It’s been quite some time since I’ve posted an update on my little jalapeño. But here we are, 1 week away from delivery. He’s growing like a weed and so am I!

He’s getting so big and I’m just ready for April already. Side note, Braxton Hicks have officially begun

My little jalepeno is...

A boy 💙💙💙💙💙

12 weeks & 5 days

I'm not feeling too great lately. I toss and turn and toss and turn some more, all night long. I'm up and down almost every hour to pee. My hips ache, along with the constant pains in my back. Oh, have I mentioned sciatic nerve pain yet? The baby seems to lay right on top of that nerve with its whole whopping 0.42oz and somehow still manages to trigger the nerve to shoot excruciating pain down my leg and up my back.

Basically, I'm not sleeping anymore.

BUT, I have found my appetite again! We have gained a whole 13lbs in our almost thirteen week journey! Which means a pound a week. Except I gained 7lbs in the last 4 weeks according to the doctor. Apparently that's frowned upon. Hmm, Who knew that gaining weight in pregnancy would be frowned upon?

My toddler is set on a baby sister. I'm planning on getting a 4D ultrasound in a few weeks, outside of our normal doctor, to reveal the gender of baby!! I'm super excited. I haven't told my partner just yet. I'm hoping I can keep my big mouth shut long enough to just surprise her and everyone else.

Holy belly

[itsssmayhem]

Welcome back nausea and hot flashes. We've hit twelve weeks and I haven't had nausea in about 3/4 weeks. I was starting to getting too comfortable I guess. My back and hips hurt so bad. All the time. I don't ever seem to get a break with the pain and discomfort. My belly is getting bigger by the day. I'm ready to find out what I'm having this time.

I have never had so much physical discomfort in my back. They weren't joking when they said your third baby is harder than the first two.
