At 4 months I still feel like I did in a lot of ways at 3 months. I am still pretty tired, I haven't really been able to feel the baby move yet and I am really congested and sneeze constantly (30+ times per day)! I think I may be allergic to my baby! I sneezed a lot when I was pregnant with Cohen too, so I think it is funny I have the same weird symptom with this baby. (I don't generally have allergies or anything.)
I am in that chubby looking stage where people just think I need to lay off the donuts... (yum, donuts.... fyi I haven't had a donut in months)! I think I need to make a trip to Crispy Creme before we move!
Anyway, food still is gross smelling and non-appealing most of the time and my stomach is sour a lot. The nausea isn't as bad though, I do think it is improving. In the beginning I lost a few pounds and now I have gained a few back so I am about where I started. I have been able to start cooking again, Scott is very thankful! We were getting tired of eating out!
I don't remember having such strong round ligament pains with Cohen. I don't know if it is because I am picking up a 25+ pound toddler all day, but I have been pretty uncomfortable some days. I feel achy a lot with sharp pains on either side of my uterus, my doctor said all I can really do is rest when possible.
Other than those things, it seems to be going well! I am so excited and anxious to find out what this baby is! People have asked whether I want a boy or girl and it honestly switches back and forth from day to day! I am glad I don't get to pick the gender because I wouldn't be able to decide!!! I have my guess of what the baby is and I will tell you if I am right when we find out!
Since my ultrasound is in a few week I thought I would see what people's guesses are now! When Scott leaves next week he will be taking everything we need with him and that includes the computer. I don't know when I will have internet going again so my next baby post may be the ultrasound update.
So... Do you think it is a BOY or a GIRL??? Please comment! I want to see what most people think! :)
(The pic above was taken tonight after a big dinner (I emphasize "big dinner" because of the size of my stomach!) at Brick Oven with Andy and Sarah, Chris and Andrea. Thanks Andy and Sarah for treating us as a going away present! That was so sweet of you guys and we are really going to miss hanging out with our fun little group! We look forward to seeing all four of you this September!)
