Third Trimester with Baby #2


This trimester consists of weeks 28-40


How far along?  
38.5 weeks 

Maternity clothes?
Yes 

Stretch marks?
Nope, I was blessed with stretchy skin I guess!!

Sleep?
Not the best sleep ever, but I am getting some. Some nights it is hard to breath when I lay on a certain side.
my hips and back are really starting to hurt throughout the night, which makes me start to toss and turn.
 Naps are a must every day now.

Favorite moments?
When Liam will come and kiss my tummy and give sister hugs.
Eating whatever I want because it is the only thing that makes me feel better. 
haha

Moments you will not miss?
The continual jumping and pushing on of the bladder.
The violent kicking of the ribs and stomach.  There have been times she has made me scream!
Having to pee every hour on the dot!
the constant uncomfortable feeling
waking up every2-3 hours to pee in the night.
Being extremely tired all day.
Sleeping with a million pillows for support.
the constant hiccups.

Miss anything? 
Sleep.
Walking normal.
Working out.
Normal clothes.

Movement: 
Still moves constantly! It would probably be easier to keep track of the times she didn't move.
And when she does move it is so violent and hurts so bad.  My bladder stings and my ribs start to hurt.

Babies Position:
Head is way way down!! I am pretty sure that if my water were to brake she would just come flying out!!

Food cravings: 
Still crave fast food and Taco Bells crunch wrap supreme!
My pop craving has gone up also.  I am wanting diet dr. pepper though. which I normally drink coke zero

Anything making you queasy or sick?
Only if I over eat or have to much sugar.

Symptoms?
Went to the doctors on Thursday, April 27th(2 weeks before due date).  She checked me and said I was dilated to 3cm and 70% effaced, so my cervix is very soft and favorable.  
Crazy to think she really could come at any moment.
My mucus plug has come out(on Saturday April 29th), so I really feel like she could be here in a few days, but babies like to ruin our plans so she probably wont come till after the due date.

*My last appointment was Wednesday, May 3rd(one week before the due date) and I have progressed to 4cm dilated and 80% effaced.  She said I was an excellent candidate to be induced, so we set the date for that Friday(May 5th).

Belly button in or out?
Flat with my belly right now, so kind of neither.

Wedding rings on or off?  
on

Happy or moody most of the time:
A lot happier now.  Probably because she really could be here any day now!

Looking forward to: 
Holding her.
Seeing Liam with her and how he will respond to everything.
Seeing Michael with a little girl!

 
 


The picture on the left is me pregnant with Liam exactly 2 years ago and on the right with Macey.
I cant believe how much bigger I was with Liam a week before my due date.

We took some final photos as a family of 3 and just of mommy and Liam.  I cant believe he will no longer be the only child!



Towards the end of the shoot, Liam was so ready to be done haha

Two Down and Eternity to Go

    This year we decided to do something simple for our anniversary  All I knew for this anniversary is that we were going to eat somewhere in downtown Salt Lake.   To my surprise I have the most brilliant husband ever because he took me to my most favorite restaurant ever!!    Cheesecake Factory!  Don't ask me why, but it is the best restaurant ever! I know you might be thinking.  "wow this girl is crazy",  but just trust me nothing can beat The Cheesecake Factory.   My favorite's there are:  Avocado eggrolls and sweetcorn tamale cakes for appetizers.   For the dinner plate their garlic noodles with shrimp and some parmesan on top.  Then of course for dessert I love love love there ultimate red velvet cheesecake and their Oreo one is pretty good as well. Anytime we go somewhere new and they have a cheesecake factory we have to go.   It is my goal to go to as many as I can in my li...

OUR LITTLE PUMPKIN IS DUE MAY 9, 2015

Yup you read that right we are having a baby, May 9, 2015!! I surprised Michael by sending him a picture of my pregnancy test. So when he woke up that was the first thing he saw. I did the same with my mom because I needed her guidance on what I needed to do. It was defiantly killing her to not be able to tell anyone the news, but I definitely appreciate all the advice I have gotten as well as another person to talk to about it. We were so excited when we found out, we just wanted to tell everyone right away, but we waited and learned patience. I would have been so heart broken to have to tell everyone if we had a miscarriage. When we found out I was pregnant, I was 5 weeks along, so for my first appointment they had to take a blood test.  For those of you who know me, know that I do not do well  with needles and veins in the same sentence. As you can imagine I did not do well.   I kept moving an...
