No news at my appointment today. Things will start to pick up next time. Here are some stats about my pregnancy so far:
-I've gained 22 lbs & counting
-My hair & nails have not grown like I hear they're supposed to
-Luckily I haven't seen any varicose veins
-I've had no strange cravings & eat about the same as I usually do
-I have that line below my belly button, except I also have one above my belly button as well & it's off centered
-My belly button is still an "innie"
-I don't have to pee all the time like most women
-I end up sleeping on the couch about 4 nights out of the week
-Acid reflux has started the past couple of weeks & is the worst
I have to say I've had a pretty easy time so far. Nothing out of the ordinary & that's ok with me.

Yes, acid reflux IS the worst!! Hopefully it will be smooth sailing from here on out!
Almost there. So do you start going every week now or after next time?
I remember taking tums every night the last couple weeks of my pregnancy to help with the heartburn. Why do you sleep on the couch? Does that help the acid reflux? You are getting so close!
omg, the acid reflux was the worst for me....soooo awful! hope it starts to settle down some for you! and, only 22 lbs?!?! impressive! :)
I can't believe how close you are to having Elliot!! Where does the time go...?
I'm glad that everything is going well except the whole acid reflux. I hope that will ease up for you...no fun.
It sounds like you are doing well in the home stretch! Good for you. You didn't mention stretch marks...do you have any? Due to the Lord's tender mercy, I didn't have one stretch mark after Scarlett was born. Unfortunately, the extra skin from where my belly was big won't go away :o(
Sounds like a good pregnancy. I hope it continues until the baby comes. I haven't experienced most of the pregnancy symptoms either. It's nice!
You are doing so good! I had an off centered line on my belly too...so far it hasn't faded yet(but its only been 2 weeks). And the reflux is the worst...I would throw up from it sometimes. She will be here before you know it, so hang in there! Its amazing that the second you have her, all of those nasty symptoms of pregnancy go away instantly! My advice for afterwards...get a belly band that goes from under your boobs all the way down to your hip bones. Its tight and it feels good, plus it sucks you back in really quick! Wear it day and night!
Well, you seem to be doing good. I have to pee all the time and I hate it. Also, I have acid reflux on and off, usually when i eat tomoatoes. Not fun. But, my belly is still an innie too, but barely.
i'm really jealous you've only gained 22 lbs! way to go! i never got acid reflux, yuck!
you are so close! i can't wait to see what Elliot looks like. she is going to be so darn cute because of her good looking parents!
Glad your first pregnancy has gone so well..can't wait to see your little one
Hi Jalei, I just had to comment that you are by far one of the most beautiful pregnant women I have ever seen. I saw the picture of you in your bathing suit on Amy's blog and I couldn't believe how gorgeous your body is!! You should be a maternity swimsuit model...seriously you look incredible. I think I gained 22 lbs in the first month I was pregnant...no fair! Best of luck to you in your pregnancy and delivery! :)
