Update on me at 30 weeks preggers

Hello everyone, A big congrats to all the new preggers and new

mommies. Good luck to all ttc. My prayers are with all that are

undergoing hardships with their pregnancy or ttc.

I am 30 weeks preggers and really feeling it. As most of you know I

left the father of my baby 3 weeks ago. I have to admit that it has

been really hard. I dont miss the junk that he was putting me

through, but I do miss the companionship. My mom and sister have been

great. They make sure that I do not spend my weekends alone. Mom

espcially has been a blessing, she calls me every morning to see how

I am and comes over to get me all excited about the baby. We have

been putting stuff together and shopping for the little stuff that I

still need. She is planning my baby shower for 11/11 and my

grandmother is going to make it from Reno for the shower. I really

dont know what I would do without my family.

The father of my baby boy has been slowly drawing away. He hardly

calls now. I dont know if I should be thankful for the emtional

relief of not hearing from him all the time or more upset because it

is obvious that he is moving on. I fear all the time that my little

boy will not know his father. I know that this may be for the better

because what kind of male role model would he really be. Oh well.

I am up to 12lbs in the gain and my doctor thought this was

wonderful. She would like me to gain around 20lbs total now...this is

more than what I was expecting. I am going to try. I am sick of

eating. Did you ever think you would say that? I didnt. Doc doesnt

think that I will go much past 8 more weeks. It seems that 1st timers

usually go longer than estimated due date though so I am not going to

hold my breath on it.

Well I had better get back to work. Everyone take care!!!!

~Hugs~ Shalonda and baby boy Malachi
