34w 2d

gosh...can't believe that i haven't blogged about this pregnancy at all. almost my entire pregnancy has gone by and nothing. between work, home and dealing with my 3 1/2 yr old son it's been impossible to even take time and focus on me. 
well, as for this pregnancy, i'm almost there. i have 6 wks to go before i get to meet this little one. we have, well more me than the hubs, have decided to not know the the gender of this baby. i want this one to be a complete surprise. i want that emotion of being surprised. i want those 3 little words to be like an omgish really moment. i don't know, i guess i'm weird, but i really want that moment. now, the hubs on the other hand has been dying to know. he predicts we're having a boy according to what he saw at our 4d ultrasound viewing. daughter thinks the same and she's pretty disappointed. she doesn't want to be the only girl in the family lol. oldest son hasn't really mentioned his predictions, but he's older and doesn't show much interest in his mom's ever so growing belly. i had him last week feel the baby move, but he was so embarrassed to touch that he busted out with sweaty palms lol. youngest son tells everyone that i have his baby brother in my belly. so, another one leaning on a boy gender. he's so overjoyed though!! he rubs my belly, he kisses my belly and already gave the baby a name. this baby's name is baby boo boo bear. i call luch boo boo bear already, but now that he's a "big boy" he only wants me to call him boo boo. so he told to me, "mom, i'm boo boo and my baby is baby boo boo bear, ok?" awww...what a cutie! as for me, i have no preference just as long as i have a healthy baby, but if i were to guess i would guess a girl. :)

here's a 4d pic of my little darling. this was at 24w 5d. this baby has no resembles to luch. he/she looks more like my side of the family and luch looks more like the hubs and his side. from looking at the pics this baby is definitely going to have my side of the family lips. look at those lips lol.

this was my 28w bump pic. i was so excited to hit 3rd tri so fast in this pregnancy. i was counting the days, literally! :)

right now my sleep sucks!! can't sleep straight through the night. i'm constantly up peeing and what not. i can't sleep on my right side because this baby is just so snugged on that side that it makes it impossible for me to lay on that side. oh and baby moves like crazy!! moves to the beat of whatever music i'm listening to. at night this baby wakes me up. i swear it's like he/she is having a one baby war in my womb. i sometime feel like i'm in turbulence that's how hard this baby moves inside of me. oh and what has got me good is heartburn. haven't has any until this last week. it's killing me!!

i'm also going through hot flashes lol.  i'm always always hot!! our cali weather right now is in the high 40's and i'm enjoying it. i spend all day with my fan on me at work. i make the hubs open the bedroom window at night for me because i'm so darn hot! 

biggest craving right now are nothing but sweets! especially chocolate! i pretty much could inhale anything chocolate even for breakfast. my faves right now is oreo and nutella...yum. 

anyways, hopefully i'll get to blog more before this baby is born. my maternity leave at work starts in jan and i should have all the time in the world to keep updating this from time to time. so, until next time. :)

here we go again

yup, i took 2 hpts and 2 bfps....woohoo!! took one yesterday and one today. the second line was faint, but that's exactly how i got mine with luch. words can't explain how i'm feeling. i'm over the moon and the hubs is too. we haven't stopped talking about this and he said that this one will be a girl lol. we haven't told anyone but luch. we told him that i have a baby in my tummy and he smiles. we asked him if he wants a sister or a brother and he said a sister. we're going to wait until i'm done with my 1st trimester before spreading the news.
i go in for a nurse visit on wednesday for an offical pregnancy test and then start all the paperwork. i'm soooooooo freaking happy!!!

cycle 9 & 2ww

i'm currently on cycle 9 and currently in my 2 ww. i couldn't tell you what dpo i'm actually on, but after obsessing on some symptoms i would have to say i'm on dpo 18. i felt for the first time in a very long time  o pains. that day was may 7th, so i'm going with that date. this excited me to the bone!!
now that i'm in my 2 ww here is what i've been feeling:

a few cramping and tenderness on my boobs. this is all a little over week one. these are normal af symptoms for me, so was not getting too excited on these. other symptoms that i've noticed are the freaking pimples that woke up with me a few days ago. i was telling dh how i'm all of sudden hiting puberity lol.
week two, nothing big same symptoms. i still have the tender boobs and light cramping. i have been feeling a bit weird after i eat sometimes. not so much like queakiness, but like maybe i ate too much feeling. i also have been very gassy and my bm have been completely off...sorry tmi lol i know. the end of last week i've been sooo hungry, but i've changed the way i've been eating. i have stopped eating so much sweets and started jogging again a couple of weeks ago and eating smaller meals throughout the day. this week has been torture for me. i'm starving & i'm super tired!!! i get up at 4 am m-f, but never felt so sleeping so early into my work shift which is 8:30 am. the past few days i've been fighting with myself to keep my eyes open while i'm driving on the freeway. yesterday was the worst. after exiting the freeway i caught a red light off the off ramp i kid you not, i closed my eyes for a sec i thought and i nodded off. i know so dangerous and i got scared because what made me open my eyes was felling my car moving very sloooow. ok so this is very usual. oh and another symptom is, i'm getting a lot of ligament pains. i feel this when i'm getting out of my car or just getting off from the sofa or chair.

well, those are my symptoms and i'm crossing my fingers for a bfp. today i'm going to get a hpt. i think this cycle could be it. i'll keep you all posted. cross your fingers for me. :)

on to cycle 8...boo!

so, af is in town again, whatever! not even in the mood to express how i feel about this. all i have to say is...I HATE YOU AF, PCOS & FIBROIDS!! *sigh*

ugh...

i'm on cd 26 and i didn't see any signs of ovulation and i'm getting closer to yet another visit from af. boobs are sore and last night some cramping started up. i'm on a chocolate bing & i'm cranky lol. this only happens when af is arriving...ugh...

cycle 7 and nothing

since i started charting back in july i haven't had any good charts. i'm now on cycle 7 and it's getting pretty frustrating. last cycle sucked really bad. af started off pretty heavy and awful. found out last month that i have a few fibroids sitting on the right side of my uterus and one good size on my bladder. geez first pcos and now fibroids...eek! after hearing this it depressed me that i cried for a few days. thought about how much harder it's going to be. another road block. i've know about these suckers, but never read about them until now. i'm not ready to give up my uterus, so i decided to deal with the flare ups and take it like a champ. this cycle was normal and pain free which i can say it was a happy period :). according to fertility friend my ovulation days is next week monday, tuesday & wednesday, but that can be misleading for a girl in my condition. ha let's see how this cycle plays out.
