Sunny Side Up

When I went to the doctor last week I found out some kind of depressing things. 1st was that I am now up to 152 ... a total of 20lbs gained. I know that is good but I was 148 when I went two weeks prior. I can't believe I gained 4 lbs in just 2 weeks. So that made me a little sad. I've been better at doing yoga since then so maybe I won't gain so much in the next 2 weeks. The other "depressing" thing is that our little Seminole is currently sunny side up. This may not be a big deal to some of you but basically what that means is she's facing my tummy instead of the other way. This usually means a longer and harder labor. Back labor to be specific. There are still 7 weeks for her to turn around and I'm praying that she will do so. Jason was born sunny side up so I've been dreading hearing that for a while now.

In other news Momma, Daddy and Ashley came to visit this weekend. It was so much fun! We went to the mall, got pedicures (not Daddy or Jason) and then took some maternity photos. When Ashley puts them up for me to look at I'll post some. I really love hanging out with my family.

Today they left and I cried at church but Big Fish and Ted came this afternoon and that makes me happy too! Right now the boys are at softball practice and I know Jason is extremely happy to have Pops and his brother here. They also brought the bassinette so we can have our baby sleep in our room for a while. Its super cute and looks great in the bedroom.

Thats all for now ... pictures will be coming soon!

Pam, don't worry about the weight. Just tell yourself you are gaining what your baby needs. If you haven't changed much of your routine (food/exercise) then you are likely gaining something other than fat stores (like fluid or baby is gaining weight), or if you are, it's because your baby needs them. Your doctor will let you know if weight gain is "depressing". My doctor recently told me not to be surprised if I had a sudden weight gain at some point when I've been pretty slow and consistent throughout. Just remember that this is the one time in your life when weight gain has nothing to do with vanity. Relish it!! This is such a wonderful time for you and Jason. Be happy! We are all happy for you:)
