week 21




one week over half way! i went to a funeral today and saw my dad and a lot of people i grew up with, my dad hadn't seen me since i called him on fathers day to tell him the good news and he was pretty shocked by the big bump :).
my backs starting to really give me hell this week, and my right leg keeps getting really cramped up, but on the plus side we finally found maternity jeans, from jeans west- they look like real jeans and make me feel a tad more normal, its nice just to have that comfort, and they feel like I'm wearing track pants! I want to live in them and never wear anything else ever its nice to have found a store that stocks cloths for people who arent in their forties having children, but im sure even if someone tried them on and they were quite a bit older than me and having a baby they would feel just as good in them :).
Im getting to the point were i get the urge to post things about being pregnant in my face book status, i know that sounds lame but sometimes you just want to share whats really happening in your life though im sure i would regret it if i did, and my partner Kale wouldnt like it too much oh well.

baby facts this week

Baby is about 360 grams in weight, its about the size of a banana (crown to rump), its tiny tooth buds are beginning to form in the gums

Week 20


On Wednesday i had my midwife visit, every things getting to be pretty routine now, i go in and get my blood pressure checked, pee in a cup and get my protein and sugar levels checked. this pregnancy has been a breeze so far n comparison to some of my friends pregnancies. I've been so lucky to not have to deal with reflux or forever lasting morning sickness, as Ive heard some horror stories about people being hospitalized over things like that. its now imposible to hide the fact that i am pregnant, so im hoping my partner tells his other friends soon but at least we have told most of the important people in our lives so far.
I started sleeping with a pillow under my back and one between my legs, which has made life way more comfortable and my partner has been really good at listening to me winge and moan about the little aches and pains.

Baby facts

baby is anywhere between 13 and 16 cms long, its kicks and jiggles are getting way stronger!

week 19




KALE FELT IT HICCUP!!!
OK i know that i may be getting overly excited, but its pretty much the coolest thing in the whole wide world that i can now share this with him in a more complete way :).

week 18



Lots of kicking and moving around, seems as though this wee one gets the hiccups almost every single day, which is really cute to feel when you've forgotten for a minute that your pregnant
