Pregnancy update..did someone say Spaghettio's?

Well I am officially 6 1/2 months along, or 26 weeks for those of you in the maternity world!

I am actually feeling pretty good these days! *knock on wood. Baby is kicking quite a bit, but unfortunately not hard enough yet that Mike can feel it very often. But when he does it is exciting and fun! My only "issues" are sleep and heartburn, which tend to go hand in hand. For some reason every night around 1 a.m. I have to use the "facilities"...you can set your watch to it. And then around 2 or 3 a.m. I am wide awake, so that is super fun. Sometimes that is caused by the heartburn, which I had never experienced before! It is horrible! Thank god for Tums - and yes Libby, you're right. The berry ones are the best! But for the most part, I am doing really well!!!

My nose is still pretty impressive. Pickle barely beats me smelling a skunk outside. Not by much though! She can bark faster than I can open my mouth and get the words out, believe it or not!

As far as cravings they are kicking in and completely random. The latest is Spaghettio's. I know, not really the most nutritious thing, but they are DELISH! Mike got the ones with meatballs the other day and got an earful from me... *tisk tisk! I also love everything bagels and Tillamook mudslide ice cream. All in moderation of course!

I have a Dr. appointment next Friday. I am starting to go in every three weeks now, which is fun because that means things are getting closer! I can't believe I am only two weeks away from being in my third trimester! I have also been doing really well with my weight, at my last appointment two weeks ago I weighed the same as when I found out I was pregnant. I haven't put on any weight yet, which I am really excited about. It is amazing what 4 months of morning sickness will do! But I am not naive enough to think that streak will last much longer, baby is growing...and so is my appetite!

Look for 7 month pics in a couple of weeks! Stay tuned!

  1. I used Pepcid AC Complete & it worked SO much better than Tums. Only one & it lasted all night long!! Try that before you go to bed. Sounds like its all going well. We are so happy for the two of you. Hoping to make it to PVille on the 19th for your shower. xoxoxo
