Can't say it enough.

I know I'm not the best but I try very hard and force healthy habits upon myself especially being pregnant. And I can't stress it enough if you are pregnant PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take extra good care of yourself not just for you but more importantly your baby. Even if you have complications you can try and be healthy at least in your eating and drinking water like it's running out. I feel very blessed to have had a great pregnancy thus far (I'm 28 weeks and 2 days) I try and drink mainly water, juice or milk. Yes I will have the occasional soda or other sugary drink that I probably shouldn't have. I eat tons of fruits and veggies and eat until my body says "ok I'm about to be uncomfortable" even if it means eating 30 mins later. I walk, quite a bit. When Jose and I do go to the gym we go for 30 min, because that's all I can tolerate without doing to much and I walk a mile and a half in those 30 min. I have minimal swelling, I give credit to my eating and drinking water. Sometimes I feel like I'm not normal because of the fact that I'm not experiencing some of the things other girls are that are about as far along as me but I just have to stop and think, no I feel great, if there was something I should worry about I wouldn't feel so good. Everybody says "oh your baby will get the nutrients they need" no think about it if all you eat is junk with no nutritional value your baby is getting junk with no nutritional value. So please do the best you can for your baby.

(I will be posting a pretty long blog soon with tons of pictures fyi. belly pictures that is as soon as I figure out how to get them from my new iphone to the computer. :) )

I'm not one of those kind.

(excuse me while I vent just a little, or a lot)

I LOVE BEING PREGNANT. and I love everything that comes with it. The being hot all the time, the swelling, the emotions, the hormones, the uncomfortable-ness, the shortness of breath from talking because my little guy is up in my ribs real good, the feeling of my ribs being pushed on from the inside-out, etc.

I'm sick of having people tell me "oh you just wait" "wait till the end when (insert whatever "horrible" symptom) and then you'll be screaming to get him out."

I honestly don't think I will be one of those pregnant people. Yes I complain but I make my complaint, leave it at that and get on with life. Although to me these "complaints" aren't complaints really they are merely me stating the facts of what I'm feeling, not a complaint that I want it to end. Rocky can do whatever his little heart desires inside me as long as he's happy. In fact this little guy has to be all squished up for quite sometime, so he should be the one complaining.

If you don't think I'm serious...ask Jose. He'll tell you the same exact thing.
