Its weird how fast this pregnancy is going by. Next week I will already be 6 months pregnant and in about 3.5 months I’m actually going to have a little baby girl! Its exciting but scary…mainly scary because I’m terrified to give birth :/ Everyone just loves telling me horrible things about the end of pregnancy and labor and it kind of pisses me off, whatever happens will happen I just don’t want to spend my whole pregnancy in fear, you know? On the bright side I’m still in my regular clothes and hoping I haven’t gained any/too much weight this month yet I’ve been doing pretty good controlling what I eat and I’ve been going for walks almost everyday. :)

I can honestly say I cannot wait to have this baby. I want to go on a diet and get my body back and feel comfortable in my skin again. Of course I can’t wait because I’m excited to have my little girl but I haven’t even been able to sleep the past three nights because of my back hurting so bad :/ On the bright side I’m almost 6 months along and I’m still in my regular clothes, score!:) I also got my baby shower invitations ready to mail out tomorrow, I can’t wait to get all that baby stuff!

Well as you can see by my title I’ve gained 18 pounds already and I’m only just over half way done with my pregnancy. Oddly enough I don’t look like I’ve gained that much I only look like I’ve gained a few pounds in my stomach and my boobs of course. But the past 4 days I’ve been eating healthy and eating smaller portions and walking. I read in magazine today the key to staying in shape while pregnant is a 30 minute walk daily so from here on out I’m going to walk everyday and continue eating healthy portions because I don’t believe in using pregnancy as an excuse to eat everything and anything. Wish me luck :)

GIRL!!! :D

Tomorrow is the big day!! Kory and I find out if our baby’s a boy or girl. I couldn’t be more excited and antsy. Me, my sister and korys mom have all had dreams its a boy so I’m thinking it is a boy although I’m hoping more for a girl. I would love a little girl to put in dresses and tights and put little bows and ribbons in her hair :D Can’t waiiit….15 more hours!

I’m sitting in the OB GYN office wondering how I’m going to make it through my ten hour shift tonight. I had a restless night filled with nightmares that my unborn baby is the spawn of Satan and it didn’t help I woke up earlier than normal for this appointment. Sometimes I wish I could just quit my job, I can’t handle running around waiting on drunk assholes for ten hours every night but then where would that leave me? Well, on a positive note I’m hoping to set up my ultrasound with my doctor when she gets in here so hopefully I’ll find out what my baby is soon!
