Baby Journaling

I am still going private but I haven't had the chance to make it that way and I don't want to do it right now. I want to write a few things down before I forget. I am warning you that this is boring and probably not fun for anyone to read but I want to remember. I am currently 33 weeks tomorrow and am counting down the days (okay, pretty much the hours) till I get to meet this little boy. I am okay being uncomfortable and pregnant, I just can't wait until I get to see him and know that he is healthy. I am extremely paranoid and it will be so nice to be able to physically see him every time I worry. I feel like at this point I am reverting back to the first trimester. I am super tired and nauseated thanks to acid reflux. I am feeling huge and can't sleep since I am used to sleeping on my stomach before this baby and can't wait until I can do that again (although it might be a while due to breastfeeding) I constantly want anything made from potatoes, which I craved everyday during the first trimester. I am in no way trying to complain. This little man has made his home in the same place. His feet are constantly in my right rib cage and his head is so low and I swear he either is punching or head butting my left pelvic bone. He gets hiccups a few times a day which are very strong and consistent. We are leaning towards the name Jamison Jeffrey but we aren't sure. I love it because we named our first little boy we lost James and so it includes that but isn't the same. I am a little hesitant because I really don't want anyone to call him James. We'll see. We also would call him "JJ" for short. The nursery is nearly finished. We just need a few more accents on the wall and once I name him I will add his name on the wall. I feel like 7 weeks is so far but so close. It depends on the day and how crazy I feel. I have my first of three baby showers tomorrow and I am super excited. I feel incredibly blessed to be surrounded by people that are so happy and supportive of us and this little baby.

  1. I'm so excited for you Summer!! You really will be an amazing mom. And I just want to say that it is perfectly ok to complain about the discomforts of pregnancy. It doesn't make you any less grateful to have that little one in there, but sometimes it's not always peaches and cream!! And it will be no different when he's here!! You'll have good days and bad, and you don't have to feel guilty for the days when you want to pull your hair out or lock yourself in the bathroom for a few minutes!! Cuz every mom has felt the same way!! And any woman who says they enjoyed EVERY second of pregnancy is either lying or crazy!!
