MILK?

In the last couple of weeks the issue of baby movement has come up.


Can i feel it? 
Is it strong? 
Is it frequent?


Well the answer was usually 'not really feel it and if i do once in a while'.


Then came the issue of severe heartburn. So i decided to go on a milk versus water diet. And then an explosion occurred. Baby started somersaulting non- stop. And i do mean non-stop!!!


I can hardly catch a breath before i feel the grinding rotation and staining of muscles. I can even see the nice 360 degree rotational movements. Talk about surprise!!


My only fear now is this. If milk makes the baby hyper, am i ever going to sleep once he/she is here? 


O Lord my God PLEASE give unto me a restful child.

I LOVE MY HUSBAND

So i understand men are really from another planet than women. We read different meanings into the same statements. 

It is so weird that sometimes you think you are going crazy. You wonder 'How can he act so clueless'? At this point you remember ohhhhhh not a girl.

It is frustrating getting to the middle ground of understanding. Trying not to get your emotions hurt or hurting his (Trust me he has them even though he may hide them most of the time).

Sometimes you wonder what was i getting upset about? Other times you are a dog in a manger and wont let issues go. 

These pregnancy hormones are so not helping. Coupled with the fact that i have not had a hubby hug in a while. Travelling is really the pits. Temporary separation really does take it's toll. I don't know how many young couples do it these days. It is fine when you are dating but once married it a whole new ballgame. 

I love being hugged and tickled.
I love those quiet secret smiles.
I love the mug of hot chocolate in the morning.
I love the occasional bed in breakfast.
I love the dates on a weekend.
I love the way he holds me when i am sleeping.
I love the way he walks beside the road on the sidewalk.
I love the way he wants to slay all my dragons.

Ohhhh how i love my husband.

Baby you have a wonderful father. Even though we may sometimes have our differences of opinion or misunderstandings, i will never regret my choice. When you come out you will see.

MUSICAL PREFERENCE

The experiment of the day. What music does baby like?

So i woke up this morning to this grand idea to find what the baby likes.
My inspiration? Heart in the box. Trust me only a Grey's anatomy fan would understand the reasoning.


The simple explanation is if i play something the baby likes i feel kicking and dancing. lol.


Not sure if it worked but so far the baby likes an eclectic mix of Glee, Kirk Franklin, Yolanda Adams, Rod Stewart, Third day, Cademon Call, D'Banj, Nikki Laoye, etc.


See my problem? It is not a single genre. It is a very scary mix that does not seem to make sense. Sigh. From now on baby is just going to listen to the ipod on shuffle and thats that.


I love you little me. Stay nice and snug till we meet. 
Happy 26 weeks!!!
