How I’m Feeling: My Baby is now the size of a cantaloupe. At almost 5 pounds, I can feel him/her trying to bust out of my uterus. I carried low with Princess. But, this baby feels even lower! I might as well stay in the bathroom. I’m always there anyway. The pressure on my bladder has got me making constant trips. Sometimes I feel like my water is about to break at any moment.
I do find solace knowing that if I were to deliver now, my baby would do just fine. As I get closer to D-day, the plan is to tie up some loose ends. I’ve given my hubby a list of things to do. So, I’m hoping that we get to them all. We have been able to take some professional family photos, which I’ll share at a later date.
This may be the last pregnancy. I might as well make the best of it!
You look so pretty as usual. 🙂 The last weeks of pregnancy are tough but they were also kind of sad in a weird way to me. I guess because I knew it might be the last as well. I enjoyed being pregnant as hard as it was. I LIVED in the bathroom. I had to go before I left home, when I got where I was going and usually before I left that place. I got to a point where I just told my husband….if I walk off… you know where I’m going because I felt like I talked about it constantly HAH. Oh the days. I’m so excited for you and your family.
Life is about to change but in an amazing way. It will get harder in ways but it will all balance out after a few months or so. Just getting into a routine was important for us. If you ever need any tips…..I’m here. But you kind of just have to go with the flow. I will say this…. If you plan on letting baby #2 sleep in a crib at some point…I would let him/her get use to it early on. Not necessarily making the baby sleep there at night…but if you need to brush your teeth, go to the bathroom, take a shower, get some water, get a snack, change your clothes, etc… I would put the baby in the bed just so baby #2 got comfortable there early. It made transitioning from co-sleeping SO much easier. This was recommended to me from the Dr. Sears Facebook page. We struggled with baby #2. If you guys aren’t co-sleeping…doesn’t even matter HAH. Sorry to give unsolicited advice but I thought I’d share that. Take care.
You are just adorable!!!I can’t believe how small you are still! Not much longer!
I’ve decided to hate you because you’re the prettiest preggo I ever did see.
