Welcome to week 30 of the Snowman pregnancy. Ha, but according to him what week are we really? So, lets update everyone on how the little kickboxer is doing.

Kalvin Micheal is seriously kicking my ass, that’s how he is doing! At the beginning of this month I knew, just knew that he was going to be demanding to let him the hell out waaaaaaay before Baby J did. However, with what I was feeling I wasn’t sure if it was just because he was bigger or if the stress that has been going on during this pregnancy was helping out.

Now since the mom plays a huge part too in this lovely pregnancy thing, lets update you on how I’m doing as well during this time around.

Sadly, not so great. This pregnancy has been very very emotional for me since maybe the beginning of August. My emotions would go up and then down. I’d be happy one moment and ready to cry for no reason that I could see the next. What really made me py attention was that I noticed when people did idiot things or ignored issues that were right in front of their face that they refused to see like ignoring a child’s wishes that said no my anger was much more than I normally would be. I’m like definitely not a mean person, but once I was betrayed by Cindy and her family yet again and promises were broken the pregnancy greatly increased my haterid towards her and hell I don’t hate that many people. I knew I was in trouble then. Other emotions have gotten to me that I won’t put here that had me even more concerned and afraid that how Snowman started reacting that I was harming him as well due to the stress and my emotions towards certain people. So much so that I asked for another ultrasound to make sure all was well despite the doctor saying so with ust the normal pregnancy checkups. I wanted to know visually if he was under any distress.

That brings us to yesterdy!

Are we 30 weeks or 33 weeks, that is the question. Ha, can you figure that one out? I bet you can’t!

One big reason that also had me asking for this ultrasound was something I never had with my other pregnancy and was afraid Kal was having seizures or something and I was terrified, but tried not to let that show too much.

At our doctors visit last week which was the nasty, gross, why do they do this to me all the time pregnancy sugar test checkup I even asked my doctor about what I was feeling from Snowman, but she hadn’t a clue what it was about. Erm, definitely did not mke me feel relaxed or better about if something was wrong even though normal checkups were saying all was well. Speaking of those damn sugar test, seriously people can you get more than the orange flavored drink? That crap makes my head hurt and my body cringe at the thought of the taste, just eeeeewwwwwww!

Anyways, back to the snowman, hahaha, sorry keep going in other directions on you. Have you figured out yet about how we are either 30 weeks or 33 weeks yet? No, well why not?

First, let me say that the little Snowman is actually just fine. What I was feeling from him and still do the ultrasound tech knew what I was talking about, but had no idea why some babies do it. I was told that it is ok and I have nothing to worry about. What feels like seicures to me is just little shutters, but all is ok. The stress from recent issues at least as they could see visually has not impacting the little guy. Yay! Although, I think I want to investigate this shutter thing. It’s all new. Anyone else that experienced this have any thoughts?

Now, lets answer that question you probably still haven’t guessed on the answer shall we?

Kalvin is measuring about 2 weeks ahead of schedule. We are suppose to be at week 30, however, the kickboxer here says, “no no no no, it’s cramped in here and I won’t out,” and is at 32 weeks. Now along with that his weight is coming in at what he is suppose to be around week 33. Someone seriously needs to tell this little guy to stop having me eat so much! I mean hell, we still have weeks to go, um maybe.

Ha, during the ultrasound the tech got to see how active and I do mean active this little guy is. He was rolling and kicking and pushing up as hard as he could. The tech’s reactions every time Kal did a super hard kick was just priceless. I have no doubt that if she didn’t have a nice grip on that little camera thing and wasn’t noticing his strong activity before the major kicks that camera thing definitely would have flown across the room a few times.

LMAO, he is still not shy at all about showing that he is a *boy* He wants to make sure it’s clear even today that there is no thought of him being a girl. He is having none of that business!

With all that being said I seriously don’t think I will be making it until December or mid-December. We shall see what my doctor says next week at the normal checkup time. Hopefully I can get the woman to schedule the darn eviction date before like Baby J did he takes it out of our hands, lol.

For all of you that had it stuck in your head that it was twins, you should be ashamed of yourself! Really, he’s trying to kill me enough, why the hell wish more than one on me like that? Hmph, and I thought some of you cared about my well-being, lol.

Until next week, time to find something else to eat for the growing little guy who according to Jerry might say he’s coming at Thanskgiving after all, *cries*

Lets catch up on the little Snowman

Leave a Comment

Alright, I am a little behind here, so lets catch you up on how the little Snowman is doing!

