The weeks keep ticking by. 23 now! Almost 24 which seems huge to me for some reason. It's been an interesting week. I was convinced something was wrong because I barely felt baby c. I would feel a few kicks but within a few hours have convinced myself it was in my head. Baby C was definitely active yesterday though and I felt a kick from the outside for the first time. It was beyond the most amazing experience. How is our little munchkin? Let's see what my devices say!
Baby C should be...the size of a banana squash, about 12.5 inches! :) A full foot now! :) Eyes can open and ears, fingernails, & fingerprints are all developed! :) Our baby is starting to gain fat and his/her taste is maturing, along with touch & hearing!
When I used the term insomnia last week I had a feeling I was going to curse myself. I was merely tossing & turning. Not getting good sleep but at least sleeping on & off. Insomnia is back now! The last 3-4 nights I've woken up WIDE Awake a few hours after we go to sleep. I'll stay awake for a few hours, then sleep for a few. I wake up feeling fine which doesn't make since to me. Usually I'd wake up exhausted because I didn't get a full night's sleep. Apparently my body is preparing for baby or something. I actually forced myself to go back to the sleep the first day it happened and I did wake up feeling exhausted. Waaa waaa! :) Oh well, all a learning experience. The heartburn comes & goes but usually isn't bad. Allergies, now that's a different story. They are BAD this week in Arizona & they are kicking my butt. I learned that my old PCM(primary doctor) is BACK! The one who found the problem & started treating it which resulted in "my condition" as my husband calls it. I should go see her for my allergies & I really do want to see her to thank her & to let her know the miracle she helped create. I full heartedly give all my thanks to her. Yes, I worked my ass off eating that special diet & taking all those vitamins/supplements, losing 30 lbs before pregnancy, but if it were not for her I wouldn't have known to have that special diet or to take those pills. She found the problem no other doctor could or would. She was the first one that didn't just tell me "lose weight, that's the problem". For that, this this miracle, I will always be thankful to her. Anyways, I should go see her for my allergies & maybe I will but I just usually think "I can make it without pills". Do I really NEED the allergy pills? Probably! :) It's been bad lately.
Anywho, once again I got carried away with typing. I tend to blabber on at 4-5 in the morning when I can't sleep. Oh well, that's my story, & I'm sticking to it. :) Happy Pregnancy! :)
