A woman who also takes her daughter to storytime and library classes was due around the same time as me and had her baby on Saturday! When her husband told me yesterday I was INSANELY jealous, lol!
Jason asked me if I was scared that giving birth was going to hurt this time because it was so easy the last time around. Thanks hunny! I don't want to dwell on that! I am actually pretty confident it will be just as easy, if not a bit easier (especially since I know what to expect). I'm more worried about timing than anything else!
At 39 weeks...
* I'm at 145 lbs (+25 lbs total gain)
* I'm soooo done being pregnant! I think I have it a lot easier than most women, but it hurts to do anything! My back KILLS and my legs and hips are just as bad. And sleeping is soooo hard when you can't get comfortable, have to pee every 5 minutes and eat every couple of hours. Plus when I do wake up I think about soooo much stuff and can't get back to sleep anyway!
* I think she has dropped a bit, b/c her hiccups are like right there. Guess we will see what the doctor says tomorrow!
* I wish I owned a girdle! haha! I am CONSTANTLY pushing various limbs back inside my stomach. She is so nuts!!! It totally looks like some alien creature is trying to come out of me. Maybe that is why I've been getting so many stares lately... like people will literally stare me down when I walk past, it's so creepy! But I've been getting a ton of complements too, so that makes me feel a little better! :)
Things to do today:
* Pack up Venily's bag for wherever she is going... I don't know why I keep putting this off, I think it just makes me really nervous for her. I almost started crying when I thought about it today!
* Move around some furniture! I decided I want Haven's changing table in our bedroom and our table in Venily's room. (I did the SAME thing the day before I went into labor with Venily, lol, and I didn't plan it that way this time!)
* Put my bags in our van (just in case!). :)
Doctor Appt update tomorrow and hopefully then an "I'm off to the hospital" post! And then birth story! :)
I so can't wait to see this gorgeous little girl's face!!! And Venily's face when she sees her for the first time!!!!!
Good luck at your dr appt today! Did you dr say anything about what he will do if you dont go into labor before you are 40 weeks? I know all drs are different about it...
ReplyDeleteThanks! I know last time he said that he'd induce me if I was a couple of days past my due date. So I'm guessing he'd induce me next Thursday, but that WON'T be necessary!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's funny, we are due the same day, but I am TOTALLY expecting you to have your baby before me! lol! I can't wait to see pictures of your precious little girl, and hear your labour and delivery story!!!
