Pregnancy and heartburn

Heartburn sucks! Apparently it's normal for pregnant women to have heartburn last longer than normal! Well my Dr. told me to take Zantac it does seem to dull the pain but I don't think I'll take it too often. Peppermint tea with ginger helps though it can lessen milk supply I just have to use in moderation haha.

Hospital bag

So I packed my hospital bag with less than 88 days (give or take 20 days based on how the baby wants to do this) I need to be prepared.Though I know I'm going to keep adding and changing it until i actually go in. But right now it has maxi pads, going home outfits for me and baby, 2 sleepers, slippers for me 4 receiving/swaddling blankets, 3 onesies, diapers, wipes, pacifier, a bottle, later i will add formula (just in case for some reason I can't breastfeed), breast pads, books to read, baby book, baby booties, mittens and hats. Of course I feel like I'm forgetting stuff. Haha

27 weeks pregnant

Im starting my seventh month pregnant. So many mom tell me they are jealous of how small I am. I'm both haply and sad that I'm not huge. I want that big belly everyone loves, but i like the shocked happy faces of people when they find out how far along I am. I'm also thankful that I haven't experienced the crazy pregnancy symptoms some women do. Although i know I'm not in the clear yet, many women have the mood swings, and other symptoms like hemorrhoids and morning sickness after the birth of the baby. I will work on my hospital bag tomorrow.
