How big is baby? The size of a Honeydew.
Sleep? I started sleeping with this new extra long pillow between my legs, it's basically as long as my whole leg and it helps SO much with the hip pain. We also bought a new king size mattress and it just got delivered today. I always have major anxiety about spending so much money on soemthing but I think it's well worth it.
Best moment this week? Barrett and I got to spend a ton of one-on-one time together and it was so awesome. I know this sounds crazy but I would spend every second of every day with him if I could, I know he does not feel the same lol. Don't get me wrong, he loves me and loves spending time together but he is less co-dependant than I am (which is probably much healthier!) I went to the doctor today and baby girl is doing great. I passed my Strep B test which is an added bonus! Holy hell do internal exams hurt, ouch! I'm not dialated but my cervix is about half way thinned out.
Funniest Moment this week? Oh this is hilarious, maybe only to me. One of my mother-in-laws well meaning/sweet/foot in mouth friends asked if I had flown recently and told me this long story about how this 300+lb man sat next to her on a flight recently and how uncomfortable it was etc. I responded "Oh I hear you, I hate it when you have a seat next to you and see someone coming that you don't want to sit next to, whether it is someone that has a baby (yes I know I will have a baby and I feel AWFUL for the parents of screaming babies on flights but I would prefer not to sit next to them, shoot me!), someone that 4c-" will clearly not be able to fit in just one seat etc" Well then I understood why she asked if I'd flown when she said "Oh I wonder if that's what someone would think about you walking down the aisle." LOL- for the record, I do have a large belly BUT I fit in seats perfectly normal. I couldn't stop laughing!!
Movement? Same as last week- Oh yes, but different than before, more rolling rather than punches or kicks. Lots of hiccups, poor thing!
Food cravings? Juice and seafood.
Gender? Sweet Baby Girl...with no name :-)
What I miss? Staying up late. We went to an awesome NYE dinner party and all the gals were drinking wine and dancing in the new year but this Momma couldn't wait to get her big booty home to bed. We ended up leaving about a half hour before the ball drop and watched at home cuddled up in bed with our two furry boys, it was heaven.
What I am looking forward to? Getting everything organized in the nursery and wrapping things up at work. This little lady will be here before we know it and her Daddy and I cannot wait to meet her.
Weekly wisdom? Take all the advice with a grain of salt, everyone's experience is different, so don't put pressure on yourself.
Milestones? Baby girl is getting closer and closer to being able to breathe on her own and only a couple more days til she is FULL TERM!
