Empathy Belly
Aliyah Hendershot
12/27/12
For my pregnancy interviews I interviewed Amy Jordan, Ritta Hendershot, Rexi Dobbs, Stacey Price, and of course myself. These are the questions i asked...
How much weight did you gain?
DId you have any complications?
What were your cravings?
DId you get stretch marks?
DId your feet ever swell?
Did you guess the correct sex of your baby?
What was the best thing about your whole pregnancy?
Amy Jordan: During her pregnancy Amy gained 30lbs during her first pregnancy. She did have complications, she almost miscarried when she was 3 months along and her child had meconium in its fluid. Her cravings were Ryan's Rolls. She did get strech marks. Her feet were swollen but never severe. She had a deep feeling that she was going to have a girl and she guessed right! Amy thought that the best part of her pregnancy was getting to feel her baby girl move around inside and getting to feel her kick.
Aliyah Hendershot: During my pregnancy I gained 26lbs, all in my belly. I never had any complications during my pregnancy until my due date and then I found out that my baby was breech. I had a huge craving for KFC, and then orange juice, bacon, and lemon lime salt. I didnt get stretch marks until a month before my due date, then i got them bad. My feet were only swollen twice and it was because I was in the car for multiple hours without moving. I knew from my first doctors appiontment that was going to have a girl. The best part of my whole pregnancy had to be being able to see my daughter move around and feeling her little feet and toes against my belly.

    The being pregnant part was actually really awesome. I was hungry all the time and got to eat pretty much anything and everything to my hearts content. I was always sleepy but best of all never did I get nauseous, which oh my gosh I was so happy for! You get to go to the doctor ALOT and the list of the things you can do is a short story compared to the novel that is the list of things you cant do. The very first feelings you feel of the baby moving feels like you have butterflies in your stomach and getting to hear the heart beat, now that is one of the best sounds in the world. I read What to Expect When You're Expecting like it was the bible. It tells you everything about the baby, their progress, what they look like at each stage and I was obsessed with it. At about five months that's when you get to find out the sex. That was the day I couldn't wait for. I wanted a girl so bad! I tried hard not to get my hopes up. Don't get me wrong I would love my child either way, but ever since that first day, that second line I couldn't stop thinking the word girl, girl, GIRL! I knew it, even though I told myself I didn't. My heart sank at first when the ultra sound nurse said “Do you see these three dots?” I instantly thought “okay cool its a boy, good thing I still have time to pick out a name” but as the nurse went on she said “congratulations your having a girl.” My mom who was with me just exploded into pure excitement, she had her three grandsons now the first granddaughter, and me, well I felt like I won the lottery. Picking out a name was also pretty easy seeing as how I already picked it out when I was 15, Riley, after my grandfather. I never got to meet him but I've always heard what an amazing person he was and I was in love with his name, but I had to make it its own so I decided to spell it Rylee. After that its pretty much 4 long fat months of you putting baby furniture together, buying clothes,…
