Pregnancy Update
How far along? 36+6
Total weight gain/loss: I don't think I've gained any since last week. So down 9kg since pre-preg weight
Maternity clothes? Yes. Though they are baggy on my thighs and ass 😔 I won't buy any new ones in a smaller size though. This pregnancy might be over before they arrived 😂
Skin changes? Yes it's weird but my foundation doesn't work on me anymore. It just cakes as soon as it touches me. Also the pores on my nose have gotten HUGE!
Sleep: Issues with sleeping is probably my biggest pregnancy complain. I just want one (1) good night sleep before the baby arrives.
Best moment this week: My boyfriend's baby shower 😂 It was a success and he was so happy!
Lowest moment this week: Weird dreams where I stress about money. We are not having financial issues. So I'm not sure why I dream about it all the time
Movement: YES! I am beyond tired of hiccups. That is okay to say, right?
Food cravings: For one of the first times this pregnancy I had cravings for cake and chocolate and sweets! I ended up eating fresh raspberries and peas though and I was so proud(yay me!) It was a one-day thing. Today I'm back to not really caring for food unless it's melon
Food aversions: Well the smell of melted cheese really got to me yesterday.
Morning sickness/Nausea: If I eat something late in the evening, I'll be nauseated in the morning. Also, night time heartburn y'all ❤️🔥
Something I physically couldn’t do: Stay awake this morning! I get up to drive my boyfriend to work and it's usually nice to have a 'job' like that. But not this morning. I did have a horrible night, so that might be why.
Leakage: It's just yellow, sticky milk 24/7 now. But mostly in the night. Yesterday I woke up in the middle of the night and my boob was stuck to Renés back. That was unexpected. I didn't tell him 😂
Something I bought: A new S'well bottle (gotta catch them all) and the Urban Decay Heat pallet and eyeliner 😍... oh for the baby?? Nothing 😂
Any labor signs or new weird pains?: Well I get semi regular BH lasting for about 4 hours at a time. Also I have a lot of menstruation like cramps.
Any swelling? Still nothing! It's perfect!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! From tomorrow and the next 5 weeks I'm cleared to give birth at home. We have everything ready now. Part of me really wants to give birth soon, but another part of me wants to wait for as long as possible, so I'll have a longer maternity leave and can spend more of the summer next year with my daughter 😂 'The maternity leave clock' won't start ticking before I give birth.
