On Christmas day I was 35 weeks and 5 days and my niece was 33 weeks. As of right now I am currently 36 weeks 5 days.  and baby Silas can be born anytime. Even though his due date is supposedly not until the 24th of this month, I have this nagging feeling that the doctors actually got the due date wrong and hes going to be here way before the 24th. 

At my last appointment the doctor was a bit concerned because we were measuring larger than what we were supposed to be, which either means Silas is going to be a big baby or we are farther along than what they say. I'm going with the later. and expect him to be born within the next week or two. I'm already having the annoying Braxton hicks that are starting to get stronger. and all the other symptoms that seem to pop up meaning that labor is near.  So we shall see what happens within the next week or so if Silas is born or not. 

until next time,

Today we are 32 weeks and 6 days. So we are officially 8 months along. oh my goodness. Only one more month to go...supposedly. I have a strange feeling Silas might just come a bit earlier than January 24th. We shall see if he is going to be an early bird or late bloomer. We had one of our bi-weekly check ups today and Silas had the hiccups. It was actually a really weird feeling that I hadn't felt yet which was really cool. I feel all of his kicks and all of his little tumbles (summer salts). So it was really neat to get a new feeling of movement. 

The only bothersome pregnancy symptom we have right now is major heartburn. and it always happens at night when I'm trying to sleep. Nothing is worse then being woken up in the middle of the night and feeling like your chest is on fire. Not fun. At all.

And the one thing I really miss the most while being pregnant is being able to wear jeans. Oh how I miss them. I mean I love yoga pants and leggings but I sure do miss my jeans. Its so sad they are sitting in my dresser all folded up and not being worn. I even miss my "fat jeans" ( you know the ones that you wear when you're bloated and feeling just fat). Yea I even miss those ones. Sigh. Only a month or so to go and then maybe, just maybe I can wear my favorite jeans again. Sigh. 

Laters my dears,

Today we had our 20 week ultra sound and we found out that we are having a boy. I was a little disappointed at first because I really wanted a girl, but then I got it over it. I mean sure I wont be able to have tea parties and play dress up but I'll get to play with light sabers and dragons and teach him all about baseball and football. I cant wait till January when he's born and I get to hold him. 

So far my pregnancy has been a bit tough with all the morning sickness, but I'm hoping that now that we are passed the 20 week mark it will go away and I can actually start enjoying being pregnant. The only thing I've really hated about being pregnant so far is the morning sickness and the fact that my clothes don't fit anymore. That's the thing i really really hate the most, clothes not fitting anymore. 

Well my stomach is growling so I suppose the little one is hungry so i should go feed him and take another bathroom break. oh the joys of being pregnant.
