38 weeks...


Nothing new to report this week...we had our doctor's appointment yesterday and everything seems to remain the same...My weight hasn't changed in over a month and my belly didn't grow this week...I am unable to sleep at night now, which happens to every expectant Mom and the Braxton Hicks contractions seem to always be here...which you learn to live with after a few weeks...When we think about it all, in only a few short weeks we will be holding our newest addition to our family, which is very exciting:))))))

37 weeks...

Ok...so the countdown is on!!! 3 weeks left to go and we are all ready!!! My appointment went well this week...no weight gain in almost a month, and my belly grew 2 cms in a week...I had a few minor complaints to make because this baby, not unlike their sister has found a very comfy spot on my sciatica nerve...not so lovely. It takes away from being able to sleep or do much of anything comfortably!! And the Braxton Hicks contractions are now a normal part of my every day life...I wish I had abs of steel like this all the time...ha ha ha!! However, I know soon enough we will be holding our new little addition and all these minor issues will be history!!! The doctor told me that baby is all ready and I kindly asked how to speed things along, he smiled and said just wait:))...Always easier said then done, the last few weeks of waiting seem so unfair!! Hee hee!!!

35 weeks!!!

So, we are 35 weeks and with only 5 more to go (ish!!) we are getting all of the last minute stuff out of the way!! (Remember my picture taker is 5 so the first one is on a bit of an angle!!) Maddie and I have been busy making sure the baby has clean blankets, toys, clothes etc. for when he/she arrives!! I have our bags packed and ready to go...I think we are all set!!


My appointment with the doctor went well yesterday and he just reminded me of what to do when something happens...he told me to get there as quick as possible because he feels things will happen faster this time! The baby is in position and my belly is still growing well!! I put 3lbs on since my last appointment 3 weeks ago...He was very happy with everything!! I now go and see him every week...the time is flying by and before we know it we will (finally!!!) get to meet our new little bundle of baby!!! Maddie asks me almost every day when the baby is coming...not long now!!
