Belly belly belly.

Back story: I've always been heavy and "squishy". Here's me at 7 1/2 weeks along. No baby belly here, just flub. *eww, I look REALLY heavy*

Then only 3 weeks later....


This is me today, at 10 weeks 3 days! Notice how BIG my belly is! Most of the time I feel more than just 3 months...I feel more like 5. Now, purely based on this picture I think I'm having a boy...why? 'Cause of the simple fact that nothing but my boobs and belly are getting bigger. I've always been well-endowed. However...I am not prepared to already be a 42DDD. Yea. Officially the biggest they have ever been. Which of course, Greg has NO problem with.




Ever since my belly started getting hard, the whole pregnancy is starting to become a little more real. Since ya know, the whole morning sickness and lack of period isn't that much of a confirmation for me. It's becoming so surreal. I wake up in the middle of the night and I realize that I've been sleeping in a totally unnatural position for me. (Yes, Jenn, I know, I can sleep with my butt up in the air...but I cannot for any reason get comfortable only on my side)


I've been really cautious on how I eat, and what I eat. I must admit though, it is getting a little hard. I wake up sometimes in the middle of the night and can't go back to sleep because I am hungry. I know I should eat when I get hungry but at 1:30am it's a little difficult to do so. And then when I wake up in the morning, I'm starving. Breakfast seems to be getting bigger and bigger. The rest of my meals are staying the same except for a small snack before dinner. (If not, I'll be so hungry it only takes 4 bites and then I'm full.) I'm trying not to give in but sometimes, baby boo gets to the better of me.


I've found out that my constant nose blowing and stuffiness is because of the baby. Yea, apparently since everything else in my body is going haywire, why not my nose too?


Other than that...everything has been going pretty well! :) I've actually learned not to stress out as much. Although I feel like crud now, it won't last forever. And the end product will be worth everything I've gone through so far, and will go through in the future.


Greg has been working a lot, which makes me miss him. Thank God. For a while, I wanted to get away so I actually would miss him. It was too much. We're always together and when we're not we're texting. It's ridiculous how many texts we send to each other per day. But I'm starting to miss him a little more and more. Now if we can only work on me getting my back rubs every day...hmmm.


Well, that's all for now!
