30 week check-in
baby girl and i are doing great!
i finally hit 188 lbs. this is significant because it was my wedding weight. pretty proud to say that i hit the same weight at 30 weeks pregnant. i only gained 3 lbs this month, and doc says i'm doing great with managing that. last time around i couldn't stand to eat salad or chicken and ate a ton of processed foods. this time i have a salad for lunch about 3 times per week and have pretty much lost my taste for processed foods and diet soda. sure i've had my fair share of ice cream and oreos, but all in moderation.
here are a few more comparisons between 1st and 2nd pregnancy...
1st: "are you excited?"
2nd: "is ethan excited?"
1st: hips hurt so badly i couldn't sleep
2nd: sleeping like a rock
1st: carried baby up so high it was hard to take a deep breath. baby also had lots of hiccups.
2nd: carrying baby so low i can barely make the morning drive without pulling over at a rest stop
1st: read the books and mostly followed the rules
2nd: not reading more that weekly vegetable size comparison (we're currently at cabbage). breaking the rules a bit with some sushi and a glass of wine once in a while. well, just breaking the american rules. i prefer to follow asian and european guidelines when it comes to food & drink.
1st: 50% excited/50% nervous
2nd: 90% excited/10% nervous
nine weeks to go if i schedule c-section (still a little up in the air, but likely will go that route). ready to get this show on the road!
