Doctor's Appointment Update
So my girl is doing great. She is measuring up to where she is suppost to be and she weighs a whole 3 lbs and 13 oz. so almost at 4 pounds. She's still a tiny thing but the last month is when the babes really put on the pounds so does Mama =/ She is very active and is already head down! I was praying because I really didn't want her breeched. I know they can still turn but it gives me hope every appointment. I did have a ultrasound but the pics arn't that great. Usually I see them great and can make them out but since the Doctor was doing the measurements they are random shots that you are like what is that? Monday night my colostrum came in so hopefully I don't start leaking everywhere anytime soon?! Tuesday I have another appointment for a ultrasound so hopefully I will get some good shots and my girl will be cheesin' for the cam =D Until Tueday XOXO

33 Weeks
It's amazing how fast I feel this pregnancy is going by. I am getting anxious to meet my little Gia. I feel great I don't feel like the heat is too much or swollen or anxious to get her out. Just anxious to meet her. To get to know her and watch her little personality and for Meelah to finally have a bestfriend. Meelah loves to play with kids at the park but sometimes the bigger kids ignore her because she's little =( But soon she will have a playmate that will always be there and who at times she may try to ignore...lol. But I'm excited to see how close they will be <3 I feel so blessed to have been given the opportunity to be Meelah's mother. My heart is overjoyed that God is giving me another gift to treasure. I weigh 137 So that's 1 pound for the week. I try not to go too over board with the sweets so I am trying to eat a lot of fruit to help that need for sweets but sometimes I just can't help it. Although the other day I did eat a whole half of a Watermelon in one sitting by myself =p (Not a small melon either!)I took Meelah to the Park the other day and I WALKED. I think I did good considering we live on a hill. I just felt really sweaty and hot at that last peak to almost being home. I think that will be the last walk to the park til after Gia is born but I was very proud of myself. I honestly can say it's a breeze as far along as I am. I have no complaints (Don't tell Solomon because sometimes I still like to use the I'm pregnant card...hehehe). I'm not complaining because it was worse my first pregnancy but in the middle of the night I get leg cramps in my thighs, calves and feet. I tried eating a banana before bed the other night and for some weird reason I had more cramps than usual =/ The nurse suggested more Calcium. So I will try that (poo I'm not a big milk fan and everyone knows my relationship with cheese) So I guess it's more Ice cream haha jk. Tomorrow I have another Doctor's appointment. So I will keep you updated XOXO from this Mama <3

32 Weeks
So this pregnancy is flying by! Pretty soon I will have 2 beautiful little girls. I am getting exciting just thinking about what Gia will look like. And I am really starting to enjoy being pregnant. I love feeling Gia kick especially since she didn't kick very much at all in the beginning. Now she goes crazy especially at church =)I am starting to use the bathroom everytime I shift positions or get up from sitting or laying down. I am not swollen all over how I was with Meelah. My weight is almost the same as it was with Meelah at 32 weeks.I weighed 136 pounds with Meelah and now with Gia I weigh 135. I'm averaging gaining 2 lbs a week now. I know it is all Gia. I try to sustain from really salty foods, but I still have a sweet tooth for sugar especially chocolate (...Mmmmmm).
I remember the feeling of love when I first had Meelah how instantly my love just was strong and never ending. How could I be so in love with someone I just met? I would do anything for her. Now I'm feeling so blessed to experience that again. That's what gets me past the thought of labor. <3
My hair is growing overnight. I have to sleep with it up now every night because Solomon lays on it or I pull it myself under my own arm. And my nails are so strong and long. These are great benefits of pregnancy =) I know time is getting closer, but I really have no complaints. Everyone always asks, "Are you ready to get that kid out?" and I always answer, "Nope not yet!" Even having a 20 month old and keeping up with her crazy butt this pregnancy hasn't really had a toll on my body yet. This pregnancy gives me hope that I could have another baby and really enjoy being pregnant. Yes everyone I do want another baby one day! I don't know why that sounds so crazy to people. I'm not saying I want to become Octomom!! But children are such a blessing. How ever many God puts on Solomon and my heart. Rather we stop at 3 or how ever many =) Stop acting like 2 kids is a lot. Now With that said I have a Doctors appointment next week so I will keep you all posted.
