My only concern was so mild cramping that I experienced yesterday while facing the madness at the mall. The cramps were subtle, but enough for me to notice. They came and went, and then later in the afternoon I was perfect. The first question my midwife asked me was how much water had I drank at that point yesterday. I am normally really good with the whole water thing; I carry a bottle with me everywhere and drink even when I do not want it. I was at the mall mid morning yesterday, and I had not had anything since my OJ at breakfast. She said that my body (aka the baby) was telling me to drink; I will cramp and contract because of the lack of water. Needless to say, once I ate lunch and had several glasses of water, I was perfect! Guess I will keep that water bottle with me at all times! I have never been much of a water drinker, but that has changed!
We will be rather busy the next 3 days, as I am sure everyone else is! Just imagine our holiday seasons with a little one in the future! Matt's parents and sister will be coming over this evening, so we are super excited to be able to spend some fun, quality time with them! I am trying to not eat everything in my sight during this time, although that can be rather difficult!
Cravings: of all things....SALAD! I am not complaining! That is a really good craving to have! I really crave the vinaigrette dressings!
Weight gain: 3 pounds since last appt in Nov, so about 6 pounds total (I was surprised!)
New purchases: 2 bras (much needed...I am bigger everywhere!), dress pants with no buttons or zippers (from my favorite store New York and Company), roomier shirts for the expanding waistline
Mood swings: oh yes, I have seen them this week! Poor Matt just has to deal with me! The smallest things will send me over the edge!
Sleeping: I can't seem to get enough of this! I am hoping to get a nap in every day of the next 3 busy days so that I can function and have more fun!
