What a great weekend huh? Well, Sunday anways! We were outside Sunday from 1pm until 7:45pm! The kids did not even stop to take a nap! We had my sister-n-laws over and then neighbors continued to drop by...it was lovely. But now, the kids and I woke up this morning hacking and sneezing and my voice seemed to be taken over by the truck driver down the road who smokes 3 packs a day.
Other than that it was totally worth it! Saturday I did laundry and cleaned, and that felt good to get that out of the way. My poor little husband had already gotten a cold and was needing to be babied A LOT. Oh well.
Friday I had my doctor visit and an ultrasound. My visit was fantastic, as always since my midwife is a hoot! Today I think we talked about kids roomming together and why she only had two kids...hilarious. But the greatest news which I wasn't expecting was her telling me that if I don't gain any weight in two more weeks, she's going to have to yell at me to eat more! What??!!That was the best news ever! See, my last two pregnancies I gained roughly almost 40 pounds! This time, ok, drum roll please...dadadadadaddaadada 14.4 pounds!! How is that possible? Here's my conclusion. With Brady, my first, I napped a ton, and I mean alot, and got up and snacked like twice a night and had like a mini breakfast when I got up, (I worked at 6:30 in the morning then) and then bigger breakfast at work. And did I mention I napped alot?
Then with Halle I continued the eating in the middle of the night and slept when Brady slept. No exercise. Now with this one, I maybe can count the number of naps I've had on both my hands, am running non stop becaue Halle is miss adventurerer slash daredevil and Brady is 3....what more can I say about that! Besides that I do not wake up in the middle of the night to eat and when I am at work I signed up for $30/ a year to the gym we have in the basement and have been using the stationery bike 2-3 days a week. I mentioned like no naps and no midnight snacking right? Yep. I am so proud of myself! Now, I did start out a little heavier than normal when I got pregnant with this baby, but, I'm still very happy with how it is going. And, granted, I still have like 7 weeks left and I'm supposed to gain a pound a week, but I could have massive jumps in weight, but I am going to be optimisitic.
Oh, and the ultrasound went well, they were checking to make sure the baby's placenta had moved away from cervix so that the baby could come out and it did move up, with Halle I had the same thing so I wasn't worried, but I always love to hear that there will be no planned c-section! The baby looked good too, enough fluid and strong heart beat 136.
So! We're just chillin' at home today, skipped ECFE due to the colds, and we're just going to love life at home today!