The last time you heard about the little guy was our last ultrasound at week 20. Well, we’ve had 2 appointments since that one.

At week 21 his heartrate was a nice steady beat of 142 and the doctor had no worries. He is growing at the rate he should and was even nice and cooperated with the doctor, ha! Now for this visit I found out something interesting. They don’t start scheduling eviction dates until around week 32 or so. Um, WTH! I think by that time Snowman just like Baby J will be saying “get me the heck out of here!” So, sadly no eviction date set yet, boo hiss!

Now on to week 25 which was our appointment yesterday.

All day long little Snowman was *active* and did not stop moving from the moment he figured I was awake! *groans* He was moving so much that one of my classmates asked me if I was ok when she notice me wince and hold my stomach a few times. This little guy likes to kick, push and roll around my belly button and it feels awfully weird. I keep telling him that he keeps it up he’ll make me puke, but of course he doesn’t listen to me. Sighs.

So, onto the doctors who were extremely busy. My appointment was suppose to be at 1:30 but I wasn’t seen until sometime after 2, whew!

This week his heartrate was much much slower at 130. To me that is very concerning because that’s a big drop from any of the other visits. The doctor wasn’t concerned and was just thinking that maybe he was finally having a nap after being active all day and I want to believe that as well. However, i’m seriously concerned that the stress that happened the last week with people we tried to help and others may have contributed. Jerry was also a bit worried when I told him the heartrate.

Other than that Snowman is doing well and still growing as he should. So I will try not to worry and see what happens when I go back in 2 weeks.

Speaking of 2 weeks at our next appointment. It’s prego sugar test time! And guess what? I’m stuck with, that, damn, annoying, orange, drink, again!

What is up with every pregnancy, every doctor, no matter where I live has that damned annoying nasty orange drink? I mean seriusly there is another flavor out there! It’s a conspiracy I swear!

One good thing is this time I don’t have to starve all day before taking the test. That’s a good thing because I’d be in some serious trouble. Snowman absolutely refuses to give me a warning when he says time to eat. When he says feed me, he means feed me and right now! So, I just need to make sure that I eat something before my doctors appointment because I can’t eat during the test and it can take up to a hour or maybe more.

So, until next time the currently rolling streching Snowman and I say have a great night!

Our little mango shows us what he thinks about being woken up

The elusive Snowman strikes again

Leave a Comment

You know, I’m really starting to get the feeling that little Snowman here is going to be the quiet and sneaky type, unlike his brother that’s the energizer bunny sneaky type, lol.

Today was our doctors appointment where once again Mr. Kal decided to play peek-a-boo with us again. My doctor spent 10 minutes chasing him around trying to get his heart rate. She didn’t believe me when I said he made us work for it for the ultrasound, hahahah!

Linda, pushes a little on my stomach to make him go in the direction she wanted.
Snowman, ha, I don’t think so doc…stays put
Linda, moves the heart monitor thing where Kal is
Snowman, nope, I don’t think so.moves away!
Linda, wow, he is quite the stubborn one isn’t he? I didn’t believe you about him being a challenge!
Me, haha, told you!

Finally, she caught him I guess while he was taking a breather from swimming around in there and we got his heart rate at 147 for today.

Sadly, still no movements that he lets me feel on a regular basis. If he discovers that I can feel him sticking a body part out he quickly moves away and hides again. Darn him!!!

I will be switching doctors on the 22nd to the one that will actually be doing the c-section.

Linda, I’m going to now switch you over to doctor Clark, she’s very nice.
Me, Ah, so you won’t be my delivery doctor?
Linda, Nope, I don’t do c-sections. They won’t let me have a knife for some reason!
Me, Oh my, ok, her it is then.

So, maybe on the 22nd we can set the eviction date and by then Mr. Snowman will start being more ***cooperative*** I can hope, right?

Oh yes, and I am currently sitting at 159 pounds. Next visit is another ultrasound which checks Snowman’s anademy to make sure everything is growing as it should.

Until next time!

Snowman the sweet potato 2.0

Leave a Comment

Welcome to the little sweet potato 2.0 and how things are different this time around!

For those that are not aware because you aren’t following me on twitter or facebook, this little sweet potato is also a boy. He is our little Snowman and due in December! His name is Kalvin.

Lol, we played the guess his name game and let me tell you, the names people guessed during 3 rounds was just priceless. No one came close to getting it right until I gave a huge clue, but it was still fun!

So, all about this little guy!

