Hello again crazy hormones :)
posted 30th Jun '12
Well, as hard as it is for me to believe, I'm officially 8 months pregnant! As scared as I was about going into preterm labor like I did with my son, who tried to come once at 29 weeks but managed to stay in until I was 36 weeks, we haven't had any problems and I'm SO grateful for that! Our baby girls heart rate is good, all the tests we've had done have had good results, and it seems that she's a very active, healthy girl! Even my weight gain has been great! I'm 118 pounds now which means I've gained 24 pounds, so far! (I just wish some of that weight would go to my boobs! )
Although, hormones are starting to fully kick in just like they did with my son around this time. I've been crying over pretty much everything, happy and sad, which is causing some serious deja vu. As an example, I cried about an hour ago because my Husband was snoring. Why? Because for some reason my mind decided to say, "Hey. Someday he's going to pass away and you'll never hear that snoring again.". I'm afraid that if I actually make it full term I'll be so emotional that I may literally cry over spilled milk, which would make it so I would cry pretty much every day since I have a 15 month old boy that's obviously very messy. Also, and I was very upset about this, I found my first blue vein in my leg a few nights ago. Although it's not very noticeable I know it's there and it's been driving me nuts. And the heartburn! Oh, the heartburn. I've never had heartburn before in my life and I've had it at least twice a day for over a week now. But, that could mean that Evelyn will have her Daddy's thick hair! (Possibly!)

I've ben crying too :/
I was driving home the other day and I was having contractions and really bad back pain and I was just screaming to the top of my lungs, thank god no one was in the car with me.
I've been so stressed out about my back always killing me (and I'm not talking about normal pregnancy back ache, it feels like I literally was stabbed with a knife... LITERALLY) that as soon as I start feeling my back begin to hurt (and it doesn't even have to be hurting bad yet, just KNOWING its about to be hell) I just break down and start crying. I'm like "NOOOO! NOOOO!! I'm so tired of this.. Blah blah blah.. Pregnancy sucks sooo bad.. (CRY CRY CRY SCREAM)) Wahhhhhh, it hurts!"
You know? I go the whole nine yards when it come's to being a tit. Which is very surprising because I've always had such a high pain tolerance growing up and I NEVER cried over pain. But with these hormones, and all the stress this pain is putting on me, and the lack of sleep I've been getting..... erg, it just get's hard. I do admit, screaming and crying when I'm alone does help!
Hormones - Definitely not going to miss them after this pregnancy!
I'm 36 weeks and 3 days, not too much longer left til baby boy is here!

Lately I've been feeling horrible. My hormones make me irritable & angry. My hormones are all out of wack. I'm trying to stay calm with this pregnancy cause with my 1st I had so much anxiety. I just want to have my baby in my arms. Still have 4 wks left if I make it full term. With my 1st I had him at 36w2d. Lately I've been having horrible rib & back pains from hell. I can't get comfortable enough to go to bed or stay asleep either. I have a 2yr son old that has so much energy & my energy level is really low so its hard to keep up with him. Almost time ladies I cant wait!
