My First Post..

So, I've been putting off creating a blog...but I think its important. I have been wanting to blog about the soon to be arrival of my little one, mainly because I think it will be really cool for her to look back on what it was like for her Mommy to be pregnant with her. So for my first blog, I'll address several different things!

First off...Boring details of the pregnancy

How many weeks am I? I am 24 weeks and 3 days, my new week starts every Thursday


I'm having...A LITTLE GIRL! ahh...as you've probably already guessed from the blog title, her name will be Molly Grace :)

Due Date: July 15, 2009

Total weight gain/loss: 11 pounds
Maternity clothes? Yep.
Stretch marks? Not yet
Sleep: you mean, what sleep? I have crazy pregnancy dreams, and this belly I've acquired prevents me from sleeping almost every way possible. The cure I've found: 1 Tylenol PM and LOTS of pillows
Best moment this week: starting this blog :)
Movement: she's constantly moving and kicking!
Food cravings: none really...i crave salad bars :)
Gender: sweet baby girl
Labor Signs: None
Belly Button in or out? half in, half out (i'm pretty disgusted by this)
What I miss: wearing skinny jeans or jeans in general
What I am looking forward to: July 15, 2009
Weekly Wisdom: Pepcid Complete does AMAZING things for heartburn/indigestion
Milestones: none really this week!

I'm real over being pregnant, but it is a really awesome experience, no matter how much I want to complain about it. It's been great feeling her move, hearing her heartbeat for the first time, seeing her for the first time in the ultrasound, finding out the sex, discovering things my body can do that I never knew, despising foods I used to love (for example: Chick-fil-a), but every food i do love gives me BAD heartburn and indigestion. I'm so ready to meet this little girl. I wonder what she'll look like, what life with a baby will be like, etc. I'm so excited, and also SO scared. This is not what I planned for myself at 23 but God is amazing and I know that he has a perfect plan for me and Molly Grace.

Hopefully this blog will be a place that I can share with all my friends and family that don't see me everyday at little bit about my pregnancy and a eventually about Molly Grace!

Now I need your help!

I'm trying to decide on bedding! I want it to be oh so cute and pink of course...and also classic, not like real typical infant bedding. I want it to be classy chic and PINK. I have found several that I like but I can't decide which one, so I thought I'd get advice from you all!



That's all for now! Let me know what bedding you like!

love,
mary beth and molly grace
