27/40
i can't believe i'll be meeting our little guy in 13 weeks! now that i'm in to the last trimester, things are getting REAL. especially since we're moving temporarily for the summer to st. louis, i'm looking for a doctor and figuring out which hospital i'll deliver in, etc, etc (!!!) i'm figuring out which baby things will stay at home and will be traveling with us. crazy stuff coming up which i'm excited/nervous about. oh, and we discovered the city library this week (i forget how awesome libraries are) so i've been reading several books and educating myself as much as possible about labor and everything pregnancy/post pregnancy. there's so much to learn and be prepared for.

Symptoms: i think i pulled a groin muscle when we were speed walking from parking to get to the jazz game last night so... not a fun feeling
Belly Button in or Out? half in - half out
Happy or Moody? feeling pretty good these days. the other day i was feeling down just because i felt like there was nothing to do or no one to hang out with. so instead of pouting around, i decided to work on putting our office together. i built a square shelf out of the extra wood we have and stained it. i hung pictures on the wall - anyways, that cheered me up and i was productive! (let's just say, i was proud of myself) :) Looking Forward to: baby shower next weekend

I know how you must be feeling about giving birth away from home. We're moving in June to another state and I'm due in September. I just got comfortable with the doctors here!
ReplyDeleteThere really is too much stuff to read about pregnancy/labor. I've been watching More of The Business of Being Born on Netflix. Crazy stuff!
I know, it's stressful! At least I'll have a couple months to prepare before he comes. I'll have to check out that video on netflix! I've never heard of it.
