Pregnancy Update

While I was at the park with Colton and some friends recently, a random little boy came up to me and tried to pull up my shirt. He asked me...

"Is that a balloon in there?"


3 Weeks and 1 day until my scheduled C-Section on April 25th. My obgyn said I will be spending 3 nights in the hospital. I'm feeling very excited to meet our little girl. It doesn't feel real yet. My weight is at 133 lbs. and I'm hoping I've plateaued because I weighed 134 lbs. at the very end of my pregnancy last time. However, I can't seem to say no to any food so I'm expecting atleast a few more lbs. We still haven't decided on a baby name for sure yet. Ryley Jane is the front runner since we can't seem to agree on anything else. Devin likes Haley and Kira and I like Dakota. This pregnancy has been a little easier than with Colton. First off, I had the "happy pill"-Zofran- to help me hold down food and instead of losing 8-10 lbs. in the first trimester like I did with Colton, I actually gained a pound. I vomited atleast 70% less with the pill and although I still felt sick, it provided some relief and made it bearable. I haven't had to deal with heartburn like with Colton. Since Colton has kept me so active this pregnancy, I haven't been so achy. Sleeping just reached it's super uncomfortable point this past week.

I've been waiting for this update. Except I'm sad to see there aren't any accompanying pictures! Post a belly pic, mama. :) I just hit the halfway mark. It's only just beginning to make a difference in my ability to move "swiftly". Though, with a toddler nearby, for some reason I still manage to move when it comes to saving her wild self from injury after injury!
