Oh the weight

So in about a week I will start my third trimester. All in all, I would have to say that my pregnancy has been relatively easy in comparison to others I know. I experienced some morning sickness and fatigue but that is all in the past. The biggest struggles are not being able to play sports, rough housing with my husband, and not being able to do daily things like lug around the wheel barrow, help Ad move things, or work on the house (e.g. Painting etc..). I haven't been watching my weight as much as I should and will hear about it this Friday from my Doctor. To this day, I have gained approximately 18 lbs. The Dr said, I should not exceed 27. This month has been the hardest and it is probably because I am so house ridden that I have been cooking up a storm. I have gained 6 lbs this week alone. I will try to watch it a little before I see the Doc. I will also be getting my results for the glucose testing. Hopefully, all is well.

18 weeks

So we had our 18 week ultra sound and keeping with family tradition.. It's a girl!!
We were a bit disappointed at first because we really wanted a boy but after feeling a bit ashamed, we got over it. We shall name her ... Isabella.

Sooo Sorry.

First would like to apologize for not posting since July. Since then I have been quite busy. Working full time, dealing with lay offs from my work, going to school and finding out that I am pregnant. It has not been easy. Here's the story, I have been having problems with my back so I went in to see a specialist, he suggested and MRI. He asked if there was a possibility I could be pregnant.. I said "no" but since I was a few days late, I said I would check. It turns out.. I was pregnant. Of course, Ad did not believe the generic test I had bought...so three test later and a doctors appointment confirmed it. Since then life has been a bit tougher, morning sickness, nausea, and he tiredness. Who would've thought it would be so debilitating. I kept thinking to myself, how do people do this more than once.
