38 weeks.



So tomorrow I will be 38 weeks, so yea I am jumping the gun a little...give me a break I am totally impatient & I am basically 38 weeks so just play along. So I am beyond ready, this is out of control, can she just come out already? Austin & I went to our toddler class picnic today & I got to hold Sam's little sister, Emily, she's only 7 lbs. & I was holding her thinking 'this is what's inside me right now' & it made me even more ready! The toddler picnic was so much fun because I got to hang out with 'my' kiddo's without having to be the montessori class nazi...it was also nice to be able to really talk to all the parents, they are all so nice! Anyways, I got lots of good advice & was reassured that labor isn't 'that bad'; we'll see about that! Anyways, I am so uncomfortable & Austin & I are both just ready meet little Harlow, pray she comes really soon!!

36 Week Checkup

I went to the "Doctor" (it was really a nurse) a few days ago for my 36 week checkup. Everything looks good, she's in position & hopefully this means she'll make an appearance a little early if I am lucky! The nurse has been doing her job since '75 so longer than I have been alive by 7 years! She said she's never seen a baby that is that active at 36 weeks, I guess she was bending her knee & fully extending several times & this is crazy for this late in pregnancy! She also made a comment about how it looks like she has really long legs, clearly something she got from Austin, lucky girl...hopefully this doesn't mean she's huge! I have gained 16 lbs. so far & they didn't say anything about my weight so I guess it's ok! I will take pictures in a couple weeks, after I get my hair done!

33 weeks update


Harlow is starting to get very strong & I am huge! I have still only gained 14.5 lbs. but have been eating like a crazy person, hopefully the doctor is ok with my weight! I go to the doc in about 2 weeks. I am super uncomfortable & hoping that memorial day will be the day she decides to come out & play! Austin & I are trying to get our apartment in shape before the baby comes but with no storage it's been really hard to organize & it's making me insane, it feels like I live in a storage unit! I am putting up the most recent photo...
