went to a baby shower

went to JR’s baby shower today and gave her our gift. i am not comfortable in social situations these days but i did my best. i did get over stimulated because there were so many people who showed up. one girl there said the same thing. we got congratulated by everyone too which was nice but i never know what to say. the set up was really cool. Megs did a good job putting it together. the theme was pink and black. i plan on having mine whimsical, forest fairy theme 🧚🏻‍♀️. I’ll probably have mine in November before Thanksgiving or first week of December before Christmas. her bf told me i look cute pregnant but little did everyone know, it’s mostly bloating for me right now 😭 it’s gotten so much worse and painful. i started hurting at the baby shower and all i had was some of the snacks they laid out. albeit it wasn’t healthy. i still ate not anymore than usual. let’s see, i ate 3 pork sliders (so tiny sandwiches), some spinach dip and crackers, pasta salad that didn’t have much pasta in it (was mostly greens). i drank a whole bottle of Fiji water and a small cup of lemonade. bloated me up like a whale. 

tonight for dinner i had salmon and quinoa with sausage and shrimp in it.  all anti inflammatory and healthy food. i did have a caramel apple and a Yasso bar. but all in all i ate pretty regular so idk what to do about this bloating. maybe it’s the caffeine and i need to cut back on the iced lattes. sigh. so yea my belly isn’t big much yet cuz of baby, but it’s so bloated i look 6-7 months pregnant. 

bf asked Paige if she can draw up and design my baby shower invites and she agreed to it. i plan on having like how a stork carries a baby but have a fairy carrying a baby instead with some vines and purple flowers around the border with maybe some fairy glitter. ✨ i know she’ll make it pretty.
