Belly Update

Hey y'all! Here's the past couple of weeks of my tummy growing.

Once again, everything is running very smoothly and I feel great! There are a few discomforts I have been noticing. When eating, especially a lot (which let's be real, ya girls hungry!) my stomach feels like it's going to blow. It is so uncomfortable it's insane! Imagine how you feel after Thanksgiving dinner and you've got an insane food baby and you have to unbutton your pants.... yeah it's like that but worse!!

Another thing too, waking up at 2 am and not being able to fall back asleep. The baby is super active at that time. You can barely feel it on the outside of my stomach, but on the inside, it's doing karate, kick boxing, track, and gymnastics - I swear! That's how it feels.

I have also learned that sleeping with a pillow between your legs and up under your belly helps you sleep through the night too! I'm a stomach sleeper and obviously I can't be doing that and it's recommended sleeping on your side. But I guess I just didn't realize how much that hurts my hips and my back - throw a pillow in the middle of it all and it helps! Honestly, I just use a regular pillow because pregnancy pillows can be kind of expensive and for me trying to be more minimalist, it didn't make sense to pay the big bucks for one.

Monday November 19th is right around the corner and I have my doctor appointment at 2 pm!

What will it be? We don't know yet but we're going to find out SOON!!!
