The Midwest Momma: November 2013
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 24, 2013. Welcome to the fastest pregnancy known to man. In real time that means Welcome Third Trimester. This honestly is the fastest pregnancy. How has the 3rd trimester creeped up on me like this? Monday is my glucose test. I'm not really looking forward to that but it's not THAT bad. Ugh. I'm trying to remember if you pee in the cup first and they take your blood second or if you get blood taken both times. I can't remember. Do you guys remember? I guess it doesn't matter. if I p...

The Midwest Momma: September 2013
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 27, 2013. 20 weeks. Let's see. I was/am sick this week so that is always fun while pregnant. Being unable to sleep has shown me that my Cookie is extremely active in the middle of the night. Much more active at night than during the day. My baby must have his/her days and nights mixed around. We have our ultrasound on Monday! So excited to see this little baby. We aren't finding out the sex remember so don't ask me. I won't know anymore than you will. Thursday, September 26, 2013. I am ...

The Midwest Momma: December 2013
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 27, 2013. Late but this week was dominated by Christmas festivities. Cookie and I had a grand old time seeing family and eating our share of sweets and basically getting exhausted 15 minutes into any holiday event :) Being in your third trimester makes gatherings a bit more tiring than usual. I hate to admit it but we are still recovering. I have been sleeping like the dead at night. Uffda. 7 weeks until due date! Apple Danish Days and Coca Cola Nights. Friday, December 20, 2013. What el...

The Midwest Momma: #4- 11 weeks
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2015/06/4-11-weeks.html
Friday, June 5, 2015. This is dejavu times four. How am I doing this already again? FOUR KIDS. I can't even. Let's stick to the facts. Fact is this baby is a slight surprise for us. While we did plan on having a 4th baby, we did not plan on one right now. This baby is magic. That's a lie. We know what happens to make babies. And here this baby is. My stomach pooched out almost immediately. How do I know this? It looks like there is a baby in your tummy! Do you know what happened yesterday? It was not THA...

The Midwest Momma: October 2013
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 25, 2013. 24 weeks. Is this considered 6 months? The way they measure pregnancy is ridiculous. I'm 24 weeks but technically I'd really only be 5 months. They say pregnancy is 9 months but really you are pregnant for roughly 40 weeks which if you are measuring every 4 weeks would be 10 months. This is a constant bicker back and forth between Max and I. Not a bicker, more like a friendly banter. I have my 24 week apt on Monday so I will have some direct baby news to report then and, ugh, kn...

The Midwest Momma: July 2015
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 17, 2015. I'd like to start by saying:. A I don't like to base my photography skills on my weekly photos. I promise I am better than what these show. I'm generally in a hurry for these and my house is dark. Get it done. In and out. You get the picture. B I dug up the weekly photos from my pregnancy with Dexter so you can compare a wee bit. I had to crop that weird though because I don't know what I was doing back then when I saved everything. Apple Danish Days and Coca Cola Nights. You gave ...

The Midwest Momma: August 2015
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 28, 2015. 4- 22 and 23 weeks. I squished two weeks together. I'm a busy gal, you know? We took the picture but I left immediately to get away from my kids and re cooperate from, well, being a mom. Then a day went by and another and I said, "hell, I'm not writing something now when I'll have to again on Friday." See how that goes? And what's the problem with my lady bits? Doesn't s/he realize that soon enough s/he will be making a super fun journey down that path? Better be nice to it.

The Midwest Momma: #4- 20 weeks HALFWAY!
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2015/08/4-20-weeks-halfway.html
Friday, August 7, 2015. 4- 20 weeks HALFWAY! I'm halfway done brewing my fourth baby. There really isn't much to report for this week. I'm not as funny and clever as last week because I'm a different sort of exhausted right now. My funny posts come on the days where I'm both exhausted and irritated with the day. Then I don't give two sh*ts about what I say. Now I'm just too tired to even think. Very excited to see our little Squirt up on the big screen! Apple Danish Days and Coca Cola Nights.

The Midwest Momma: February 2014
http://themid-westmomma.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 22, 2014. So that I could have my surprise birth day and still be induced. Ha, that is how much he wanted to induce. Max left work to come get me and I made arrangements for the boys. I also got some stuff done around the house so the place was decent for my mom while she stayed here with the boys. We dropped the boys off at Max's sister's and we were off. Ruptured membranes or not she's staying! By the time I got in the tub it was like 430pm. I had about 30 seconds before more con...
