[…]and L/XL for pre-pregnancy sizes 8-14. You can also get yoga pants and for the daddy to be…[bump] daddy tees!
The kiss my [bump] vee that I received is made of an extra soft and stretch shirt designed to show off that gorgeous bump. It is made from 100% combed cotton fine jersey material. With the 3″ side vents, it is really breathable. This shirt is a charcoal color with sky blue printing. And…they are made in the USA!
The first thing I will tell you is that this shirt arrived just in time. Seriously, not a moment too soon. You see, there was a delay in shipping, and when it shipped out, I was worried I wouldn’t get it in time, and rightfully so. I stalk the mail carrier, and we were past our due date. We had an appointment scheduled and when I was getting ready to leave for the appointment, I had packed up my hospital bag because I was having quite a few strong contractions. The mail showed up just as I was getting ready to leave for the appointment, so I put the shirt on right away, certain that this was the last day of this pregnancy. The first thing I noticed was how soft it was. This is one of the silkiest feeling shirts I have ever worn, I loved it! The only thing that I didn’t like about it was that it wasn’t quite long enough to cover my big old belly. I was huge with this pregnancy and it stuck all out in front so finding shirts that covered my entire belly wasn’t easy. My belly played peekaboo out the bottom of the shirt all day long.
At our appointment, I had tons of comments on this shirt – everybody loved it, especially the baby under manufacturing process part.
This is a great, very breathable, comfortable shirt. I do wish it was a bit longer, but I would love to have some more of these shirts. Ready to check out the other fun slogans and get your own?

I like comparing my baby to the fresh produce for size, but it’s telling me large banana again. I guess it depends on where you are looking. Either way, this baby is definitely in there and definitely getting bigger.
I realized just now that I talked about how cute the baby is in the ultrasound picture and forgot to include the picture, so here it is. My little love bug. Today I got a rather disturbing phone call, at least at first. I saw the clinic number on my phone and was nervous to even answer it. I hadn’t had any tests done, no bloodworm or anything. I didn’t have an appointment scheduled yet, so I knew it had to be about the ultrasound which really worried me. As I mentioned in this post, the tech was having a difficult time getting a good view of the heart chambers. We had a different tech than the ones I have had throughout the other pregnancies and our first one for this baby, and I was bummed. I really love Connie, she always wears a smile and tells you about what she is looking at. This tech didn’t say much at all and stopped to write notes which made me nervous. As it turns out, the reason for the phone call was because the doctor who looked over the ultrasound pictures wasn’t satisfied with the picture of the heart chambers. While she didn’t see a problem or anything to cause any concern, she wanted to request a follow up ultrasound to see if they could get a better picture. They recommend a level II ultrasound because of my age and the incomplete heart views. Ugh, come on, I’m only 35!!!!! Whatever though, they are allowing me options and I choose to see my friend Connie, our regular tech who is amazing and awesome and all of that stuff. So next week I will head back in and get some more images. Maybe she will do what she usually does and give me a short video of baby moving. It’s always so fun to watch those. So this week, baby is up to some new tricks. Using those taste buds. Baby will be able to get a taste of what I’m eating now. Better add in some more variety, I’ve been stuck in a food rut. I want nothing, but am hungry!
Tonight this baby was doing something, and it felt like a weird pulsating up by my rib cage. I’ve never really felt that with baby before. It was weird. What to expect says, “I may notice some stretch marks starting to appear.” Well, not sure I’ve noticed any new ones, but the old ones are still there looking fantastic as ever. Back when I was 10, I had my appendix out. The scar is horrible and sunken in. It was itching a bunch tonight so I looked at it, and it is doing the same thing it did before. That ugly dark blue bruise looking thing. The scar seems to get it’s own stretch mark. I remember thinking with Maggie that it looked and felt like the scar was just going to rip open.
