People.. our little girl is due to come NEXT MONTH! Jason and I have felt like this pregnancy is rushing right on by and it kind of freaks us out! I have honestly been pretty nervous about going in to labor. I have had dreams where I go in to labor while Jason is working a graveyard shift and I can't reach him on the phone and no one is willing/able to take me to the hospital.
I think I am mostly nervous about not knowing. With Ollie we had to schedule an induction due to complications, so we knew a few days in advance that we would be going to have him and were able to make arrangements. This time we have no idea when or how it will happen! Only time will tell I suppose!
UPDATE:
-How far along?: 34+ Weeks
-Weight gain: 24 lbs overall!
-Sleep?: Pretty uncomfortable! I definitely don't feel very rested when I wake up.
-Hardest moment(s)?: I got my TDAP vaccine a couple appointments ago and I experienced just about every possible side effect. For a couple days I had fever, chills, severe headache, body aches, fatigue, etc. It was a nightmare. Thank goodness for priesthood blessings!
I've also continued to experience pretty bad pelvic, hip, and lower back pain. The first half of this pregnancy was so much easier than my pregnancy with Oliver, while the second half has been harder.
Oh, AND when people ask me how much longer I have then respond with "Oh wow, you have a long way to go" (I've felt like it's flying by so this comment makes me suddenly feel like it's going slowly) or "Man, you already look like you're ready to pop!"(as if I don't already feel like a whale as I struggle to waddle even two feet).
-Best moment(s)?: Opposite from the last question..when sweet people have complimented me on my looks. Things like "You are the cutest pregnant lady ever!" really help me to feel confident.
I also made a cute car seat cover with friends. It was so fun and got me so excited!
-Food cravings?: My sweet tooth lives on! I also love popsicle's. MMM!
-Belly button in or out?: My tummy is so stretched out that my belly button is either being stretched flat or slightly poking out (depending on my position).
-What I miss?: Moving around without pain.
-What I'm looking forward to?: I look forward to my weekly doctor's appointments! I love going in and seeing my progression.
