Pregnancy Updates

Monday March 31stI am so tired today!!! I was actually trying to get David to stay home with me so we could sleep all day. I feel like I have NO energy for anything. I don’t think David realizes this baby is taking so much out of me. And on top of being beyond tired it’s so hard to eat because of the nausea; even crackers are becoming hard to eat. I will eat then I fight to keep it down. I can’t even drink anything without wanting to throw it up so I drink small sips throughout the day but then I only maybe finish one or two bottles of water. And everything leaves a yucky taste in my mouth even these crackers I am eating now are even leaving a yucky taste in my mouth and water doesn’t help the taste go away. Today is just one of those days I guess. Nevertheless David has been truly awesome. He has been helping out so much. Even the other night it was cold and I was all cozy in bed and didn’t want to move to plug my phone in so I made him come in the room and plug it in for me hehe. He really has been wonderful to me and won’t let me do anything at all if he even thinks it will hurt the baby which is so cute. He always wants to rub my belly and talk to it and EVERYTHING he talks about is about the baby. I am so in love with that man!!! I don’t know what I would do without him he makes me so happy and does so much for me I can’t even explain. I am so happy we have a little one on the way to complete our little family!!!

Wednesday May 14thToday I for sure felt the baby move. I have been feeling little things on and off for a week or so but I was never positive because I only felt something for a moment. Today, however, I have felt little bubbles for like an hour, so I know it is my little one moving about. It feels so strange but I already love it!!! I can't wait for my appointment on Friday because then we set the date for my big ultra sound for when we get to find out what the little one is!!!!!!

Saturday May 24thWhat a traumatizing Saturday! My boyfriend and I woke up Saturday both feeling a little frisky. Well basically in the middle of our frskiness I started cramping (not a normal cramping) and crying and I could not move. My boyfriend looked down and noticed I was bleeding, and not just a little blood but like when I stood up it was running down my leg. I stated crying immediately, luckily we have a hospital not even a mile away that we can go to. They took my blood, urine, my vitals, and all that good stuff. Then the nurse came in with the doppler, she found the heart beat right away which was such a relief (She said it sounded like a girl). We were there for eight hours for them to just tell me that it was probably just from our friskiness and to take it easy until I see my OB. It was beyond scary!!! I don’t think we will be getting frisky anytime soon, and I just had the talk with the honey about how he can’t hurt the baby and we are fine to be frisky haha..I have my follow up appointment on Wednesday so we will see what the OB says

Thursday June 12thI just wanted to say that tomorrow I am going to be 20 weeks (5 months) and I couldn't be any happier to be pregnant with my little Paxton Dean Lofton! I love him beyond words and I can not wait to meet my little man. He is apart of everything I do, every thought I have, and he is already everything to me. I am so happy to be experiencing this with the most amazing man, David! I am so blessed! I have my appointment tomorrow; I get my results back from my blood tests and from my ultra sound! Cross my fingers everything looked and is good

Friday August 8thToday I go in for my glucose test and Rhogam shot. I am really nervous about both of them. I have already had one shot before and it wasn't very pleasant so I am not looking forward to another one. And as far as the glucose test, I am just praying I pass. I can't imagine not having my ice cream and other little goodies! Wish me luck ladies I will update my blog about my appt. later on.
