My body: I had a few days where I was pretty uncomfortable, but since then I have felt really good. When I keep myself busy, I feel much better (because I am distracted, I am sure.) I have been having some crazy dreams and have to write this one down…I was at church with 2 day old baby b/c I really wanted to show him/her off to my friends (who in my dream all went to my church.) The baby was in the carrier and I was such a proud mama, gently supporting the head and talking with friends. I realize at this point that I should probably be at home with a 2 day old baby and not out and about. So, I left a garbage bag full of donations at the entrance of the church and start to my car to head home. I got in the car and think “where is the baby?” At this point, I realize that the baby is in a plastic bag that I left by the door of the church. So, I drive my car over to pick up the bag. Inside the bag is my baby, which has turned into a chicken dinner (WHAT????). Specifically, the baby was now a dinner roll. So, I carefully pick up the dinner roll to put it in the car seat. I had a very hard time getting the dinner roll baby into the car seat, because “he/she” was so small. I remember thinking that the baby had lost his/her facial features at this point. That was the end of the dream…how crazy is that????The baby:
Weight: 7.2 pounds
Length: 19-20 inches
Interesting fact: The baby gets the hiccups all the time now. He/she is most active between 8-10 am and 5-7 pm.
What’s going on with us: Jonathan continues to add finishing touches to the basement and is so close to being finished. We picked up the glider from my friend this week and it fits in the nursery perfectly. The nursery is 100% finished and just missing a baby:) The last few days, I have started to have a lot of different emotions about labor, delivery and the arrival of the baby. I am so anxious for things to get started but am nervous too.
