I am almost done with the 2nd trimester and I am definitely getting bigger not just the belly but my whole body. So, what's new this week? Nothing much really. I did remember like two nights in a row I woke up in the middle of the night feeling nauseated. Can you believe that? It almost felt like I was just dreaming that I was getting ready to throw up but unfortunately, it wasn't a dream at all. I was really miserable. It started when I ate a funnel cake for dinner. Ok, I didn't eat a regular dinner. I just had the funnel cake 'coz I figured, well it has so many calories alone so why eat more? LOL! You can just imagine all that oil and the confectioners' sugar. I had to admit it was really yummy at first. After feeling nauseated for 2 days, I swear I'd never eat funnel cakes again. Well, maybe just a long time from now, lol!
My gas problems have finally stopped except when I eat beans. I don't know what's with the beans but they really give me bad gas, lol! I guess that's why they call them the musical fruit (the more you eat, the more you toot!), LOL! Ok, enough with this silly stuff. My mother-in-law went shopping for my baby last Saturday. Oh that was really sweet of her. Since this is my 3rd boy, I don't think I'm gonna have any baby shower anymore. I mean I already got all the boy stuffs you could possibly think of. However, I don't like the fact that all my new baby's gonna have are hand-me-downs. I just don't think that's fair. So, anyway that's not a problem anymore 'coz he's got some new stuffs already. I still got a few more on my list but it's mostly the bigger stuffs like the swing and bouncer. The swing that we used for the boys before isn't swinging anymore, lol! So, we'll have to get a new one. Hubby's main thing on the list is the rocking chair because the boys broke it and I really need that since I will be breastfeeding and it's always convenient to breastfeed and rock the baby to sleep. It's comfortable for both of us that way, lol!How my baby's growing:
Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight — a pound and a half — doesn't sound like much, but he's beginning to exchange his long, lean look for some baby fat. As he does, his wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll start to look more and more like a newborn. His hair is probably recognizable now (in color and texture), although both may change after he's born.
