23 Wks (Well on Friday ;)

Hi everyone! No pics this week! I am leaving tomorrow for Graham's family reunion in British Columbia for the weekend, so I am sure I will have plenty to share next week! :) I am so excited to see Graham Friday!!!! Its been 3 weeks and I feel like I am starting to go crazy! Hopefully only 3 more weeks of this long distance business...

We had an OB appointment yesterday morning and everything went great! Heart rate is still 145 BPM, my blood pressure and weight look great! And my doctor gave me a prescription for the insane acid reflux that I have been having! Hopefully I will be able to go a few hours without tasting throw-up in my mouth for a change!

Hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the week!



Pregnancy Quiz:


How far along: 22weeks, 5days

Total weight gain/loss: +10

Maternity clothes: I just ordered a few tops from Gap, but that is it! I will say that Belly Bands are my best friends! Hopefully I will not have to buy pants thanks to this invention! :)

Stretch marks: NO, and praying that I don't get them!

Sleep: Good. Ugh! Still not great, but defiantly better! I still get up once a night to pee, and my hips KILL me during the night, but I feel like I have a lot more energy that I did a month ago!

Best moment this week: Doctors appointment yesterday! She said our little girl looks perfectly healthy! I get so stressed for some reason every time I go in there!

Movement: Her kicks/punches are getting so strong! I am really hoping Graham can feel her when I see him this weekend!

Food cravings: Mild Duds and Oreos!!!! This is new because I am NOT a sweets or a chocolate person, but I am in love with these two items right now!

Gender: Girl!

Labor Signs: None

Belly Button in or out: Still In, but just barely :(

What I miss: An actual wardrobe. I wear the same things over and over and over!

What I am looking forward to: Seeing G this weekend! And hopefully him being able to feel her kick for the first time!

Weekly Wisdom: Don't agree to your husband working out of town while you are pregnant! No matter what they offer to pay!

Milestones: ??? Gaining 10 pounds, being the heaviest I have EVER been, and being completely fine with it!


Oh and for everyone who doesn't know... We moved into a house!!!!

Our New address is:
2407 1 AVE NW, Calgary Alberta
T2N 0C1

Phone numbers stayed the same...

21 Weeks!!!

By the end of this week, she'll measure about 7 inches from crown to rump and weigh nearly a pound. Not bad for a little girl who weighed barely an ounce 10 weeks ago! Her hearing is developing, and sounds from your conversations can be heard inside the uterus--along with your heartbeat, stomach rumblings, and the pulsing of blood vessels. In fact, the womb is so noisy that it's been compared to an airport runway during takeoff; it's thought that the stimuli prepare the baby for the cacophony of noises, sights, and sounds that will greet him at birth.

21 Weeks! Not much new to report. I am ready for my next appointment! I am ready for my next ultrasound! I feel like I haven't seen her in forever! hehe! I cant wait to see how much she has grown. I love watching the ultrasounds because she is always so active!

RETIREMENT of the WEDDING RING! I am so sad to say it, but I don't think I will be wearing my engagement\wedding ring much longer! :( It makes me so sad! I never go a day without it. I never have problems getting it on in the mornings, but as the day goes on it gets tighter and tighter and I usually cant get it off without the help of cold water! I know I only have 4 months to go, but I really cant imagine not wearing it that long... Ah well :(

I hope that everyone has a great weekend!

Late Again!

So this is suppose to be my 20 week post, but 20 wks was last Friday! So technically I am 20 weeks, 5 days, But I will still post last weeks pics. Mostly because the dogs are in them and they look so cute! hehe.

On the baby front, our little girl is growing fast and furious! I love the afternoons because she gets pretty active! I love to feel her moving around. Last night I woke up from a bad dream to find her kicking like crazy... guess she didnt like the dream either ;)

Graham is still away working which sucks, but I actually got to see him last week for a day and a half, and apparently the job will be done the 1st week of September instead of the 1st week of October! I am so relieved! 2 months is long enough!

In other news we are also moving out of our condo and into a house! YIPPPPEEEE!!!! I all happened pretty fast, but we are going to love being in a house again! And the kids will love having a yard again!

Anyway, that is all for now! I promise to try and actually update on time from now on!!!

Have a great rest of the week!

Love

Jamie and Graham
