30 Weeks

So I am 30 weeks this week and not to much different. 

Problems: Nothing really new just sore from working out. 

Doctors: Had an appointment yesterday and all was good. The doctor just answered my questions and checked babies heartbeat. My weight gain was better, good blood pressure, measurement of my belly was good too. Nothing to complain about. 

Movements: This baby moves all the time, day or night. The doctor asked about my kick counts and I said he moves lots so I dont have to count. She suggested to be away of a decrease for a long period of time. I feel lots of different movements. There are the power house kicks that are super random and its just one kick and then nothing else. There is the scrap, where he takes and elbow or knee it feels like and goes across my belly, it hurts. There is the rotation, where he seem to wake up and stretch and little then reposition himself. There is the Daddy wake me up move, where Norris starts talking to my belly and he wakes up and moves around, nothing crazy. There is the Alien Baby, where he does a big shift and his butt or head pops out on one side of my belly and looks super weird. Lastly there is the Crazy Man, where he is spazzing out in my belly. I dont even know what he is doing but it feels like arms and legs are moving at the same time and my belly is twitching. 

Carrying: not any different. 

Food: I have decided to eat healthier b/c last week we had In-&-Out for a meal and I decided to actually count up the calories for a cheeseburger, fries, and a milk shake and its CRAZY!!!! Its an entire DAYS worth for me before I was pregnant. I have cut out sugar for the week and surprising I have been doing really well. I thought it would be really hard. By cutting out sugar I mean that I am not eating dessert/ sweet. Natural sugar like fruit and honey are perfectly fine. I am also watching my excess eating of meals. I tend to eat a large amount then is actually necessary. I have been doing great the last 4 days and I am hoping to keep it up, especially for the weekend. 

Exercise: This week I have been doing really good. I feel a little slower this week b/c I haven’t given myself a break like normal but nothing to strenuous. I need to feel sore, its good. I have a good workout partner, my mom, she holds me accountable. I am not going to like it when she goes back to school in a month and our schedule gets all messed up. 

Other thoughts: I am getting pretty anxious to get a baby room set up. I know this is probably not going to happen b/c we have no room and space to have a baby room just a crib. It would be so fun to decorate a room and paint and get it all set up. Oh well, I will have to get my creative juices out by making other things, like a feeding cover and car seat cover. 

Fun Week!

I went to the beach last week with Norris so he could go surfing one morning and not be all alone. He loves his new surfboard. 

Norris is out there somewhere.

The next day I went to the beach again with Vanessa and her kids. It was so fun and I am glad they invited me to go. We layed out and played some football with Ashton.

Duran also proposed to Brittany this week and it has been a long time coming. I am excited for them!!!

This past weekend we went to Lawrence Welk with my parents just for a couple days. It was a fun short trip we played cards, made some food, went to the pool, saw the new Spiderman movie, and played some golf all 18 holes.

This was from a couple of weeks ago! I just forgot to post it. 

So i am 28 weeks now. Wow time is flying now, before everything went really slow. Well 

Problems: Nothing really this week except that the baby decided to wake up right when I go to sleep at night and the other night he would not stop moving. Seriously i felt like i wake up every couple of hours to the baby going crazy, not just jabs or kicks but full on rolls and triple kicks. Oh yeah my right rib hurts still randomly through out the day. Some days its hardly at all and others its painful and stays for a while. I haven't really had heart burn and I ran out of pills that prevent the heartburn and still nothing. That makes me very happy. I am hoping it does not come back. 

Doctors: Next apt is the 18th and I see a different Doctor not the same midwife I have been seeing cause thats all they had open:( I was thinking about calling and seeing if they could switch it. 

Movements: The baby is bigger and strong thats for sure. I like feeling him so active just not really while i am sleeping. Its funny cause he has been hanging out right around my belly button and thats where i feel him move the most. He does this alien roll thing and its very weird to watch. My belly gets all lopsided. 

Carrying: Still feels like I am carrying low. I dont really feel him up in my ribs or anything. Just little kicks hear and there

Food: Still dont like mexican or avocados or asparagus, I cant really get myself to eat asparagus anymore and i love it before just like broccoli 

Exercise: Still trying to exercise everyday but its more of just a class and maybe once or twice a week ill add in weights. I go with my mom in the morning and its nice. 

Planning: Still have to figure out a name, where things are going to fit and go in our room, and the babies colors. I would like some type of theme for his colors and have the baby shower match but that might be far fetched. 

To Do: I have to look up a class still and i have no idea where to start. I have to look up something local thats not really associated with the hospital b/c they classes are to far away to drive and cost the same as classes out here by local providers. Thats what my midwife said at least. I have to figure out where our couch is going to be stored so we can put the crib in the room. Also where to put a rocking chair. 

Well I am excited for this weekend b/c we are going down to San Diego to hang with my parents at a resort and golf and swim and then Brandon Blair is getting married Sat so Serena is coming to town:)  It will be fun to reunite.
