Pictures from the Baby Shower on Saturday.
Here's how the baby's doing:
I need to talk to my doctor about my swelling again. It's really worrying me. :/
Halloween!!!!!!!:
Greg went as a Chippendale's Dancer and I'm the Staple's Easy Button. :)
I also found out this week that my last day of work is Nov. 19th. I'm very sad. But atleast I have something wonderful to look forward to.
6 weeks left and November is on it's way. :)
Here's how baby's doing!!! :] :
I had both my showers this weekend! They both had great turn outs and Lizzie got a lot of great stuff. I can't wait to start setting up the nursery. Thank you everyone who came! Last Sunday we had the hospital tour. It made Greg excited and me a more nervous about pushing a person out of me. Tuesday I went to the doctor and she said not to worry about my swelling. My weight wasn't too hot so I don't want to talk about that but I think that I might be retaining water and my doctor isn't worried about it. And my blood pressure is good. :)
So I've had some good news this week but I can't really elaborate until the whole situation is over so I will keep you all updated when it's finally over.
So I'm 31 weeks along. 2 weeks until the baby showers!!! :) I'm so excited! It's exhausting though. I have no energy for anything. And she is like her mommy and daddy in the sense of she likes her space. She keeps stretching out and she feels BIG! I hope she won't be that big when she is born. The goal is to try and get her out earlier rather than later (atleast that's the goal for me). :) I still love feeling her move although sometimes she hurts me. It's crazy to think that I have a BABY in me. Like a whole little person. It's amazing.
I've been having those wonderful Braxton Hicks contractions. And I don't know why they just say they are uncomfortable, they hurt to me. But alas.
Trying to get the house ready for the baby. Work is getting more difficult. But life is grand. :)
Pregnancy does interesting things to your body both physically and mentally that I never fully expected.
A few weeks ago the kids I Nanny for and I were at Kangazoom (a jumpy house play place). The little girl I care for had a Poopie diaper so we went to the bathroom.
You may know that pregnancy makes your sense of smell more intense. Well the smell was so bad that I started to throw up.
While in the process of throwing up (because that's not bad enough) I peed on myself. So we had to drive to my house - an hour and a half away - so I could get a change of clothes.
Luckily my friend and her children were the only ones at Kangazoom with us that day so I threw my jacket around my waist and let them finish playing before we drove to get my clothes.
Needless to say, I now carry a change of clothes in my car. Live and learn.
Please feel free to share your embarrassing pregnancy stories! I would love to hear them, and promise not to tell. ;)
