7/20/07 I am 18 weeks today and I feel wonderful. I can not express the feeling of excitment that I feel everyday I wake up and look at myself. I feel as if the pregnancy has turned me into a stranger. Yet I'm very happy to become a mommy. I can't really complain much although my stomach is starting to itch me a little bit. I do moisture my belly a lot but I guess its a part of being pregnant. I just hope it doesn't get really bad. I totally don't look forward to having any stretch marks.
7/25/07 Today I went to the Dr. and I heard my babies heart beat for the first time. It was going from 145-150. I was sooooo happy to hear it! I can not wait for next time. We find out the gender of the baby in two weeks. I hope the baby cooperates with us. I seriously couldn't be happier knowing that the baby heart beat was going.
7/2707 I'm 19 weeks today and I feel great! I can not believe I will be 5 months already next week. The closer a get the more scared I get, since its going to be my first delivery I really don't know what to expect. I watch a lot of baby stories on TV, just to knowledge myself but I know its different seeing it then going through it. I really hope it goes has smooth as possible. As far as my belly there's time where I feel I'm big and then there's other time where I feel small. It's weird but I think a lot has to do with what I wear.
8/3/07 I'm 20 weeks day! There is NO turning back. lol Everything is getting closer and closer....oh my goodness. I finally was able to go to the beach today with my hubby and my best friend. I took pictures so lets see which one I'll be posting up. I honestly can not wait for three major things 1) finding out the gender next Friday 2) my Baby Shower and 3) giving birth to my first child. Wow....what a blessing!!!
8/10/07 Today I'm 21 weeks and its been a long day. My husband didn't have his car to take me to get my u/s, so we took public transportation. It took us about an hour and a half to get there but it was all worth it. Not to meantion the it was raining out. The best thing was that there were not a lot of ppl there, so we were in the room quick. Anyway, being in the room with my husband getting checked for an hour the baby was being lazy. He/she did not want to move much nor open its legs. I'm assuming that's a girl, although it can be a boy because its happened before. They set up an appt. for us to go back in two weeks. So hopefully they can tell us then. :0)
8/17/07 Another week already! I can not believe I'm 22 weeks today!!! Well for the past week I've been feeling a lot of leg cramps on my calves. One day it was so bad that I couldn't get up right away to walk. I wanted to cry so bad. I really just hope that it doesn't get worse. I do not have any stretch marks yet, which I don't look toward on getting. Its interesting how the baby can recognize my mood swings by now. We still have to wait to get our next u/s on the 24th of this month. So hopefully this time we can find out the gender of our shy/lazy baby. We def fell the baby move a whole lot more now! :0) Take care!
8/24/07 23 weeks in the making today! I went for my other u/s today and you wouldn't believe that the baby was covering its private part the whole time. They had me walk around to see it the baby would move but nothing. Being lazy just like the daddy! lol I guess it just wants to be a surprise but thats fine. My hubby and I also found out some great news today by my Doctor which is that the baby doesn't have down syndome. That was such a relieve to the both of us! The babies heart rate was normal, I gained 15 pounds so far. They finally gave me an u/s picture today so I'll be posting that up soon.
8/31/07 All I have to say is that it feels great to be 24 weeks today. Although I'm getting bigger, its worth all the hassle. At this point, I can not wait to meet the baby. Its the BEST feeling in the world. Just the thought that in a fews months I'll be carrying my bundle of joy. The baby better prepare itself because I love taking pictures.
10/5/07 Well let me start off by saying that yesterday I went for my sugar test and that was very nasty. Especially that fact that your not allowed to eat anything then you have to drink that. YUCK! I drank it in five minutes and was so happy when I finished. After waiting an hour they took out two tubes of blood and I get to find out my results next week. I hope everything they find is okay. I'm 29 weeks today and I'm so excited that in a few more weeks I'll be able to see what the baby looks like. :0
10/9/07 Today I had a Dr. appt. and everything went well. He told me that my sugar test results came back good and that I wasn't anemic. My hubby and I we're both excited to hear that the baby is already in postion, with her head down. The Dr. measured her head, stomache, and legs then told us that she weighs 2.5 pounds. That's just where she has to be. I also found out that I gained a total of 25 pounds, which is ok but a little scary. Tomorrow I have a breast feeding class....that's going to be interesting to me.
10/12/07 I'm the big three zero today and I feel huge (meaning all belly), which is a very go thing. Lets keep it that way! I def feel the baby's pressure pushing down....I hope that's normal. All I have to say is ten more weeks baby!!!! :0)
10/19/07 I feel huge! Ppl keep asking me if I'm having twins. Good thing I'm not! I would look like a house. lol Well, I'm very excited b/c next Friday I'm going for my 3D u/s. I'm 31 weeks today and I'm feeling great. I hope I can continue saying that. :0)
10/26/07 HAD THE 3D U/S DONE TODAY! It was awesome! My sister-in-law (his sister) came with his and so did one of my husband's good friends. I can't believe we have a preview of our little girl. We also decided on a name today.......Eleni Jennifer. I finally feel better that I have a name picked out for her b/c it was driving me up the wall.
11/2/07 Wow November already!!! I have 7 more weeks left and I don't know what to expect. I'm so nervous everyday that goes by now. I'm pretty sure I'm going to get even more nervous as I get closer and closer. I just really hope everything goes as smooth as possible. At 33 weeks today (8 months) my belly is def weighing more and I feel it heavier. I know I'm going to miss it but she has to come out. :o)
11/24/07 36 weeks today...wow I can not believe it! I'm so excited to see what my baby is going to look like in just a few more weeks. Daddy is also REALLY excited!!!
12/14/07 I haven't really had time to update my page in about 3 weeks. I've been so busy b/c I just finished moving and b/w all the doctors appt. and other stuff, I just have not had any time. I want to upload some new pictures but my internet is not connected at the moment. Beening 39 weeks today is so special to me and I know I'm going to miss being pregnant but no one said this was going to be my last child.....God willing. Well to all the read this, I hope all is well and let me know how your doing.
