Half Way There: Pregnancy Update

Being a mother means that your heart is no longer yours; it wanders wherever your children do. Author Unknown

Time is def. passing by. Can you believe that I'm 21 weeks (5 months) already which means I have about 18-19 (give or take a couple of weeks) more weeks to go?!?!

I can honestly say that I am really and truly blessed. I get overwhelmed at times, just the thought of having 3 children under the age of 3 will that do to you, but it's still a blessing. If you would've asked me 4-5 years ago would I be in this position and I probably would've called you every "unholy" name in the book. But to be here, to be Niyah the "mommy" is wonderful. I told yall before that it was a certain feeling that you get when it's your child. In a lot of ways, I feel like I accomplished one of the greatest goal that only women get to experience.

Just to let you all know Jordan, the youngest, is now walking. The only thing I can say is THANK YOU JESUS lol. He's in to everything now but he's walking and I'm extremely happy because I'm cutting the diapers out and introducing him to the big boy potty. Wish me luck!

Enough with that random rambling, on to the pregnancy update.

As I mentioned before, I'm 21 weeks which is the half way mark. Everything has been going fine for me except for this nagging pelvic pressure that I have been having. It just started late Tuesday evening and Wednesday, I called my doctor. She assured me that nothing was wrong and it was perfectly normal. She also told me that it'll go and come and the best way to alleviate that was to move slower when I'm feeling it and to exercise, which I do occasionally. She's also an active baby during the day and because this is the 3rd, I've kinda already figured out a pattern of behavior for her.

My emotions and moods are so up and down, if I didn't know me I wouldn't like me. I'm already a somewhat anal person but this pregnancy has made me worse. I have to have things my way or it's the highway and I'm not really up for compromise. I've had more than one person tell me that Amaya will be a "diva" and that's fine by me. Her mother's one so why not?

Because I'm ever so tired, I think I'll go now. I promise I'll try to update more as the weeks/months progress because there's so much to share. Until next time, live love life!
