Today was our THIRTY week appointment, wow where has the time gone? Seems like just yesterday I was walking in for our ten week appointment for our first ultrasound. Only ten more weeks to go now!!! I've gained a little much *gasp* but the nurse and doctor keep reassuring me its from my water weight that's soaking up my ankles... ugh. I'm not on bed rest *thank god* but she did tell me to keep my feet up as much as I can when I'm not doing anything (ie: laying in bed, laying on the couch, sitting at my desk) and to stick to drinking water more than ever. I've also had major hot flashes lately... great I get to enjoy this for about 14 more weeks, she said they should die off about 4 weeks after labor. Really? Man this sucks.
My major cravings the past week have been Sonic's Chicago Hot Dog... mmmm. And ice cream, but I've always loved ice cream. I haven't had any in two days I'm going through withdrawal! Aside from that no major cravings of any sort... I'm going to put myself on a veggie, fruit, protein diet for the next two weeks and really watch my sodium intake. My BP was fine (112 over 70 I believe) which is reassuring. Guess I'll have to cut out those hashbrowns from McD's lol!!! I haven't been sleeping real well, my hips ache and my belly is just so big now. Oh yeah, yesterday the cashiers at Babies R Us asked me if I'm "carrying twins". Can you believe the nerve?? I wanted to cuss them out on the spot I was so furious and the rest of the night I was depressed and had a mommy melt down.
awe yay! congrats on 30 weeks mamma!!!
