I’ve got one tonight. My dad has been asking to see the birth center so I’m bringing him along. 🙂 Current mood: Hurt. There’s some drama going on with my grad school program and overall, I’m feeling hurt and betrayed. I can’t get into details, but it’s really hurt…

I’ve gained… I’ll have to see when I get back to the states this weekend! Midwife appointment this week? Still in Espana! Current mood: Better than last week.

The yucky stuff: Some headaches but now I’m in…
I have been so lucky with my prenatal care experience this time around with Hattie. So lucky, that I’m now partnering with my birthing center, Baby+Co, to help all you mamas-to-be with preparing for international travel while pregnant! Baby+Co’s slogan says it all: A modern birth center, built on evidence, delivered with love. Baby+Co. When I was pregnant with Jude, I didn’t travel. Don’t get me wrong, I wanted to, but at the time, it just wasn’t plausible with finances. This time, I’m finishing up a graduate degree which…
Baby Lamotta is due September 28th, 2017! Today is 6/29/17 which means I’m 27 weeks pregnant. Some say this is the 3rd trimester, others say 28 weeks is! Since my midwife says 28, I’m sticking to 28! Baby is the size of a camping lantern! I’ve gained… 15 pounds! yikes! Midwife appointment this week? Yes! Tuesday night I had my 2nd trimester solo appointment that included my glucose screen. The appointment itself was great but the glucose screen was a nightmare. The organic grape juice was good, thankfully, but when it came time to…

Mmmkay? 😉 Midwife appointment this week? Nope, but I have my glucose screen next week. Yikes. Thankfully I asked for the organic grape juice so I don’t have to drink the watered down sprite-like drink… Current mood: All over the place, honestly. Happy that things are finally coming together with buying my dad’s house (my late childhood…
Baby Lamotta is due September 28th, 2017! Today is 6/16/17 which means I’m 25 weeks, 1 day. Baby is the size of a baseball glove. I’ve gained… well the scale at Baby & Co said I gained 13.4 pounds – however – I was wearing my chunky wedges on the scale so I’d subtract like 2 pounds for those so I’m going to round to 11 pounds for now. 🙂 Midwife appointment this week? Yes, I had my 2nd trimester group visit at my birthing center Wednesday afternoon. This was my first…
Baby Lamotta is due September 28th, 2017! Today is 5/26/17 which means I’m 22 weeks, 1 day. Baby is the size of a water bottle. I’ve gained… good question. I really need to weigh myself. I swear I’ll do this next week! Midwife appointment this week? Nope. Current mood: I just almost fainted so not in the best mood. Cravings: I’ve been loving fruit lately. Especially strawberries and cherries. Food Aversions: Pizza BUT I was able to eat one with spinach on it the other day. Although, it just…
Baby Lamotta is due September 28th, 2017! Today is 5/18/17 which means I’m 21 weeks! On the down slide now! Baby is the size of a baseball hat. I’ve gained… let’s be honest for a minute here. I haven’t weighed myself and while I’m tempted to walk my tush upstairs and do so, I’m also terrified because homegirl is looking more and more like a whale each day. Midwife appointment this week? Not this week! My next appointment will be my 2nd trimester group visit…
Baby Lamotta is due September 28th, 2017! Today is 5/11/17 which means I’m 20 weeks! Throw the confetti! I’m halfway there! (WOAHHHH… LIVIN’ ON A PRAYERRRRR) Baby is the size of a paper airplane. I’ve gained… only 8 pounds! I checked all my baby apps and they said 10-12 is the norm so I have no clue how I’m only 8 pounds heavier. But Erica tells me it looks like I’ve actually lost weight. Perhaps it was the whole being sick most of this pregnancy…
Baby Lamotta is due September 28th, 2017! Today is 5/4/17 which means I’m 19 weeks pregnant! Woo! May the fourth be with you! (I don’t know why I said that. I don’t even like Star Wars. Proceed.)

We had our Superhero or Princess themed gender reveal last…
