22wks5days

I had my OB appointment last thursday and I lost 1/2 lb. I should be gaining weight and I'm actually losing. I don't mind because I know the baby is growing and I'm eating. Although my husband thinks I'm not eating enough. I guess I was just meal contious before the pregnancy and now I still think about it behind my mind. I do eat cookies and candy once in a while.
I just don't eat breakfast but I have a big lunch and then a medium sized dinner.
Physically I've been so tired. I've been having contractions here and there but nothing major. I told my OB and he said if its more than 5 in one hour to call immediately.
This weekend I went christmas shopping for what's missing. I think I over did it with the talking and moving around. Sunday I went to the mall later in the day to buy some stuff and ended up with a terrible pain. It was contractions but out of control. The baby must have been in a weird position because I can feel a lump in my belly button. He must have been stretching out a leg and tried getting it out through there...lol
I stopped and told my husband to rush and get the car. I drove home and took a warm shower and drank cold water and laid on my left side. I was so tired I fell asleep right away. The pain wasn't there in the morning.
Yesterday I walked during lunch to get food and come back and I just couldn't do it. Walking is just too much. The skin on my stomach is being pulled really hard and my belly is so hard and I keep getting the pains.
Same today. I think I'm ready for bedrest. I didn't want to go this early but my body is just giving up.
I know it sounds so strange because I'm only 22 weeks but I don't tolerate pregnancies well and my uterus must be really week.
I went on bedrest at 28 weeks with Amelia.
I'm okay, just sitting here at work and working but walking to the bathroom is just hard.
OB said he's not worried because the baby is growing alot. He's actually really big and my belly is huge. The weight of the belly is what I think is making me hurt so bad.

It's a boy!!!

I haven't posted in a little while. I'm 20 weeks now. I just found out we are having a boy.
We are so pleased. I came back to work and I wish I would have just stayed home.
I got a cervical ultrasound after the regular one and now I feel a little irritated.

At 18 weeks I was 158lbs. I gained almost 5lbs since week 14.
That is alot.

My birthday just passed this friday and I got a surprised party from my side of the family.
It was really nice. I got an Ipod too. It's been a while since I got something for myself. Well it was a gift
from my husband. I meant it's been a while since something was actually for me.

The baby actually weights 13 ounces.
Everything else looked great. They couldn't see if the baby would have any problem in the rectal area.
I really hope and pray it doesn't.

Well I started christmas shopping. I got 4 kids out of the way.
I did some decorating. It's been so cold out. 30 something degrees.
Too cold for anything. I just realized I leave in 15 or so minutes. Yipee!!!
