~ My Pregnancy with Beck in a nutshell ~

I found out about this sweet surprise around Easter. I was shocked and excited and completely                                        speechless. All I knew for sure was November was so far away.

I suffered the same symptoms as with the girls. I was sick from start to finish. The only problem with this pregnancy, as opposed to the girls, was doctor's are very reluctant to prescribe zofran because it

has been tied to birth defects. This meant I had to switch my first doctor and convince the next one I really needed the prescription. All I know is no zofran equals a day full of puking. I did try to go without the medicine a couple times but no such luck. My only other pregnancy symptoms were a lack of energy which made sense because I had a low iron count. I could also get quite moody and had an intense craving for gummy fangs.

I may get sick (which sucks) but on a good note my ankles don't swell, my belly button stays in and I do not get any stretch marks! This pregnancy I also tried really hard to stay active. I gained an insane amount with Lilly Belle which I never got rid off. This pregnancy I didn't want to gain too much. I ended up gaining 31 pounds which my doctor seemed happy with. Chocolate will always be my downfall.

My little guy was super active while I was pregnant. He felt like he was stretching every which way. His feet felt like they were constantly poking my ribs and I am sure he was using my bladder as a pillow. The worse was when he had hiccups. I really do not like the way those felt. 

Overall, this was a really nice pregnancy (besides getting sick of course.) I didn't have any complications and all my appointments went really well. I am so happy this little guy came sooner then we originally planned.
