6 Months In!


6 months in and a smile for you :)

My my my. 22 weeks finally. Only three left to go, sheesh. It's going by fast, yet it's not going by fast.

I was a bit worried that I hadn't felt Sariah kick as much she usually does, but then I remembered now is where babies enter a sleep cycle, so she's probably snoozing in right now. She definitely makes up for it when I'm going to sleep! I probably spend an hour just laying there trying to get used to those thumps.

Also think I'm not really friends with milk anymore...it just suddenly decided it didn't like me -_-

I actually had my scan last week but didn't get a chance to post it yet. I went in for the anatomy scan and of course Riah charmed the UT...again. She's so crazy, that's why I love her :D

To the people where I live, who think I shouldn't have my daughter this one's for you :

She seems pretty happy don't you think?

5 Months In!


5 months in! She said hello this morning :)

18 weeks, 1 day today. Almost half way there! Still feels like a light year though :/

Anyways came back from another scan and everything still seems to be in tip top shape. Darling daughter of mine seems to have been keeping herself busy as I still feel her thumping my stomach a couple times a day. I think she likes her new found skill :P

Under the surface, everything else is just peachy. I can sleep again, I'm not craving so many things at once, but I am seriously obsessed with cherries and cereal at the moment.

We also have settled on a name!!!! But we're not going to tell it just yet...(;

Here's now where things start getting serious. I have the shower to plan, as I am making my own candy decorations. I also found a nursery that I just love so I'm trying to save up for that.

Oh, and well I can't keep it a secret anymore.

4 months in!


4 months in - second trimester today!- flutters :)


14 weeks today eek! Which means I'm into my second trimester officially. Jeez, it seems now it's going by pretty fast :S never the less, it's a moment to celebrate! I'm just honestly glad I'm not sick anymore and able to enjoy my favorite foods...for now...knock on wood.

I think I'm getting huge! Well it just seems like at times I grow an inch or so, but I think it's in my head o_O ehh, we'll see how huge I get in the next couples months :P

I also thought I felt a flutter! It wasn't a kick obviously, but it felt as if someone just swiped their hand across my stomach. I was discussing this with a couple other people and even though it varies, it's possible to feel small flutters here and there, but maybe it's just gas (; I don't know, but it feels a bit strange sometimes.

All in all I'm feeling pretty snazzy so far and I'm hoping I can remain this peaceful for just a bit longer before I start really showing and what not. I haven't felt this good in a while, I won't lie.

This may be a TMI, but my "girls" are also looking good still :P you may or may not know what it's like to be head council of the itty bitty titty committee, just saying.

Well, I guess that's all that's happening at the moment. On the bright side, my bf took me out to lunch to celebrate today, it was fun, even thought I almost had a heart attack because he almost hit a cat :( but luckily the cat made it across the street safely and we didn't crash :S damn cats always dashing in the middle of road I'll tell you what.

Okay, I think that's enough. Friday is the big day I find out what the gender is! I'm not going to say what I'm hoping for, because every time I express my expectations, I always get something different :P but we'll see if I'm team blue or team pink.

Watch me balloon :

3 Months In!


3 Months In - Peanut makes its debut! I miss my coffee

Warning : some TMI's taking place.

Hey look my fetus can do a magic trick, like appear! I swear I woke up one morning and it was like BAM! BELLY! Well not exactly, but still. I guess it's official this baby is here to stay and thriving at that :)

On a bad note : my cravings are killing me :/ I seriously don't know what else I'll find tasty when in actuality, it's disgusting. I mean, do you find pickles and peanut butter delicious? CAUSE I DO. Like for reals, it's good >.<

Oh yeah, I also pee constantly! This isn't very fun when it happens at work, nor the fact that I work at Starbucks, and I MISS MY COFFEE! I feel like a crack head being tempted all the dang time cause it's smell is just so intoxicating.

And last but not least : night time sickness! Not only do I get sick in the morning, but I deal with it at night too :/ I'm almost afraid of the night now. Sheesh kid, take it easy on me will ya?

On a good note : I'm finding out the gender in more or less 3 weeks! I'm just an incredibly impatient person, nor do I want to wait until the very end to figure out if it's a ding dong or a hoo hoo inside me.

I have a feeling it may be a boy though (;

2 Months In!

I'm late on this, but I've been pretty busy with such stuff. However, I still wanted to keep this as a little momento for later on :)

Well I'm officially two months in, soon to be three. So far, things have been good with junior slowly growing. Had another appointment and looks like he/she's developing pretty well so I'm pretty happy about that. The only real thing that sucks at this point is that I've been really sick and spend most of my days after work snuggling in my blanket. Although walking every day seems to help. Also the fact, that the cravings have commenced! Like seriously, this might be a tad bit difficult to control. The other day I craved peanut butter and jelly with cream cheese on crackers, and then the next day I craved pickles and peanut butter &gt;.&lt; I mean this is ironic since I'm kind of a weird eater anyways, but still eww. More than anything, I hope they don't get too bad, I've already pickles and ice cream. Twice. So err yeah...gotta love cravings.

Anyways, this was in my inbox today :

Hello, Gia!

Your baby is now 5/8 of an inch long, about the size of a kidney bean. New this week: Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. His arms have lengthened, too, and his hands are now flexed at the wrist and meet over his heart. His knee joints have formed, and his feet may be long enough to meet in front of his body. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways.

Yes, I'm one of THOSE moms that just finds every little detail fascinating. But I mean once you're in my position, you'd understand why :)

Well I guess nothing else has happened that's amazing enough to blab about, but on the plus side, my boyfriend joined Mibba! Well I forced him, but he seems to be having a lot more fun than me o_O So add him, bug him, or whatever.

So yeah, this sums up this little entry for month two. I really hope this sickness goes away :/ but oh well, c'est la vie :') I also know most people don't really 'come out' with this until 9 weeks, but I like to be fashionably early, sue me.

Until next time.

1 Month In!

Well,

I didn't picture it happening so soon, but I got the biggest frigging shock of my life yesterday. I don't know what to make of it, rather it hasn't sunk in yet, but there's a part of me deep down that's bouncing around. I think I'm gonna burst. I'm feeling scared, yet deliriously happy. I can't even describe how shocked I am, but I'm also feeling pretty blessed. I just hope things work out the way I had pictured. The future seems so scary sometimes doesn't it? Either way, I'm sure I'll be fine :D I feel a little strange talking about this, but I'm so happy for once I felt the need to share.

Around November I'll be expecting a baby.

Sweet cheese, I can't even...wow. I'm just afraid I'm gonna hear all that 'you're too young' stuff, but ya know I come from a great family and I busted my arse through school with exceptional grades. I really try my hardest at every thing I do and I've never been the type of kid that's gotten in trouble. I know it's going to be a long road ahead, but things happen and you just have to adjust accordingly. I know I'm a strong person and I know I'll love my child more than anything. :)

I'm just happy I have the support of family and especially the father of my potential child. No matter how this happened and even if it was unexpected, it's the greatest gift I'll ever receive.
