The truth about this pregnancy

Image
Very little people know about what is actually going on with this pregnancy. This is where the truth comes out and this is my blog and I would like to remember exactly how this felt. It is not that I'm ungrateful for being able to get pregnant this fast but this has been the hardest pregnancy for me. I'm sure some other woman have it worse than me but damn I feel like I am dying. Oh, and just FYI I may over share my life. Since the beginning of this pregnancy I have been getting these terrible pains in my stomach. Almost every night I have had unbearable pains. Pains that make me stay up at night. This only happens from 3 in the morning to about 6 in the morning. After those hours I am o.k. It's the weirdest thing that it only happens between those hours. I have told my doctor about it, she has said that it's because of the amount of iron I am taking. I am taking 3 iron pills a day. Yes, 3!! On my first pregnancy I took my iron pills when I remembered and I was fine...

Baby boy's name

Image
I can't remember if I have mentioned the name we will be using for the baby. First off I just wanted to point out that we went through  2 names for the girls name. First, I came up with the name Erin but after awhile we just were not feeling it.So the last one, that we were pretty sure we were going to use, was Mia. I really liked the name Mia and I liked it even more because it started with another "M". I'm a little happy that we didnt have to use a girl's name only because Megan Emma was always going to be my baby girl's name. O.k so to tell ya'll the name of our little baby boy. The name we will be using is Andrew Eric .  We didn't come up with this name. This baby's name is in honor of my little brother that my mother miscarried. I can't remember when she miscarried him but I do know she knew it was a boy already. She had always said she wanted for us to name one of our kids after the baby and well since I love the name Andrew I decided t...

Our Valentine's day

Image
I know it's pretty late but better late than never right?:) So this Valentine's day we celebrated the night before. We exchanged gifts, he bought us chocolates, flowers, and some books. I have not read any books except for the fallen series. He bought me the beautiful creatures book which between you and me, I didn't really care for those books but since he bought them for me I am now going to read them. It's not too bad, I saw the movie so I guess I should have a head start right? Oh and he also bought me my very own fishing pole. I have never had my own fishing pole. We will be fishing on Spring break, and I cant wait!We havent gone fishing in a long time.   For the Mr. we bought him a memory foam pillow that he has been wanting and I also got him a gift certificate from Amazon. I love Amazon. Afterwards we went to the Longhorns restaurant. It was our first time ever at that restaurant. We had a gift card that we had received during Christmas and we had yet t...

26 Weeks

How far along : 26 Weeks Size of baby: Scallion Total Weight Gain/Loss : +9 Maternity Clothes : Is a must Boy or Girl: Boy Movement: Too much movement. It feels like a little worm just moving along. Anything making you feel queasy or sick: Nothing at all. This department has pretty much vanished. Sleep: My doctor has put me on a caffeine dose. About an hour before I sleep I will drink some kind of caffeine to make me stay awake, yes...It was that bad. What I miss: Bending down like a normal person How I'm feeling :I am feeling super pregnant. Oh gosh and for the past week I have had two charlie horses on my legs and good lord do they effin hurt! I only get them. This past weekend I think I was a little on edge with my husband. Seriously though this is totally sucking ass. Cravings:  None this week Looking forward to: Doing more shopping for baby boy. Oh and my family has also started planning the baby showe...

Megan's birthday party

Image
 We celebrated Megan's birthday last Monday on the day of her birthday. Jaime was pretty much in charge of the whole party, and I just had to show up and help out a little. Due to not being able to help out during the day, Mr. Jaime did most of the work. I wish I had more time to do stuff during the day. Being pregnant is hard, seriously. You get tired and dang this belly is now in the way! Megan had a blast at her party. We were hoping to be at home by 7:00 but we ended up leaving close to 8:00. We got home at about 8:25. It was terrible on my feet. Ugh! The only thing that mattered was that Megan had fun and that she was loving being with her friends and family. After we got home she opened up some present and after she was done, she opened up the best present.

Valentine pictures...at home.

Im obviously not a professional but every year I take valentine's day pictures of my baby girl. How I will put the baby in there is beyond me. Lord, it's going to be so weird having a boy around. I'm so not used to it. It honestly feels weird just saying "Im having a boy" because it still feels surreal.

Celebrate

Image
This past weekend we celebrated Megan's birthday with her aunt Dora. Her aunt Dora,which is my sister, lives in Corpus Christi so she wasn't going to be able to make it to Megan's birthday party the next day due to school and work. So we did a small little celebration at my parents house for her. She had spent the night before there with them. She likes to sleep over there for whatever reason. I don't see it, they are weird people(hi, mom!!) We also had to get some candy and some other things at  Sam's club. It was the first time at Sam's club and it was pretty awesome seeing all the stuff that they had. I got a wireless keyboard, which is pretty cool, if I do say so myself. After we got home we played outside for awhile. The weather has been effin weird in Texas. One day it's hot, the next, it's freezing cold. I hope we are done with the cold already. It has been the coldest winter so far.So anyways, the sun was finally out so we took advanta...

We are having.....

Last week I had a sonogram, this was the sono that I have been waiting for, for a long time. I went with my mom to the sono because Jaime had to work. So when we went in to do the sono the lady began looking at the baby and after a couple of minutes she asked me if I wanted to know the sex of the baby. She was obviously able to see the parts. I told her I didn't want to because I wanted Megan and Jaime here. So I asked her if she can put the name of the gender in an envelope I had brought. She was happy to do it and put some extra photos of the baby. It was so much fun seeing the baby. I cant wait to have this baby already. So we had already agreed on opening that envelope on Megan's birthday. I still need to write a post on her birthday probably get to that till Friday or Saturday. So after Megan was done opening her presents we went ahead and opened the one we had all been waiting for. We told her that if it starts with a G it's a girl, if the word started with...

23 weeks!

How far along: 23 Weeks Size of baby: Large Mango   Total Weight Gain/Loss : +9 Maternity Clothes : Is a must Boy or Girl: We find out next Monday! Ahhhh! Movement: Lots and lots of movement. This little one is constantly moving around. Sometimes I love it and sometimes I wish he/she would let me sleep in peace. I also have a feeling, he/she is getting closer to my ribs. Anything making you feel queasy or sick: Nothing this week. Although I have been taking (tmi alert) constipation pills, and they ended up feeling like I was dying of pain, so I stopped taking them. Well on the last day I took them, I somehow threw up my banana. It was gross.   Sleep: I hate sleep. I end up falling asleep pretty much anywhere and at anytime. It is really cutting in on my family time. I will never forget this pregnant due to all the sleep I need. What I miss: Just being normal. How I'm feeling : Honestly, I'm ready for this baby to co...
