30 week pregnancy update

Hey Ya'll!!!



HOW IS BABY RYLA?!?  
At 30 weeks, 1 day Ryla is still growing at a steady pace. At my recent doctor’s appointment she measured what she was supposed to be at 30 weeks. Her movements are all day, every day and they are starting to hurt. I don’t know what part of her body is in my ribs but when she’s there it hurts but as long as she’s comfortable I’m good. I just have to tough it out and suck it up!

HOW AM I DOING!?! 
I'm doing pretty good. At my 30 week prenatal appointment I learned I've gained 35 pounds so far. I try not to let the weight gain bother me because it’s expected but I never predicted I’ll be at 35 pounds weight gain with 9 more weeks to go but it is what it is. I am going to start cutting back on my sweets because my sweets game is serious! Ice cream, cake, cookies, Starbucks frapps, anything with lots of sugar I’m all for it but I seriously need to stop lol. My prenantal appointments are every two weeks then will get weekly starting at 36 weeks. Doctors’ orders are for me to cut back on my sugar intake and to stay off my feet as much as possible. I’m required to prop my feet up for at least 20 minutes every day after work.

I do want to share that about two weeks ago I had a pregnancy meltdown. Around midnight on a Saturday I just started crying out of nowhere. My feet were hurting so bad and were so swollen, I was tired, Ryla was in my ribs being unbothered and I just had enough. I was officially tired of being pregnant! I was just crying and crying and every time I looked at my feet I would just cry more. Then I started crying more because I felt like I was being selfish. I’m pregnant with a beautiful blessing inside me when there are people out there who can’t even conceive or carry a baby full term so who am I to complain and cry. My meltdown lasted about an hour then I finally stopped crying and went to sleep. I don’t even think Ryan knew what was going on because he was sleep upstairs and I really didn’t want to be bothered by him anyway lol! I’m much better now. I guess the hormones took over and I just broke down.

IN OTHER NEWS I PASSED MY GLUCOSE TEST!!!!!!!!!

SYMPTOMS
Fatigue – I’m tired yall! Point, blank, period.

My poor feet – My feet are still swollen. Like extra swollen. It’s ridiculous. I can’t fit any of my cute shoes. I can only fit about 2 pairs of my sandals so I just rotate them. I think I may have to start wearing flip flops to work with not a care in the world because my feet freaking hurt!


Heartburn – The heartburn is real but it isn’t like extra bad if that makes sense. It’s frequent but it’s not to the point where I need Tums.

OTHER STUFF
I only have 9 weeks, 6 days to go! My excitement builds higher and higher as the days go by. Ryla’s bow game is serious so I absolutely cannot wait to dress her up in cute girly clothes and put oversized bows on her head! Andddd I still have a bow addiction and it’s to the point where I’m buying bows on a weekly basis :)

Stay tuned for more pregnancy updates :)

29 weeks, 5 days
