just a quick note

While Chuck and Michael play Xbox in the living room, thought I would blog a little since I hadn't in a few days. Week 22 begins tomorrow and I'm thankful. Last week was a very hard week, not with baby, because she's moving and jumping and playing and I'm sure growing. We had a few things go on in our life that has put us in a struggle, but we will survive and make it out with only the strength and lessons learned from it all. Baby girl is apparently learning that my bladder is trampoline-like and she gets good "air" when she hits it just right. And she is becoming a pro at it! I've learned that she absolutely doesn't like salsa, which is such a shame because it was one of my favorite snacks. She must be growing because I am getting hungrier more often and am trying to eat as well and as much as I can. Every night when I go to bed, she begins her tumbling and flipping and acrobats! Chuck is trying every night to feel her, but he hasn't yet. Hopefully soon! The worst symptoms I'm having at the moment are major fatigue, which I don't know if it is baby caused or just stress caused, because like I said earlier, it's been a hard week and I've slept next to none and I'm having aches and pains all over, especially my back and feet at night. I don't know if my feet are swelling, but they ache, only at night. But honestly, I feel ok, I'm not complaining! She'll be soooo worth it when she makes her grand entrance!
My next MD appointment is Aug 4 and Dr Christine has already told me they will be doing another ultrasound to look at her kidneys, and I will having a gestational diabetes test.
