So I haven't been updating much....

...and that's because I am constantly feeling like crap!  And who wants to write a blog where they are complaining all the time?  It's time for an update nonetheless though, so here we go.

  I had been feeling pretty great for awhile....especially since 21 weeks or so.  But once I hit 29-30 weeks, all hell broke loose.  The heartburn is the worst I have ever experienced.  I literally wake up choking on acid vomit.  The doctors put me on Nexium because it's so bad and it's helped a lot but then last night I had another horrible attack of it.

The constipation is WORSE than the 1st trimester.  And so much more painful now that the baby is so big in there.  When you're having stomach cramping and the baby is kicking you at the same time, it is not fun. Between that and my IBS attacks, I have been having a lot of Braxton Hicks, due to those issues most likely (so said my doctors). 

Don't get me wrong, I am still SO thankful to be pregnant.  No matter how bad I am feeling, I smile everyday because I know my little girl will be here soon and it'll all be SO worth it.  It's just definitely to that point in pregnancy where it starts to become very uncomfortable.  Half the time I can barely even reach my ass to wipe it (I so wish I was joking, lol).  The cramping and aching and pains are pretty much nonstop.  And Hannah is a super active little one inside me.  She has brought tears to my eyes with some of her kicks because they are that hard.

Regardless of ALL of that and regardless of all my emotional crying spells, I am happy.  In two months or less I will have my beautiful baby girl with me.  I can't wait til the moment I see her face and get to hold and kiss her and have her here with us.  It's something I dream about often.  And my husband is SO excited too.  He is going to be such a great father.

Yesterday we did our second maternity shoot.  I was 31w3d.  We got to see two photos so far and they are SO cute!  Can't wait to see more.  It was a HOT ass day though.  My hair, which I took hours to straighten nicely was completely curly by the end.  Oh well.  You can check those two photos out on my FB page if you want.  :)

That's all for now!  I'll try to update sooner again!
