So What Wednesday

So What Wednesday
This week, I'm saying so what if...
  • I'm starting to feel like a whale.  This little man seems to be growing at warp speed now.
  • I'm not excited about getting on the scale at my doctor's appointment tomorrow.
  • I am in my third trimester and am more tired and crabby than ever.
  • My husband got his Father's Day gift early because he bought himself some cigars for my birthday and had a bunch leftover.  I got him a humidor.
  • My birthday party was pretty awesome.
  • I am in love with my new Coach purse and it might just be my favorite so far.

  • I finally got my Mom's last Origami Owl charm in the mail this week.  If you remember, that was her Mother's Day gift.
  • I have a funeral go to go to Friday so you may not hear from me until next week.
  • I'm sick of eating sandwiches but we had so much lunch meat leftover from the deli trays we got on my birthday and we don't like to waste food.
  • We had our 3D ultrasound this past weekend and Little Man was not cooperating.  It may or may not have had something to do with the orange juice I drank before we went.  Oh well.  We did determine that he is a boy and that he has hair like his sister.  Free re-scan in two weeks.

      Thanks! It feels so far away but I know he will be here before I know it and I know I will miss his kicks when they are gone!

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 ...
