It's definitely a countdown now. 1 more week of having to go into the office but I do have Dr. Appt every Monday and Thursday so our will go quick next week. Her stomach is measuring smaller so that's why I'm going in so much for fetal monitoring. We went to the hospital for a test run and saw the maternity ward. Very swanky. It feels like forever to wait but in 4 weeks or so I'll have a baby and that's a little crazy. I always knew I'd be a mom some day and prayed for so long to get pregnant but it's really real now

My pelvic pain has started to be more consistent. And I'm having moments of rage and anger haha. After every meal I can feel the indigestion building and it's pretty painful. She still seems to be laying across my body with her head pointed to my right pelvic bones. Soon she'll drop lower and my pelvic pain will be unavoidable. Good news is scotty has improved a lot since last week so we're finally entering the slope of him getting better and me getting worse. Everyone thinks she's coming early but I think she's just starting the discomfort early and is going to put me through 5 weeks of hell. She is my child after all

Baby shower was yesterday and it was amazing. Everyone came together and it was a great party. My awards ceremony is Tuesday and then after that it's the Feb countdown!!

32 weeks, Saturday

Although this week was rough physically, the room is painted, the venue is ready, and all the baby shower things are here. Can't wait for next Saturday. I'm dragging scotty out of the house this morning we'll see how this goes

I just spent 24 hours trying to push clay, baseball size poops out. I had to drink salt water, 2 enemas, laxative tea and claw out with my own fingers chunks of poop so that I could poop. My whole body is sore, back muscles and groin muscles pulled. My pelvis and rectum feel heavy when I stand and still feel the need to poop but I'm nervous to. Now I feel like I do when I have the flu but it's just from pushing all yesterday and today. Oh and I "get" to go into work tmrw. #pregnantFUN

I'm almost 31 weeks and today starts the first day of 2017. Happy new year! Scotty has a few norcos and 2 oxy's left and we have to go to UCSD campus in a few days to see the doctor, meet with counselors and figure out childcare options for the baby. Today I've felt restricted, hard to walk around and I'm hungry vs nauseas all day. Ryan us almost moved out and then this week we can clean, paint and get nursery done by this weekend. This Saturday we also have our first and only lamas class. 6 hours, that should be fun. Scotty is on and off having good and bad days. I can't wait till he's better. I need more "taking care of me" going on instead of doing everything. :/

I can feel her move all the time and I can now SEE my belly move when she does. Sometimes it hurts, sometimes it's like someone is pushing my tummy around and then sometimes it feels like there's an alien inside me. All normal. It's 3 days to Christmas and we didn't buy anyone anything. Feels great. :)

Between HG, Starting school, and then surgery it had been since I got pregnant that we'd had sex.... until today. Hallelujah

I have felt so beautiful the past four days. My bump is so cute and I'm skinnier than when I got pregnant. My hair is the longest is ever been and although I'm still sick and need to take Zofran, it is nice to have a few days just to feel like a woman and not gross and fat. Although none of my clothes fit since they are all too big and flowy. I want tight clothes to show my belly. Scotty is doing better the past few days too so that might have something to do with it. He's kissing me and dancing in the kitchen. He's feeling a lot better.

Nov 30th

Well we've been home for 3 weeks now. Today was the best day scotty had felt the whole time. Sleeping a lot better. I'm getting more pregnant by the second. Heartburn, leg cramps, nausea still and she's moving alot.

Even though we were both nauseas and sick all day I still managed to make thanksgiving brrakfast and dinner for just the two of us. Just gotta make so sometimes when you're pregnant

Benign

One word can change your life. Change how you recover from surgery, change how your outlook on life and death. Change your plans and change your determination. Sigh of relief is an understatement. The father of my child did not get cancer he just had some ribs removed. Perspective

Cancer

When his doctor tells him its bone cancer. You're not there with him because you're 6 months pregnant and working from home due to your own difficult medical issues. This is the curveball we never expected to go through in our lives but it happened to us anyways. Scottys surgery was quick and they took 3 of his ribs. Recovery, physical therapy, and being released from the hospital have been the worst things about cancer. The actual tumor is gone but the hardest part is right now trying to live after. I never knew I loved him this much. I never knew I was this strong. I never realized how strong he could be. How short our list is of people who would come anytime, any hour, whether we are feeling too vulnerable to ask for help or not. How we'd look at our friends in a more serious way like you do when one of your group of friends die. You see who are the most important to you. You also have zero fucks to give about anyone else's opinion of you, your life, or how you live it from this day on. This baby I'm growing will know how strong her parents are. She will know the difference between living thankfully. She will know that her mother loves her father and that we will always love each other more than we love her. She will come second to that. She will never have to know two holidays, 2 different homes, and when she grows up and leaves our house we'll have a party and be forever loving each other.

Fuck cancer

Back on my meds since last week I tried to get off and I got sick. This week I came down with a cold. My voice sounds like a strangled dog. But I'm finally seeing physical changes to my body. I can no longer lay flat on my back since she's getting bigger. I still haven't felt her move but I'm sure that's not far off. I'm still getting nervous about zika but we'll just have to be lucky on that front.

I had a dream that the day you were born you had all your teeth, we're as big as a 2 year old, talking and full of freckles. You looked just like your dad and it made me so happy
