31 weeks 4 days: appointment

 Okay, so I did not copy and paste this post from my 28 weeks blog! but….. I AM OVER BEING PREGNANT!  I am done soaking in the moments…the only moments soaking in are showing up on the scale.  Now I feel like a biggest loser contestant when I go to the doctor…"really?  how does a person gain that much weight in a day?!"  I mean, maybe chuggin a whole 2 liter of root beer in less than 5 hours MIGHT put on the pounds…but I was in the zone.
Seriously, does anyone remember a time when I wasn't pregnant or had a baby attached to me????   Cuz I don't!  (ryan is going to read this and shake his head cuz he hears it everyday)

So if you missed the slight hint above, I haven't had a great last couple of weeks.  I thought being pregnant for the 3rd time would mean it was easier…I am a seasoned pro at this baby making thing.  But I really feel horrible.  I have a constant headache, my eye twitches, chest pains, vomiting, joint pain and swelling. I made sure to tell my doctor what was going on and she was concerned about the headaches and vomiting.

The twitching eye apparently is common in pregnancy…the chest pains are my ribs expanding to make room form babe, the joint pain is me doing too much moving and my joints relaxing.

The vomiting and headaches were concerning so she took some blood and wants to see me back in a week, or if I start to feel worse come in asap.  She told me to drink some tea for the head aches and to cut back on sugar and salt (I guess no more root beer)   and to make sure to stay hydrated.


Here is a picture of the bump…no face, my eye was twitching while I took the pic, so I looked a little weird.

Negative Nancy: I feel sick and tired: vomiting and headaches

Positive Polly: really do I have to???  I suppose the weather has been nice and I have a fabulous tan.

Waistline:  I offically feel like a cow, my feet, legs and ankles have reached the point of no return

Cravings: ROOT BEER {!WUTWUT!}  

What I miss: I miss feeling comfortable and having energy, the way I use to look, you know when I am not pregnant.

What I am looking foreword to: the day the doctor says "let's just induce you today"  cuz I know it's going to happen!

Ryan: He is currently going with the flow, trying to keep me happy.   

Riley and Tate- Riley decided he wants to draw pictures of our family with only 4 people in it.  He says "I don't want a baby" ALL OF A SUDDEN, he wants to move his bunk bed into Blakely's blue room.  I am going to paint his room soon, so hopefully that will change his mind. Tate still uses my belly as a drum
