YAY, 4 months today! 24 weeks left until I meet my baby. I cannot wait to smell and kiss this lil sucker. Three of my close friends are expecting too. Jennifer is 7 months along with her and Davide's 2nd baby girl, Baby Stella. Noah, my godbaby, just turned 4. Jenn and I have been BFFs since 3rd grade, so this is really excting for our families. Gabby is 22 weeks along with Baby Johnson. Gabby and I have known each other since elementary bc her mom, Mrs. Reynolds, was one of my Reading Teachers. Her husband, BJ, and I have been close friends since 6th grade. Jenn, BJ and I went to South Grand Prairie together and are all Class of 2000 AND Leos!! Last but not least is My Cuh Cuh, Shyra Ely, also a LEO, is 3 months along with her and Pee Wee's 1st, Baby Gash. We have a few fun things up our sleeves for everyone. This was no accident that our babies are practically going to be twins. LOL. We share the same jersey number, 43. We are obssessed with each other. This obssession started when we were at THE University of Tennesee!! GO VOLS!!! Of course, our babies are already BFFs... I am beyond excited to have so many of, not my just friends, but my best friends having babies right now. I will be mentioning these people alot so get familiar with their names. Greatness is about to be born folks, I DECLARE!
I got this idea from Gabby's blog to keep everyone updated. Thanks girl!!
Total weight gain/loss? I gained 6 lbs. I'm for sure its all in my butt and boobs. I'm the self proclaimed Boobologist so this really excites me. I'm spilling out of my bras!!! D cup, Dream cup, here I come!! I always wanted at least half of Camille Little's booty so bring on the BUTT baby!!!
Bump showing? To me it's showing but I normally get "Girl go on somewhere. Aint nothing there!" HA! Meanies!
I know you see it!
Maternity Clothes? No, no need. I wear clothes that are skin tight and super short, so I've had to retire my junior section clothes.
Stretch Marks? Nope! Kathleen didn't get them so I'm hoping that's hereditary. I just stay oiled up.
Sleep? I swear my body feels like I'm going through 2 a days. I wake up between 7 to 9 am and crash from 3pm to 6,7,8 pm. TYDE! I've always been a night owl. So, I don't get to bed most nights until after midnight depending on if I get my nap. If no nap I'm scooting to my bed at around 8. lol.
Dreams? My dreams have traditionally always been more dramatic than most, and I'm a person that dreams every night. SO NOW! OH MUH GAH! This week I've dreamt alot about being at my Granny's house. She has been deceased since 97' I believe. Which makes being at her house a bit weird. In every dream at her house I'm always not prepared to breastfeed. I never know how and my mom is always there to help me. I haven't seen my Granny yet in my dream. I was in her room and last night I was in her living room with all of my family. I'm kind of excited about the night that I do see Granny and get to talk to her. She was my only grandparent that I got to know. Tree's parents died before we were born and my mom's dad died when we were too young to remember him clearly. To get to see my Granny again even if it's in my dreams would make me really happy. She was a Leo too so I always feel like we would of had alot in common as adults. Tear!
Best moment this week? This week has been blah! Nothing special.
Miss anything? I miss my lifestyle a bit. I love home but I'm bored to pieces. I would have alot of gatherings at my place. Good food, drinks and other fun things we like to partake in. Basically, TurnUp everyday bc we could. This may sound immature but I miss it. Just being honest. My lil baby boo is worth the turndown. It was time.
Baby movement? Not yet.
Workout this week? I'll let you know when I workout any week. Lol.
Hormonal moment of the week? I applied to be apart of a mentor program where elite ex athletes get mentored for year by the most elite business women out there. I wasn't one of the 25 candidates picked. DENIED! I had a defeated moment where I was discouraged about everything. I had a quick feel sorry for myself moment where I cried in my pillow. lol. I'm over it now. Gotta keep pushin!!!
Food cravings? Cereal and milk. Big pickles in the gallon jar. Fruit with salt on it. Real Meat, beef and pork!! Mooooo!! OINK OINK!!
Anything making you queasy or sick? No
Purchased any baby things yet? My baby already has a killer wardrobe. This lil sucker has a starter Ralph Lauren collection already. Ralph Lauren had a sale that I couldn't say no too. I also purchased a doppler fetal monitor to listen to my Baby Boo's heartbeat. It's very therapeutic.
Gender prediction? I know what I'm having bc I did the Harmony test. But waiting until I can see for myself at 20 weeks to tell everyone.
Baby Names? Yes. I've had my baby names for about 5 years now. I'm such a girl!!
Other body changes? My back kills me. I have never ever pee'ed this much in muh life. I go at least 10xs a day.
Belly button in or out? In
Happy or moody most of the time? I'm happy most of the time.
Looking forward to? My next sonogram appointment. I haven't seen my Baby Boo since 11 weeks 5 days.
Wishing you the best in your pregnancy and for a healthy baby. You mentioned that you wouldn't mind answering questions? Mine is: What criteria did you use in choosing a donor?
