blah blogging... (23 weeks)

I need to set a few things straight. Anytime I complain about pregnancy symptoms my husband reminds me that "I love being pregnant." Yes, I do. But it is also very hard on my body.

My bones and joints ache.

I can't get comfortable sleeping.

I have another human being using my organs as a punching bag.

I have to pee every 30 minutes.

My skin itches.

Rib pain when I sleep. No more underwire bras.

Heartburn/indigestion/reflux.

I'm moody.

My boobs are huge (and not in a good way.)

I get headaches.

I have a cold but can't take Nyquil!

My gums bleed.

I don't have maternity coverage.

With all that off my chest, yes "I do love being pregnant."

I am very happy to have a healthy baby growing inside.

My blood pressure is absolutely perfect!

I haven't gained too much weight (yet).

No stretch marks.

It's a girl!

I'm excited for Lillie to be a big sister!

I have a very supportive family.

I have the best husband!

So on to details of my last appointment.

I went to go see dr. M (the specialist) on Wednesday.

Still a girl.

BP 115/60

Didn't take weight.

She weighs 1 pound 6 ounces. Wow!

My sis and niece say she looks just like Lillie.

I think she looks like a healthy baby!

A few 23 week belly shots...

On to random blogging...

Lillie and I have been sick since Saturday. She has been a real daddy's girl. Here's a pic of her and Chris "fake sleeping".
When Lillie starts feeling better she starts getting in to trouble. Draven found Lillie "taking a bath" in the toilet.
