Big Week

Let me start off by saying, this picture above is me. Not so much the klutz part, but the memory part. I have always had a great memory, but now that I am pregnant, I don't remember anything. I am having to write down stuff that I can't get to right away, just so I remember it! Crazy pregnancy hormones!


This past week was an eventful week with new "feelings" and experiences. First off, I am 23 weeks pregnant, 24 weeks on Thursday. Baby Boy moves around like crazy, and Mike was finally able to feel him last week. It is crazy how active this boy is. Last week I also had my first official uncomfortable pregnancy day. My uterus is about 1.5" above my belly button, and it feels like all of my organs are just sitting right below my boobs. I am getting used to it now, but what a strange feeling it is! My sleeping at night has come to a minimal, so that's fun seeing that I am only over half way there. I have always been a back sleeper, so to have to sleep on my side now, SUCKS! I really think my body is getting ready for the lack of sleep I will have once the baby is here. I am actually getting used to it, but I can't wait until I can sleep on my back once again!

On Saturday, Mike, my Sister, and I went to register at Buy Buy Baby in Coral Springs. We decided to register there, as opposed to the typical Babies R Us, because I DESPISE Babies R Us. Every time that I have had to go there to buy off someones registry, 4 out of the 5 items I want to buy are out of stock. What I don't understand is if they know they are that busy all the time, why don't they stock their shelves accordingly?! It really just gives me a headache going there, so I didn't want my registry experience to be a nightmare, nor did I want other peoples shopping experience to be a nightmare. Buy Buy Baby is a little further away being in Coral Springs, but it is so worth the drive. They are fully stocked with anything & everything, and they have sales associates all over the place to assist you. You can view our registry online here (just put in my name- "megan divito" in the give a gift section), and you can order almost everything online too.
Now, the registry experience was interesting. I had said all week before we went that Mike was going to be so overwhelmed with all the stuff a baby needs. Boy was I wrong! He was scanning all kinds of stuff, and about half way through, I was overwhelmed! It really wasn't the amount of stuff, I think it was more a panic about who was going to buy all this stuff! I know I am having a baby shower, but whatever isn't bought that we need, Mike & I will be buying it. It really kinda freaked me out! I just need to keep reminding myself that everything will fall into place! Luckily, my Sister was there to help us figure out the stuff we really need, and the stuff we can live without! (Thanks Whitney!)

It was definitely an exciting week, and I can't believe he will be here in a little over 16 weeks!
