Eat...Let's just say I am happily eating my way through this pregnancy. I am hungry all the time. Like truly ALL THE TIME. I'm up a hefty 17 lbs and am now laying off my beloved cocoa puffs ;) My favorite foods lately are PBJs, bagels with cream cheese and toast with butter. So basically what I'm saying is, "Hello, my name is Mandy and I am a pregnant carbaholic."
Sleep...Can't complain here. My head is ready to hit the pillow for a good nap or night's sleep at any moment in the day. I love my sleep. Finding that the only position that's comfortable is my left side. Normally I like to sleep in a variety of positions so my left side is getting old fast!
Health...I recently found out that I am anemic, so now I'm taking iron supplements daily. My doctor tested my iron after my 24 week appointment because I have been so short of breath (like panting when I'm sitting on the couch). I've been taking iron for about a week now and it really seems to be helping. Otherwise the only thing that really reminds me that I am pregnant is the huge belly I am growing :) I am still taking diclegis at night and have no plans to quit! I love being nauseas free :) Still have sciatic nerve pain on my left side...
Life...We just returned from a family vacation to Myrtle Beach and I think I survived well for being a big ole pregnant lady :) We ate SO much yummy food and I am scared to death to step on a scale (as in I refuse to do so until I am forced at my next appointment haha). Gracen is fully potty trained so that means for the first time in over 4 years we are a diaper free family! Planning to enjoy it now cause we all know it won't last long ;) Little guy should be here in about 90 days. Shew, 90 days seems like a long time at the rate I'm growing ;))))
Can't wait to snuggle this little man!