Spill the beans, what is your worst pregnancy […]
If you missed it, I told you all about finding out about this pregnancy here. I remember writing posts each week throughout Charlie’s pregnancy, and am excited to do it all again. Soon, I’ll write the post where I tell you how my blog got me pregnant!
How I’m feeling So far, I haven’t felt horrible. There are good days and bad days, although now, more good days. The nausea isn’t nonstop anymore, and it’s getting easier to eat dinner instead of gag at the very thought of having to eat or feed the kids. I’ve only actually thrown up twice now, so it could definitely be worse. I’m still pretty tired, but not completely exhausted. I have days here and there where my hips hurt so much that attempting to move/stand up/walk is painful and I feel like my bones will break. I remember quite clearly, this same feeling started after Charlie’s delivery. I haven’t been nearly as active as I would like since then, so I”m guessing this is only going to get worse. On my must get to it list – my prenatal yoga video. I’m hoping that helps at least a little bit.
I spend a lot of days not feeling pregnant at all. If I don’t feel sick, I just don’t feel pregnant. I have noticed that my belly is growing a bit. I just plain feel fat. My stomach isn’t all hard as it grows like it was with the first two {I’ll assume that is the fat that has somehow accumulated since having children, haha}. But, today, I started to feel a little better about that. I apparently don’t just look fat, I do look pregnant. We were garage sale-ing today and a few different people commented, and then a family member at a funeral that didn’t know that I was pregnant prior to seeing me. I’m not sure if it all just means I’m huge or just that it is obvious.
Best of all – last night I felt baby moving. I had felt both of my kiddos by this point, so I’ve been waiting for it. And it wasn’t just one movement I felt. It felt like a dance party going on. I had the opportunity to just sit still for a little bit, so I”m wondering if I was just finally able to notice it because I wasn’t doing a hundred other things.
What baby is doing Baby is about the size of an apple or orange. This little one is now about 4 inches long from crown to rump, and tipping the weight scale at about 2 1/2 ounces. Baby can move amniotic fluid through his or her nose and upper respiratory tract, helping the air sacs in the lungs to develop. My baby’s legs are longer than the arms now, and baby can move all of his or her joints and limbs. Even though the eyelids are still shut, baby can sense light. Also joining the team are taste buds!
What’s next?
We have our 16 week checkup on Friday. I’m super bummed because my doctor is on vacation that week {the nerve of her to do such a thing and not check with me first!}. I wanted to schedule around that, but I couldn’t find a date/time that worked for me. We opt out of any optional testing, so unless there is a problem, nothing but heartbeat checks until our ultrasound next month.
I’m also pretty sure I want to have my photographer who is amazing photograph the birth. It will take some doing to get John on board with this, but I think it would be awesome. With Maggie there were quite a few pictures, but with Charlie, nobody really took any.
Are you pregnant right now? When are you due? Did you have a birth photographer present during delivery? Would you do it […]
[…]creepy.
So if you have an idea what my TMI symptom is all about, let me know!
***Update: I did go to the doctor today. I have varicose veins in my lady parts. The doctor found me entertaining. Let’s face it…you need a sense of humor when the doctor is checking out your lady parts and your 3 year old is sitting there going….”Is she putting something in your vagina?” […]
I’m not sure I have much to update about this week, although I’m writing the post earlier in the week than usual, so I suppose that could change. Last Thursday Maggie came down with a stomach bug and spent a few hours sick. Then that night, Charlie got sick. He got really sick, poor guy. Saturday he was really sick too, and then, lucky me, I got the bug on Sunday. I really only felt awful for a few hours in the morning and evening, otherwise, I was alright which I’m very thankful for. At least it didn’t involve hours of throwing up because I already went through that back in June. It sucked. I *think* that we are all better now, hopefully there are no relapses from Charlie man. Because Maggie got sick, I ended up not being able to go to softball last Thursday and was super bummed about it, but my babies first. Looking forward to playing on Thursday, it is our last game of the season. This baby is moving around a bit less than he or she had been, so we must be getting close. I go in for my 38 week appointment later this week so we will see how things are doing. John had predicted September 30th for the due date and was wrong.
