What's up I'm Haley.
I've been on BG for... uh... a couple months now and I love it here
! I like some of the teen parenting support, even though most people on here don't really have it
, what is here is nice to have
.
My boyfriend Garrett (who is 2 years older than me, almost exactly, by 5 days
) are expecting our first baby
. He's a boy, and we're going to name him Holden
.
(there's ultrasound pics below)
Feel free to parentank me! I like friends

How many weeks are you?
Uhm... 21 weeks, 5 days
How are you feeling?
I'm alright. At least I stopped throwing up for the most part.
Can you still sleep on your tummy?
haha. haha. haha. No I bought a pregnancy pillow though and it is AMAZING! I never sleep anywhere without it. It's funny cuz I stay with Garrett on the weekends and so twice a week I'm lugging this thing from one house to the other!
Can you still sleep at all?
It's hard sometimes when he's kicking me I can't fall asleep at all.
What's your stretch mark count up to?
Don't scare me like that. They're barely there yet, not dark enough to see, just feel. I haven't counted. Don't make me.
Oh the joys of pregnancy ... what's been your favorite one so far?
Uhm... probably the ultrasounds. I love seeing him! Kicking.... that's a fun one. I like to feel him kick. It lets me know he's healthy.
Least favorite?
Morning, noon, and night sickness for the first 3 1/2 months!!!
How was your last visit to the doctor?
AWESOME! WE GOT AN ULTRASOUND AND IT'S A BOY!!!!
What is the sex of the baby?
Boy!
Do you have a name chosen yet? (What is it?)
Yep! His name is Holden. Holden Smith. No middle name as of yet.
What was the last thing you bought for the baby?
Garrett and I just bought him some.... what are they called? Snugglies? Baby-wraps? They're like pouches with flaps that wrap the baby up.... IDK.
What do you still have left to buy?
***Shorter list: what do we already have:
2-3 boxes of clothes, a crib, a playpen, a boppy pillow, a breast pump, a bouncer, a swing, a dresser.
How's the nursery coming?
Everything I just named is set up... well, at least down there and fairly organized.
When is your baby shower?
November 7th!!!!
Or how was your baby shower?
I hope it goes well! My cousin is planning it
When do you think your little one's birthday will be?
Well, the first doctor told me January 14th. But my OB-GYN has estimated January 16th. I think it will be January 15th just because my boyfriend Garrett actually already has a son. The girl had him on her 18th birthday, January 15th. So her b-day is Jan. 15, Dominick's birthday is Jan. 15th, and it would just be Garrett's luck to have both of his sons have the same birthday.
MY MOM JOKES THAT GARRETT NEEDS TO JUST KEEP HIS PANTS ON EVERY APRIL, OR HE'LL HAVE BABIES EVERY JANUARY. LOL
Anything else you want to share?
I'm SUPER-PSYCHED TO MEET MY SON HOLDEN!!!
