22 weeks

Here is my 22 week bump. My feet are sooo thankful our double move is now over! They were aching & swelling pretty bad this weekend!

We are settled into our apartment (& very comfy, thanks to our generous family!). Kevin has started his journey to Texas (Los Angeles first to check out! Yay!).

Loralai Rose has started becoming a maniac inside of me. She is flipping around (sort of makes me nauseated) & kicking/punching like crazy. Her movements are still pretty low, but moving up a bit!

This morning, I checked into the Obgyn on base. I have an appt on Thurs. with a nurse to get the paperwork done to assign me an Ob. Hoping to have a real appt. next week so we can check my belly growth & weight!

Liam mentions his sister at random. He is also regressing a bit (ped said to expect it with the move!). He told me the other day "Liam baby!" I said "Liam big boy, baby is in mama's belly." He said "no Liam big baby!" I think he's a bit worried he's being replaced. I'm sure he will accept his big brother role & do very well at it. Just a lot of adjusting/changes occurring right now!

Therapy...

By
Not being silent about our loss is looking to be the best therapy for me during this difficult time. Through Facebook I've had countless friends reach out to me and share their stories of loss. Although it doesn't make me feel better, as we're talking about too many babies in heaven, it does make me feel less alone. So I was diagnosed w/ blighted ovum. Meaning the gestational sac and placenta was growing inside of me (the ultrasound showed it was indeed around 7 weeks along) but the baby stopped developing and was reabsorbed into my uterus. Problem is, the placenta is responsible for pregnancy symptoms, so my body still thinks it is pregnant, but there is no longer a baby or embryo. So, until I actually miscarry the tissue, I will feel pregnant. I don't know how to explain how I've been feeling the past few weeks. At first I thought it was just my uneasy feelings of this pregnancy being "unplanned" and so close to my previous pregnancy. It took me a wh...

25 Weeks & Doctor's Appt.

By
We hit the 25 week mark today!  Hard to believe!  Time is flying so fast... We had our doctor's appointment today (Kevin is out of town Thursday, so we moved it up).  I weighed in at a whopping 109.8!  My nurse and my doctor's response was they are so so proud of me (I felt so special!  Who would have thought GAINING weight would be so exciting?!).  Kevin's response "WHOA!"  And my response to his "WATCH IT Buddy!"  Ha!  So that's almost 14lbs of weight gain!  I really am quite proud of myself... never thought I could do it (although, I spend most of my time eating these days, so it makes sense). The nurse said I "look cute, am starting to show and have that pregnancy waddle."  Considering I did not feel like I was waddling (sometimes I have to because my tailbone hurts so bad) I was not exactly thrilled about this comment, lol!  I asked Kevin if there is something he is forgetting to tell me... ha! The doctor measured my...
