A Baby H Update

Since there are many random things I'd like to mention, I decided to create a more informal entry for these purposes.  Maybe you've heard some of these things from me already, but maybe some will be a surprise- either way, enjoy! : )

  • Baby H has progressed from a flutter to a daily serving, sometimes more, of popcorn popping in my belly!  It's really neat because I can almost always pick up on Baby after dinner, but also at times throughout the day!  A couple of times it's even made me jump a little bit. : ) 
  • DONUTS... over the past week or so, I've developed an intense craving for donuts!!  Now, I don't know if it's truly a craving or if it's just "I'm going to eat three donuts because I can," but wow they are making Mama and Baby happy!  Especially white cream-filled... mmmm. 
  • STEVE TRIED TO PEEK AT OUR 20 WEEK APPOINTMENT.  Come to find out, he's NOT an ultrasound technician, so it left him clueless.  Geesh, what a stinker.
  • I've started to make myself sing in the car... and if you know me, this does NOT come naturally.  However, I figure it's an easy way for Baby H to hear more from me. : )  Although, I think Baby H will have a pretty good grasp on my voice since it gets to listen to me teach all day, too!  
  • My newest class of seniors started applauding me when I told them I was preggers- lol.
  • On another note to our 20 week appointment, I was given an A+++ (yes, triple A plus!) due to my blood levels and baby's development being in all of the optimal ranges. : )  Let's hope Baby H is an overachiever like his/her parents! (Minus the stress related health issues....)
  • Still hatin' on ice cream, but now can drink decaf coffee!
  • The nausea has kicked up again, but I see it's mostly due to hunger, so at night and early AM.  I've been forcing myself to eat more snacks and that seems to help.  
  • We're at Snow Day #7 today, which means I'll officially be working on my due date.  Lord help us.
  • Whoaaaaa, we're halfway there!  (Whoaaaaa, livin' on a prayer : ) )

  1. Oh my goodness I laughed so hard about the "come to find out he's not an ultrasound tech"

    Eating a snack before bed.... or having crackers or a granola bar next to your bed will help the nausea.
