Maternity clothes?

Well I have offically moved into all of John's shirts except for a few that I have left that are comfortable. Bring on the pajama pants! I told John last night on our date night that Im done with Jeans til Miles comes.

Sleep?

No matter what Im up every 2 hours even if its just to look at the clock. I tried benadryl for a few days but it didnt help much.

 

Best moment this week?

Is knowing that I only have 4 more 12 hour shifts after today!!! Im beyond excited.

Food cravings:

Nothing in particular at this point. I have already made a request for the meal I want after I deliver Miles. Chickfila of course!!!!

Gender:

Still a sweet baby boy!

 

Belly button in or out?

Oh its almost out. If I go to my due date it will pop out I just know it.

Movement:

Yes and a lot! I know where his foot and hip/butt are at all times!!! Cant wait to kiss on those feet!

 

What I miss?

Still miss running and you better believe Im counting down the day til I can run again. I have 9 weeks left!!!

What I'm looking forward to:

Im looking forward to seeing the moment John holds Miles in his arms and his heart melts. This little boy has no idea how much he is loved already. I look forward to watching both of us grow as parents! Its gonna be a wonderful and challenging ride that Ive looked forward to my whole adult life!!! Im so blessed to have such a wonderful man to start a family with.

Oh and I have to share how I got my toes done for delivery day:

Bending at the waist and not getting short of breath so dang easy.

The day my water breaks!

Milestones

Went to the doctor yesterday for my weekly checkup and Ive been having a ton of braxton hicks so he decided to check me. Im not dilated or effaced at this moment. Dont think he will check me again til 37 weeks unless I tell him I feel like there is tons of pressure. He has decided to not do a ultrasound at 37-38 weeks because my belly is measuring right now track now. Im starting to get guesses on how much he will weigh. My guess is 7lbs 12 oz 21 inches long.

Maternity clothes?

Yes!!! Went and bought some nursing bras and nursing tops the other day. The nursing top is super comfortable!!

Sleep?

Well sleep has now been hit or miss. Im having nasal congestion issues since Christmas that wont go away. Not being able to breathe is not so fun.

Best moment this week?

My BFPB had her baby 12/28. Almost on John's Birthday!! She so thought she was having a boy and to her surprise it was a girl. She is just adorable and pretty as ever! So happy for her.

Another great moment was John got a Baby Bjorn for his birthday from his dad and we tested it on our cocker spaniel. Here is a picture of a very cooperating Dirk:

Oh and we went and bought our stroller and carseat and had to make sure it was baby ready:

Food cravings:

My sweet tooth is really starting to kick in... Happy all the holiday temptations are over!

What I miss?

Getting out of bed easy. Its a serious to do getting out of bed. 

What I'm looking forward to:

Meeting this little guy! Hurry up February!!
