baby love: 19 weeks

So far, I love being pregnant.

I love the vivid, strange dreams.

I don't mind the heightened emotions.

I even like the crazy that oozes out of me!

I am not putting up with much lately... no nonsense.

The hormones have definitely given me confidence to say what I think!

My face has more acne than when I was 14,

and the heartburn sets me on fire every night -

but this pregnany has been easy compared to most stories I hear.

 

...and I love talking to and thinking about this baby.
What a blessing.

 

 

Weeks along: 19 weeks

 

Weight gain: 5 pounds

 

Fruit baby: Mango

Current nicknames: Junebug, Madge, Bountiful, Thankful

 

Cravings: Anything that will result in heartburn.

 

Random: I am not sure if I have felt the baby. I keep feeling some movement here and there - not regularly - and I always talk myself out of it... I think it will be more regular and recognizable soon. I can't wait. Sleeping is getting more uncomfortable, and my dreams are starting to include baby themes. The other night I "had the baby" and instead of staying with my little one, I left it at my parent's house (before finding out if it was a boy or girl) and ran to the store to start buying supplies. I guess I need to start preparing! My subconscious is concerned.
