So What Wednesday




So What Wednesday
This week, I'm saying so what if...
  • I am 39 weeks pregnant today. Isn't it over yet?
  • I never posted my Bumpdate last week. I will do one today.
  • I have woken up way too early the past few days. Heartburn and headaches have taken over my life. Oh and hunger.
  • I was very disappointed when I bought the wrong cupcakes this week. I didn't realize it until I got home. I will still eat them.
  • I'm so tired of being stared at. Seriously...it's like people have never seen a pregnant woman before!
  • I'm slightly jealous of all the bloggers who have just recently had their babies....mainly because I'm so tired of being pregnant! Congrats to them, though!
  • Baby Girl has been so sweet lately but she has been fighting me on naps and bed time. Kid doesn't want to miss anything.
  • Baby Girl has developed this adorable little smile that gets her pretty much whatever she wants. She tilts her head, scrunches her nose and smiles. It's priceless.
  • All Baby Girl wants to watch lately is Rio. Cute movie but all I can think about when I watch it is how the bird thief is the yoga guy from Couples Retreat. Boom!

    Visiting from SWW! Hopefully it is not too much longer before you meet your baby boy! You're almost there! What kind of cupcakes did you want? I have been wanting to buy some cupcake recently but the one place is always closed when I am out and about!

    Rio - I can only take that movie so many times. But when my daughter "comes at me like a love hawk" I die! Hope it becomes baby time soon!

    I'm jealous of all the new babies too and I have till December. :o) My kid has been fighting me on naps lately too. I'm over it! BUT thankfully I can leave her in her crib for 2 hours so I get somewhat of a break. I just have to listen to her talk/play/say 'oh no' for those 2 hours.

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 ...