We had our maternity pictures taken last week and will be getting them back soon. I’m super excited to see them all. But here are a few of the shots for a sneak peak. We STILL don’t have a boys name picked out, so we should probably figure that out. Both Maggie and Charlie were born 4 days past their due date.
After my appointment today, my doctor thinks I will still be pregnant at this time next week. Baby is at a +2, I’m 30% effaced, and dilated to a little more than a 1, but not a 2.
When do you predict our baby will arrive? Boy or […]
So, I missed posting an update last week again. It was kind of a crazy week around here. That’s for sure. Getting ready for Maggie’s 4th birthday party was a very big deal. We planned it a month ahead of time so that there was no way that baby’s arrival would interfere with her birthday party {baby is due 3 days after Maggie’s birthday}. I ended up spending most of Friday in the hospital because Charlie jumped on my stomach pretty hard right away in the morning. Since baby isn’t really active at all in the morning, I had no clue if anything was wrong. I felt like it was all good, but wasn’t quite positive, and called the nurse line, knowing full well that they would want to monitor the baby for at least a little while. Everything was just fine, baby was doing great, but it was a long day spent in the hospital. Then, because I lost a full day of getting reader for the party, I had a ton of stuff to do. Seriously, hadn’t even gone to the grocery store yet. So, I spent all morning Saturday getting ready for the party. Part of me wanted to cry, but most of me realized that I could only do what I could do and it would turn out fine either way. The party turned out amazing, so all was well.
Other than the hospital snafu, I’m still feeling pretty good. I’ve still been playing softball, even though I don’t feel like I’m doing much for my team, especially when I’m suddenly hitting horribly.
On another note, Charlie has this tiny baby doll that he is very attached to right now. He has been taking good care of it and I think that he is going to do great with the new baby. I had been concerned that he would be rough and tumble, and while I’m sure he still will be, he knows we are gentle with babies and has been so sweet to watch with his baby dolls.
We have the new carseat I had wanted. Our old one was tough to adjust the harness straps on each time the baby was buckled in. We have some new newborn cloth diapers that have come in the mail in the last week or two. I have everything I need…..except a name in the event it is a boy.
So spam me with baby boy names. If it is a girl, we are set. If it’s a boy, pretty sure the baby will never have a name! I like old fashioned names, and would like a name that ends like Maggie or Charlie, but that may not […]
I totally dropped the ball last week….and this week, but I’m getting this update posted even though tomorrow begins week 30. Ahh, can you believe that?! So exciting.
Anyways, I have had a really awful week, with a lot of frustration. This week, I went to my 28 week checkup which had been rescheduled from the week before because the clinic managed to mess up my appointment time for two straight weeks. This was the one hour glucose test, so I was very upset when I showed up with the kids and was informed I didn’t have an appointment. Luckily, they did get me in. Unfortunately, it was with a doctor I did not care for. I remember the one appointment I had with her during Maggie’s pregnancy. She isn’t my favorite. {In my spoiled brat voice} I WANT MY DOCTOR!!!
The good news is, I passed the glucose test. For some reason I was worried, although I had no reason to be. I passed with both of my other pregnancies as well. In other news though, my hemoglobin levels are 2 points low. I have always had low iron levels, had to quit trying to give blood because it was never high enough. I already take an iron pill and a prenatal vitamin, so I was surprised. But, in a small way, relieved. I wasn’t sure what was going on with my body and the complete and total exhaustion that has been overtaking me every single day. Reading the anemia info booklet they gave me, I’m holding out hope that by upping the iron pills to twice a day, I will have an easier time sleeping and not be so blasted tired.
I get a few spurts during the day where I’m not totally worn down, but they don’t usually last too long.
Anywho, onto the fun stuff, here are some pictures from the other […]
