Braxton-Hicks contractions

 Hey there big boy,

 

 

 The other day for the last two days I was cramping.  I’m like it's to soon to have this right?  Wrong I’ve read that in your 23 week you can get Braxton-Hicks.  This is going into my theory of me being two weeks ahead of the game. (Yes)  I’m like why am I cramping?  Did I do to much today?  I just laid around the second day and had daddy pray over me.  In my mind I kinda knew what was happening.  I’m going to need more pray when it comes to the real thing!  LOL  I’m also need to do  more walking so on my lunch break I’ll just go to the mall and walk.

 One LOVE….

EATING

 

My Anointed one...

  Okay we are eating weird again.  I put celery , tomatoes , one red apple , carrots , and fiber yogurt in the juicer last night.  It was a really good and healthy smoothie snack.  Then after a 25 minute work out I had a p and j sandwich with sour cream and onions chips. (Don’t ask)  It was really good!  After all of that I was full and ready for bed.  So today I read that chocolate especially dark is good for pregnant women.  Why did they tell me that because I wanted one of those dark chocolate chip cookies for the cafeteria really bad yesterday!  So I may go down there today and get one.  I hope not because I have to maintain my weight.  I have a goal only the baby grows from here on out.  I don’t want another inch to grow on my butt , thighs , or arms from here on out.

 Then I look on fit and pregnant they have this skinny 7 months pregnant women running.  I’m like your soooo not real.  I’m doing yoga and light weight aerobics and still don’t look like that.  So I guess I need to up my game and go for a jog!?  I seriously doubt it but it was a good thought.  RIGHT?  I mean how in the heck is she running with back pain , bigger breast , and swollen feet? 

 Well I can tell you are getting bigger.  Your daddy says I look pregnant now!  He also said if I wasn’t pregnant and just gaining weight like this he would go to the altar and pray to God.  Thanks baby!  I just believe he can’t handle all of this sexiness... haha   Even though I do work out and try to eat right I think I still look good for a Prego.  But anyhow enough about my outer beauty.  I’ve been repenting to God about my inner beauty.  It’s hard not to think ugly when you get so frustrated so easily.  I was in the store and couldn’t find your father and went from 0 to 10 in seconds.  I guess because I didn’t want to be there and the stuff I was carrying was heavy.  On top of all of that he wouldn’t answer the cell.  I’m like God we have to watch that.  To be pissed over something like that is crazy right?  So I’m like it’s time to spend more time in the word.  But the Lord is being patience with me , still blessing me , and giving me grace.  So with that love I’m thankful!

They say online that if I want you to eat right I need to do it myself.  So I hope you enjoy the vegetables and fruit juice I'm making for ya!  Keep on grow healthy baby Love.  And also in the Spirit.  I LUV U. .. 

 One Love…

 

 Week 21: Open Wide

At about seven inches in length and almost 11 ounces in weight, your baby is about the size of a large banana.

By now, your baby swallows at least several ounces of amniotic fluid each day — not only for hydration and nutrition, but also to practice swallowing and digesting — skills your baby will need as soon as he or she arrives in your arms. And keep this in mind: The taste of the amniotic fluid differs from day to day depending on what you've eaten (spicy enchilada one day, sweet carrots another). And that smorgasbord of tastes won't be lost on your baby. That's because your little one has very developed taste buds already. In fact, researchers have noted that babies who were exposed to certain tastes in utero via the amniotic fluid were more eager to eat foods with that same taste after birth. Want your baby to eat his or her broccoli later? Eat yours now!

Your baby still has a great deal of room in your womb — though like anyone who lives in one space for a long time, this tenant will soon begin to feel cramped. Until those uterine walls start closing in, however, there's plenty of space for twisting, turning, and even an occasional somersault (so that's what you were feeling last night!).

With all that belly dancing going on, it's hard to believe your baby gets any sleep at all. But believe it or not, your fetus sleeps as much as a newborn, perhaps 12 to 14 hours per day! (Now if only you could get some sleep!)

I'm a MOO Cow!

 

 

My love...

Okay I LOOK PREGO BIG TIME.  I mean when did that happen!?  It is like one minute people couldn’t really tell I was pregnant now they are reaching for the stomach.  They know the code I don’t know you like that so don’t touch me.  WHY do they do that?  I don’t go up to  people I really don’t know and touch them.  And the bigger I get the more they say , “Come here let me see you , you look so CUTTEE”!  I just tell them to grow up!  I’m sexy not cute.  I don’t care how prego I look I’m bringing sexy back..  OKAY…  But on to bigger things.  I know that your coming in August and not September.  I just know it!  Plus I feel 6 months.  I don’t know how much more of this I can take anyway.  I love you kid but I’m sooo ready for my body back.  So I want look like a MOO Cow any more. (but a sexy one)

One Love...

 

 

 FYI:  ***This is a warning*** Don't tell me how big I'm getting!  This is the only warning your getting!

Just rabbling...

Hey BABy love!

 Mommy and daddy brought your first outfit over the weekend.  Boy you know yo mama knows fashion right.  You have the hat that matches the bib that goes with the jump suit and the sandals!  You are going to be pimping with that summer outfit!  Mommy had a bad stomach virus yesterday but I’m cool now.  Back to the regular eating. (Yeah)  I’ve been juicing too!  I haven’t been eating enough vegetables and fruit so this is good for us.  I just put the stuff in the juicer and bam my four to five servings of good foods. 

 Me and daddy went to go look at houses and we saw a nice one for us.  I’m just believing by faith and not by sight that we can get it before you come.  That is a big old plus so we want have to deal with apartments anymore.  The last place we look at is really nice.  It’s two stories with my garden jet tub, a play room for daddy, and a little park for you.  It is also real close to our family.  So we are just going to keep on believe in God to do a power work on this issue.  After we look at the house we went to Nano’s house and your Aunts surrounded me and started touching mama’s tummy.  They were trying to feel you move but only I get that pleasure right now.  They did say I was getting big. (Thanks Danielle)  I love hearing how big we are getting. LOL  O yeah before I forget I had another dream about you.  It was different because I was changing you.  Boy poop was every where.  But it reminded me to put a diaper diposal on the list....

 One LOVe…
