Well, Mr. Man, you are proving to be stubborn.  Maybe you didn’t get the memo, but you are suppose to be BORN.   I’m still at home.  When I sit down the contractions taper off some, but when I stand up they come much faster and more intense.   We’re waiting it […]

Hey Baby Boy! We had an OB appointment yesterday.  You are 36.5 weeks along now (3.5 to go!).   Your heartbeat was 162 bpm, and they are estimating your weight to be about 6 lbs 3 oz right now based on the measurements they took during the ultrasound.  That means if […]

35 Weeks Total Weight Gain– 32 pounds Cravings– Still no cravings really… Sleep-  Just like last update, sleep still sucks.   Apparently a symptom of pregnancy is insomnia, so sometimes I’ll randomly wake up in the middle of the night and be wide awake, and then not be able to go […]
