32 week appt (last Friday)

A week ago, I had my 32 week check up. I've gained 18lbs (112.4) which they were really impressed by/happy with (yay!). Belly still measured behind, but she wouldn't even tell me the measurement ;)

Lorelei hated the Doppler (as usual) & took off when the midwife got her hb (she chased her around over & over). Got to about 145 and the midwife gave up! Ha! What a brat!

Midwife prescribed meds for allergies & sleep. She said I truly need to get more sleep & prescribed Benadryl for that. Okay lady-I can't be drugged out of my mind when my son needs me! So I didn't even pick up my prescriptions! I'm a single mama right now, can't be taking risks like that.

I will be seeing a new doctor in 2 weeks (3 total weeks from the last appt) so just before 35 weeks. I have 3 doctors I've yet to meet, so I'm trying to cross them off my list, so I will know them all when it comes time for labor & delivery :)

I'm having some issues. I've had an "allergy" cough for 3 weeks (so has Liam). And I'm having horrible nerve issues in my tailbone which is causing leg/back pain and making it difficult to walk (especially when my right leg keeps going out on me). So we are off to the doctor on Tuesday to address all of these issues! Will update on that as soon as possible.

Just a little over a month and we get daddy back. Then hopefully Lorelei will make her appearance shortly after. Cannot believe we will have a daughter in a few weeks. Seems so surreal after all we've been through. Very, very much looking forward to it Miss Lorelei. Couldn't be more excited & love you soooo much lil' lady! Daddy says: Keep cooking until at least 38 weeks ;) We love you sweet girl!

25 Weeks & Doctor's Appt.

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...

One Decision Down... 18+ Years Worth Left to Go!

So, in the scheme of things this probably should have been one of the easiest decisions to make, but Kevin and I just could not agree on a crib bedding set (or theme for that matter) for our little man's nursery.  We finally got it down to two and left those on the computer to stare at for a few days.   Well, Kevin finally compromised (okay--he gave in) and my set won!  So, our son now has a bedding set and a safari themed bedroom! (on order).  Next decision (prone to more disagreements, I'm sure) is finding our little man a name!  If you ask Kevin, his name is Aisen, but I have yet to agree on that (more on the great name debate later!).  For now, here is the set we're ordering our son tonight!  What do you think?!
