25 Week Pregnancy Update

Well, I made it to 25 weeks!
Time seemed to slow down for the second trimester. I'm not ready to have two babies but I'm sure ready to meet this little one!

I finally got the crib put up in Jamyson's room so we have 2 cribs and 1 changing table. I moved the dresser into the closet to give us a little bit more room.

How I'm feeling....

Weight Gain: Well, I've gained 27 lbs. Seems like a lot since I only gained 34 total with my first two pregnancies.
I'm not sure why I've gained so much weight with this one.

Exercise: I walk about 4 miles a day. So, if I wasn't walking as much as I am, I probably would've gained more weight!

Cravings/Diet: I love frozen fruit! Probably because it's nearing summertime. I have not been craving ice-cream like I did with my second pregnancy. Although, I sure won't pass it up. Honestly, turkey and cheese sandwiches are what I usually want. However, I try to incorporate a salad or smoothie if I can. I've also been wanting a ton of string cheese. I think I like the salt from it.

Morning Sickness: I don't have morning sickness anymore but occasionally I will get waves of just feeling "blah". That's usually when I eat something, which has probably caused me to gain more weight. I still take 2 diclegis pills at night because I find when I don't take them, I feel even more lousy during the day. And, I think they help me sleep better at night.

Sleep: I sleep fine at night. When I take a nap during the day, my nose usually gets really stuffy or I have weird dreams that keep waking me up. It's almost not worth taking a nap. I usually lay down while Jamyson is napping and watch Gilmore Girls. That's still my go to show.

Concerns: I switched doctors halfway through this pregnancy in order to try for a VBAC. The doctor I'm going to is one of two in the DFW metroplex that specialize in VBAC. I've also hired a doula which is suppose to help your chance of success. Here's praying I finally get my VBAC after 2 C-sections.




That's all for now

27 Weeks Pregnancy Update

27 weeks today. Is this the third trimester or not?!? Some websites say it is, some says 28 is. So, I'm not too sure. Weight Gain:  33.3 lbs total. Only half a pound of away from what I gained with Jamyson and I still have 13 weeks left (waaaahhhh.....) I feel huge. I am huge! It's harder to walk and my feet hurt now, lol. Exercise:  I'm still walking but I cut back last week and only did 14.7 miles. I broke the 200 miles for the year for the "run the year 2017"! However, the more I walk, the more I eat and the more weight I gain (eek)! Cravings/Diet:  I've been craving lemon lime gatorade. Weird right?! It's delicious. I've also been getting reece's blasts from Sonic. They are so good! I threw in a cooke dough blizzard from dairy queen. That was delicious and not helping with my weight gain. Morning Sickness: Still no morning sickness but I'm still taking 2 diclegis every night. Sleep:  Didn't nap as much last week. Just didn...

I hate Mondays!!!!!

Friday night I went to see Highschool musical with Bri. It was a great movie, the best of the high school trilogy by far! Definately made for the big screen. It was about the high school musical cast's senior year. So, it reminded me of when I was in highschool and everyone says, "You have the power to become whatever you want to become... ... Then, you start to think... I want to change the world... I will be 26 in one month and I have realized that when someone tells you that you can be anything you want to be, it is not necessarily true. I do agree that people create their own destiny and are forced to turn any situation into a good one BUT my life turned out nothing like I imagined it. Last night, Bri said she wished that her whole family lived together in the same house and then she started crying. I told her I was sorry she felt that way and that I understood because I used to want to live with ANYBODY else besides my family. When I was in highschool I researched college...
