Sick Prego!

I spent the week before Christmas with a slight cold. Not being able to take anything sucks ass to say the least. So I kinda had to deal with it. I was sent a to-go-pack of Puffs Plus Lotion free from Influenster. Blowing my nose a zillion times had pretty much rubbed it raw. So I figured why the heck not go ahead and use the free tissues. I shoved them in my purse and headed out to do my Christmas shopping.  I started to cough and sneeze so I pulled out a tissue. To my surprise they are soft and silky BUT they don’t have that lotion smell. My nose is really sensitive to smell right now so the lack of smell in the tissues was VERY important to me. They didn’t rub my nose raw which is great. They also didn’t irritate my already raw nose. That was a plus. So in this prego girl’s world Puffs Plus Lotion to-go packs are the best thing since sliced bread lol

Happy Holidays


Happy holidays everyone. I say “holidays” because well there are too many holidays for me to keep up and name one at a time so that pretty much covers everything and everyone lol I spent Christmas in Las Vegas with my family. My Aunt Judy who I love is so funny. She keeps looking at me and saying “you’re pregnant”. lol I cooked all Christmas Eve so I could sleep in on Christmas day. I came down stairs on Christmas morning and realized this time next year Kennady will be celebrating her first Christmas. AT about 2am I got a call and a text from Damon saying he was in the hospital. I admit I went slightly into a panic. I was in a different state and could do nothing to help him. He passed out in the car on the way to take his daughter home. He’s had the same cough for MONTHS now. Turns out he has fluid in his lungs. Which then of course turned into pneumonia. His ex had to call 911 to come and get him. When he finally got transferred to Kaiser the doctor told him he had the body of someone 40 years OLDER than he is. He also told him that he wasn’t going to live to see 50. Mind you he’s 45 now. We talked a few times on Christmas and exchanged a lot of texts. We shall see how long this lasts. Yeah so I’m a skeptic. I have a right to be. Other than that Christmas was great. I got some totally cute maternity clothes and lotions for my belly. Then we went to Opportunity Village to look at Christmas lights and go on rides. I even went on the Merry-go-Round. I didn’t even throw up lol  Well It’s time for me to get a few things done. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas or whatever you celebrate.

My first VoxBox!!

 

Awhile ago I signed up for a site called Influenster. They send out things called VoxBoxes. They’re filled with free products for your to review.  The reviews are social media based. So the better social media following you have the better off you are on the site. The box I got was called the JollyVoxBox. It was filled with some great goodies. I got a full size box of Skinny Cow chocolate and peanut butter treats, Puffs with lotion tissue, Rimmel London Lip Laquer, NYC HD Color trio eye shadow and some really cute mini duck tape. I can’t wait to use all of these products. I’m pretty excited. This really is an amazing program and this was a great box. I cant wait for my next one!!!

Birthing center tour!

 

 

Yesterday was pretty exciting. My mom, best friend Amy and I toured the birthing center. WOW I was very impressed. SO impressed I forgot to take any damn pictures. I know I know bad mommy blogger lol. The nurse answered all 40 of my questions even before I asked them. It was pretty cool. I love their policies.

Pros:

* Delayed Cord Clamping

* Multiple people can be in the room with you when you give birth.

* 48 hour stay

* Birthing Balls OK

* Food places around the hospital deliver

* Private Rooms

* Lactation consultants on call 24/7 even after you go home

* Baby is with you 24/7 after vaginal delivery

* Very big on skin to skin contact.

* Room service 6:00am to 7:30pm

Cons:

* They don’t do cord blood donation

* No food service after 7:30pm

 

So I have way more pros than cons and the cons aren’t really “big” ones. So Yeah I’m totally over joyed with the place.

I haven’t been feeling the best. I think I have a cold so I think it might be time to crawl back into bed.

My name is Inza and I’m a Groupon whore!

 

I was looking to book my 3D/4D ultrasound. As many of you know they can be quite costly. So I hopped on Groupon.com to see if I could find any deals. Sure enough I found a deal for the Henderson Wellness Center in Henderson, NV  for $35. You get 6 prints PLUS a 10 minute DVD of your session. I signed into my account and found out that I had won $10 in Groupon bucks. SO that took the cost down to $25!!!  I bought it before my free bucks expired and booked it for yesterday. I was in Vegas for my aunt’s birthday so I figured why not make it a family thing. My mom and my aunt went with me. Now my aunt’s daughter will be 47 this year so she isn’t used to all the new cool technology. Her reaction was pretty funny. Kennady went to sleep face down at first. So they jiggled my belly and had me move all around trying to wake her up. Oddly I ate a cupcake before the ultrasound and she still went to sleep.  Finally she turned over but then she put her lil hand in front of her face as if to say NO PICTURES PLEASE NO PICTURES! It was so funny. Then she changed hands and put the other one over her face then put BOTH hands over her face. Oh my sweet mini diva in training. lol

26 weeks!

Well today I am officially 26 weeks. The first 26 weeks of my pregnancy have been pretty lonely for the most part. I’m turning a new leaf. I am going to try to be as happy as I can possibly be. This is supposed to be the happiest time of my life. I will never get back the first 26 weeks of my pregnancy but I will make the best for the next 98 or so days of my pregnancy. I realized I’ve been VERY lucky. I haven’t had too many sick spells or anything. Right now my biggest pain is in my back which of course is normal. Now I must figure out how to be happy and “alone”.
