friggin sore throat

once again i have a sore throat. seems that this come around the 20th of each month for the last 2 months. hopefully this won't last long. i don't have the energy as it is so i'm hoping it goes away soon.

today is 30 weeks! totally unbelievable! i can't imagine this at times. when i lay down and feel him move a lot, it blows my mind thinking that soon he will be born. this makes all the years i wanted to be pregnant disappear. i don't look at the past but what i am feeling and enjoying today. i've waited a long time for this and even though there are a couple of bad days, i still enjoy every day. there are times were i am so tired that i just want to sleep. lately i have had a bit more energy. hoping this nesting thing kicks in fast cause there is so much that needs to be done around the house, his room for one. i'm still using it as my scrap room.

the shower is in 2 weeks. would have been this saturday but due to pitt state's homecoming we had to up the date. it's ok though. i am so excited about my shower. i can't wait to meet more of eric's family and share the joy with them, along with my family and friends.

gained 7lbs in 3 weeks. i think the dr is a little concerned about me getting preclampsia. he told me to drink more water. is it common to gain that much once in your pregnancy? hoping that it doesn't happen again. the more i gain the more i have to lose. i am close to where i was when i started the weight loss journey, lost 74lbs. so this freaks me out. i know it is due to pregnancy but that doesn't make it easier to deal with. funny, when i lost the weight i made a comment that i'd probably get pregnant and gain it back. 2 to 3 years later i did....well so far not all of it is gained and i did gain 20 before i get pregnant.

speaking of gaining weight...time to go each pizza!
