http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html) Are you kidding me? Blister-like sores in the mouth? Why do things like this even exist? What purpose does an illness like this that just torments little babies (and their parents) serve?  This stupid illness is currently 'running it's course' through my poor son. One week before his first birthday. Apparently it's 'going around' as the doctor so nicely explained.  Fortunately we only had one really bad day where he was not eating or drinking much and was just miserable. He was back to his usually happy self in no time even with blisters in his mouth. So this week, while my husband is away for work in Chicago and ...

29 Week Bumpdate

The heart rate today was 160 and all is well. Little Man is still kicking away all the time!  He sleeps until late morning and then he's all over the place for the rest of the day.  It's fun but it's also uncomfortable sometimes. When I weighed myself on Sunday, which is when I usually do it to update my pregnancy app, I was only up 15lbs.  As of today, though, I am up 17lbs.  I feel like I am growing at warp speed but the doctor assures me that I am measuring just fine.  I do feel like some of the shirts I wore two weeks ago shouldn't be worn anymore though!  The bump is growing! I have noticed that I have been waking up with swollen ankles every morning despite sleeping with them elevated.  I know this has a lot to do with the weight gain since I had such a problem with it last time.  Other than that, the normal heartburn and backaches come and go and I'm crazy tired but I don't really have any other issues.  I don't ever ...
