Dreams, baby clothes, kicking and other randoms

So I will not be one of those women who love being pregnant. That is for sure. I'll tell you why I don't love it and I'll try my best not to sound whiny. I was sooo so sick. I couldn't eat and if I did, it came back up. I lost 20 pounds. I didn't have 20 pounds too loose in the first place. I didn't like my husband. I wouldn't even let him sit by me on the couch. Pretty much everything and everyone grossed me out. Luckily that was the first tri and I'm much much happier and healthier now in my second tri. There are still some things I really don't enjoy though. Peeing all.the.time. My poor little bladder. As baby grows so does my belly and insides and it hurts sometimes. I know it's normal but I tend to be a bit paranoid and always think the worst. I'm also having really awful dreams. Rob had to wake me up because I was crying the other night in my sleep and I had such a horrible one this morning I couldn't go back to sleep and had a hard time when Rob left for work. Pregnancy dreams= WAY too real. There is one thing I love about being preggers though and it's feeling baby boy move. He is very active and of course his play time is just as mama is falling asleep at night. I love it though. Rob got to feel it last night. He was so excited!! Keep moving sweet boy!! I love it!! And of course, I do love knowing that my son is growing inside me. I love knowing that I am going to be his mom.
So baby boy's (let call him bb) closet is already filling up. As soon as we found out he was a boy we went over to bell square and bought some really cute outfits and sleepers. My mom also went out and bought him a TON of clothes as well. They look so cute hanging up in his closet! I go look at them a lot during the day. So cute!!
Will I ever get used to feeling him move? Every time I feel it I get so excited. I just love it. Lately the movements have been stronger and a little higher up then usual.
In other random new, Rob and I got called to be the bear den leaders for cub scouts! I know absolutely nothing about scouts but I'm excited! I think it will be a fun thing for us to do together.
Well that's all for now. This mama is ready for bed!

  1. You know, I had a rough time when I was pregnant. Now, 11 weeks after giving birth... I'm kinda wishing to be pregnant again. My husband on the other hand says, "YIKES!" Hmph.

    Growing a baby in your tummy is such a miracle and when you feel those little love-kicks & pokes, it's all worth it.

  2. yeah, I'm one of those who loved being pg but also realize I'm in the minority. And peeing only gets worse. Sorry but true. I didn't like that part esp at 7-8+ months when getting in/out of bed is a chore to begin with. And I always felt like there was a bowling ball between my legs about to drop! lol! Anyway, sorry you had a rough go to start but glad to hear things are improving. I never got used to the kicks but this is good. They were always a surprise and a joy. So glad you're feeling your active baby so early (took me awhile before I knew what I was feeling was Caleb moving). I can't wait to see your bundle of joy and meet him and hold him! He's such a special loved baby already! And hee hee! Love that you're keeping bb's name a secret. Personally, I loved that part because it drove my family nuts not knowing his name!!!