1. I don’t feel him move as much as I did with Baby J and that’s taking some getting use too. As tiny as I am I’m use to feeling them fluttering around by the time I reach 3 and a half months! Nope, this time around the layout of inner parts makes it a bit different.
2. 2. He was not shy at all about letting us know he was a boy right out the gate. Thanks to Aira who described our ultrasound picture, hahaha, he’s posing for the whole world to see.
3. 3. I’m still sitting under 160 pounds at 18 weeks. Whereas with peanut I was almost 170.
4. 4. He loves pineapples, eggs ***thank god***, orange juice, corn and string beans mixed together, anything from taco bell, salads and yogurt!
5. 5. Now with this little bugger I get no gentle nudge of hey mommy I’m hungry! Nope, right out the gate it’s hey woman feed me and feed me now!

The most adorable thing is peanut and the baby to be. Lol, he likes poking my belly and saying hi to his little brother. He even gives him a kiss. I can’t wait until the day when Kal kicks him back to see what he does, hahahah.

Our next doctors visit is on Wednesday August 1, 2018. I think at that time is when we will be picking the eviction date for the little Snowman. So until then, have a great night. It’s time to feed the Snowman before he kills me, lol.

Bad mommy and daddy, I said just me

Anyways, mommy is trying to teach me to say my little brothers name. She says I sound likes I’m calling him cow, hehehehe! Shhh, I don’t think I was supposes to tells you that part! Ah well, what do I do? I have this baby coming who will takes all my mommy’s attention from me’s! Daddy’s too, but that just can’t happens, no no no no no!

I goes to sleep now. I have school tomorrows!

Night night baby. Remembers, I’s the big brother, k?

Bloodwork vs. Ultrasound, someone can’t read

Leave a Comment

Wow, this little snowman is full of surprises!

So, today was the first day of loads of days to look forward too, the first ultrasound. This ultrasound was very important because it would let us know how far along we actually are and how the little one is doing so far. Well, we found out and ***what*** a surprise!

Bloodwork vs. Ultrasound

If you read the last entry then you should be caught up and know that it told the doctors and lab people and nurses and then me that we were only between 4 and 7 weeks. Well, for me that just didn’t add up in my mind. There was know way in hell that could have been right, but ah well, whatever! It is what is is. On with the show!

July 24, 2018 at 9:30AM EST we got our answers!

9:15AM, May, come on down, we’re ready to tell you whats behind belly number one!

Amy our lovely funny tech person running the ultrasound was very nice and described all of what she was doing

Squirt squirt squirt goes that warm stinky stuff on your tummy
Baby is looking good
Chase him around to catch the heartbeat which reminded me of little Baby J when we wanted to hear his heart rate and find out if he’d let us see if he was a boy or girl, hahaha. The heart rate at present is 150 and sounded really good. I just love that sound!

Amy, so it looks like you are about 17 weeks pregnant!
May and Jerry, um, huh, what! Wait, what?

That’s right ladies and gentlemen, the ultrasound said we are actually sitting at 17 weeks and 2 days and ***not*** 4 to 7 like the lab people said my bloodwork said.

Who the hell read my lab work? I think they need to get back to lab school and learn to read. I mean holy hell, that’s a ***huge*** difference. 4 to 7 turns into 17, yipes!

So instead of early next year when this awesome unexpected bundle of joy will enter the world it will be around Christmas!

Merry Christmas it’s a

Psst, has anyone paid attention to some little key words I snuck in there? I bet you didn’t! Your task is to go back to the beginning and find out, better read slowly! Ha!

And ***no*** it is not twins!

See you next week!

Mommy, Baby J and Snowman!

Between 4 and 7 weeks

Welcome to new baby entry number 2! This one is pretty short, but still a nice little update.

i had my first brief OB appointment today and got to meet who will be my baby doc for the next several months and bring in the new little snow baby! Her name is Linda who’s last name I couldn’t spell or pronounced if you paid me, lol.

The purpose of todays visit was just to do the blood test to get the approximate guess of how far along I am in this pregnancy. Sadly I couldn’t get the test to find out if we’re having a boy or a girl. That blood work is something to doctors have to order since the labs don’t get that lab work round. I think they should if it’s a prego hospital, but hey, that’s just me! So, it probably won’t be until something in August when we find out.

So, according to the blood work I am sitting between 4 and 7 weeks of pregnancy. Big range I think. Damn blood work should be a lot more closer, lol. Our first ultrasound will be on Tuesday morning where it can get narrowd down some more going by size of the little snow baby that’s swimming around in my belly! If we’re lucky he or she will be nice and we’ll get a heartbeat as well!

So, until Tuesday, have a great night!
