7 weeks left! (Assuming Jaden isn't as anxious to get here as we are. :p)
This week has been pretty good. Nothing too much out of the ordinary besides emotions running everywhere. :p Yesterday I was trying to read a customer review for sugar free gummy bears (which was HILARIOUS ps) and I couldn't finish reading it because I was laughing too hard, and then out of nowhere it turned into real crying. Like borderline sobs. And then I laughed because I'm pretty much just crazy I guess. :p That's not the first time it's happened, but I swear this week I'm just a total basket case of different emotions. It's really fun, I promise! ;)
According to my app, Jaden is a little over 4 pounds now, and he's just over 17 inches long. So... that's getting pretty close to newborn sizes. He looks like a real baby now! Including having a little more chub on him hopefully. :) It also says that his bones are hardening more this week which would explain the past weeks craving...
Best part of this week: he's big enough that when he moves around you can see what side he's on because my belly is lopsided. :p Also, he's less shy. Or more stubborn. I can't decide which, but at first when he'd stretch and you'd push back against his foot (or hand or elbow or...) he'd move away really fast! Lately he just pushes back harder and moves it around like, "no way, I'm comfy. I'm staying here!" :p It's been really funny to be able to 'interact' more.
Hardest part of this week: I am so tired. Probably because I stink at sleeping because my hips and pelvis hate me right now. I think I'm seriously going to relocate to the recliner soon.
Aversions: Um... water and granola bars. (I need to get over the water one. I swear I'm going to get kidney stones one of these days.)
Cravings: Milk!!! If I'm hungry lately, nothing will sound good except for a big glass of milk. :p (Hence getting kidney stones. That's like my only liquid intake.) I've discovered that chocolate banana 'milk shakes' are my new favorite snack ever. I just blend a banana in with my chocolate milk and some ice cubes... it maybe doesn't even sound that wonderful but to my pregnant taste buds it's as good as dessert! :p
I am sure Jaden is loving the milk shakes....He will have strong healthy bones...Be careful because Cherene and Sharla were just four pounds and ten ounces when they arrived....... too tiny...they are easier to care for inside until they get a few pounds larger.....When do you stop working? You will probobly get more rest then.....Take naps in the daytime while you can.....Love you....Come see me sometime....Stay welll....
