I'm 25 weeks and 1 day pregnant. Things are going well. We are getting the condo ready to sell and we are talking to my parents again which is great. Sometimes I get pretty upset when I think about being a single Mom when my little one is born... It just wasn't my plan... But I guess that I should know by now that sometimes my plan doesn't mean anything in the grand scheme of things.

I'm feeling the baby every day and loving it! I love when Kevin can feel it too... He's started touching my belly a lot more now... it's nice showing and having him want to feel the baby kick and just be close to us... I love it. :) I've realized that I feel even more that I need to be snuggled with now that I'm pregnant more than ever. :)

I think that I've started having those Braxton Hicks contractions... They don't really hurt, they just make my stomach feel really tight and uncomfortable to get up and walk around a whole lot. I cannot believe that I have 15 weeks to go... that just seems so unreal to me that I will have my own little baby somewhere around that time. Time is going to fly I'm sure... especially with all of the holidays coming up.

Hope all is going well with all of you Mommy's to be!!!! =)

I'm 27 weeks and 2 days... MAN, time is just flying by... After my next appointment we'll start going every two weeks... I just can't believe that we're already to this point. My goal is to start walking 3 times a week... nothing too long or strenuous... just some good ole exercise to stay on track. And I have new news... WE'RE ENGAGED!!!! YAY!!!!! My ring is soooo beautiful!! He did such a GREAT job!!! We haven't set a date but I am totally loving having my very own fiancé and being one as well!!! :)

I really don't think that my life could get any better!!!!

December 4th, 2007

I'm 32 weeks today... We only have 8 weeks to go and it seems like a short amount of time but also like it's a lifetime away!!! Odd that it can feel like that at the same time... Anyway, my angel is moving around quite a bit... and I love it! Kev hasn't been able to feel the baby move all that much... He always seems to pick a time when the baby is sleeping or just isn't patient enough to get a good kick. Oh well... I try to get him to touch it all the time... but he seems to lose interest pretty quickly. I on the other hand, can't get enough... I love feeling the baby kick and move on my hands... it just amazes me and I think that it feels so neat when s/he is rolling around in there! :)

We go to the doctor again on the 10th... I'm going to try to remember to ask the doctor what direction the baby is and what the heart rate is... So far I was only told twice and that was months ago.

I get BH contractions quite a bit... hopefully this means that my body will be completely ready when the time comes and everything will go smoothly.

I've been real tired lately... I thin a combination of the weather, waking up constantly during the night and getting bigger is taking its toll... I wake up a lot at night when i try to roll over and get comfortable... My pubic bone hurts so bad that sometimes it literally brings tears to my eyes... laying down is the worst... closely followed by standing and walking. The doctor says that its normal, but I'm afraid that within the next 2 months I won't be able to walk at all... I'm trying to stay positive though...and trying to work through it. I will get a special gift out of this and it will all be worth it. At this time I have gained about 25 pounds. Ugh! I hope that it is able to come off relatively quickly once the baby is born. Some or it might be water weight... I've been pretty swollen for the last several weeks and elevating my feet doesn't really seem to be helping.

Kev and I might go to the courthouse and get married before the baby is born... We've talked about that a little bit and think that we might not tell anyone... Then once the baby is born we might just go to Hawaii and have a reception here. That's the talk anyway... We'll see... I guess we should talk a little more serious about it to figure out what we are going to do... Wow! only 8 weeks left. :)
