This is one very proud momma right here!!
Nya Rose Bynoe
Since updating my family wall and some of the pictures in my living room this past week, I've been drawn to my girls second ultrasound pictures. I can't help but stare at my two beauties and compare their little faces.
Can you just say LOVE is an understatement when I look at my two girls. My heart is literally swollen!!!!
They look so very similar, yet different in their own little unique way.
Nya had/has more of Dennard's shape face (oval) and Dennard's hubby cheeks. Believe it or not, when he was Nya's age, he had the same delicious, plump, little squeezable cheeks :)
Sweet Pea on the other hand seems to have the same sweet, small, petite little face Nya had/has; however, although the picutre isn't as clear, she seems to have more of my shape face when looking at her jaw structure (square).
Tonight after bible study I was showing the pictures to some of the people in my church. They couldn't get over the resemblance.
I can't not WAIT to see what and who Sweet Pea looks likes and resembles. Is she going to be another daddy twin like Nya, or maybe a mommy twin? Only a few more weeks...maybe days...maybe even hours!!!! we will soon tell :)
Today was my 4th OB appointment. Everything went as scheduled. I've gained two more pounds since my last appointment; very excited to hear that because it means my little one is fattening up for delivery!!!! This is the time in pregancny when more weight gain is wanted. The baby only has a little while longer to plump up before being welcomed into the world.
My blood preasure is good. My strep test came back negative; PRAISE GOD!!! This is a bacteria that some pregnant mommy's can get when pregnant that can be very dangerous to a baby when leaving the birth canal.
Sweet Pea is still head down. She's been SO active lately I was afraid maybe she had turned; but was very reassured when the Dr said 'Nope! She's definitely head down!'.
My appointment this week was with Dr.Kanee. Very nice man, but quick and to the point. I never even got to ask him if Sweet Pea was engaged or not :(
I guess I'll know if I go into labour between now and my next appt. Lol
Overall I have been feeling fantastic this week!!!! Lots of energy and a lot accomplished.
I have been feeling a large amount of jabs and kicks to my ribs; very uncomfortable and painful at times.
The contractions have let up, which is awesome!
I've been experiancing heart burn in the evenings now. It literally comes out of no where.
My fingers have been feeling very tight and swollen. I wake up in the AM and can barley bend them. Once I'm up and my blood gets circulating again, they are fine; however throughout the day I will get swelling and tightness again. Makes it difficult to take my wedding rings on and off at times.
My chin broke out into the worst pregnancy rash I've had to date. I get an outbreak every 4-5 weeks or so, and they usually last a day after applying the special cream, but today it surfaced again; painful, red, itchy little bumps. I have since applied the cream and hope that it's gone in the AM.
Some have been asking when I will be posting my maternity picutres. I am still waiting to see them myself. Once my sister uploads them to Dropbox for me from her camera, I will be able to post :)
I'm very excited to see them and print some of them out.
This evening after Bible Study I decided now is the time to empty my phone of all picutres and video to ensure I have space in my phone for pictures when I go to the hospital. It's all about being prepared and ahead of the game. Lol
I'd hate to have Sweet Pea and my phone say 'memory full' when I go to take a picutre. That would be a complete nightmare!! Especially with the amount of picutres I plan to take. Lol
A girlfriend of mine just gave me a brand new, still in the package, beautiful car seat canopy. I was going to buy one for Sweet Pea, but she happened to have a brand new one in her home that she wanted to give to me. A blessing indeed!
My house is really coming together. I finished the painting today and have even done a little redecorating :)
I've been getting texts and calls from family and friends more now asking 'how are you feeling? Almost time yet?'. Lol
As much as people, especially my mother - lol, doesn't think that I'll be able to hold out until July, I really think I have a good chance in doing so.
I can even see myself going right to my original due date, if not over.
We will soon see ;)
Ps. I'm now starting to see what people have been telling me; I've definitley dropped!! I've always carried low, but the shape of my tummy has changed. It's like its starting to point south now! Ha ha
It's no longer looking as round, but more low and pointed
