32 Weeks

8 month mark Whoohhoooo!! Eight weeks to go at the most! Finally I am feeling the end is in sight. I finished Emily's room and her crocheted blanket!! I am done preparing for her early, because I feel terrible right now. James and I both have this weird feeling that I am not going to be able to do very much the next few weeks. Probably because the bigger she gets the less I seem able to do. I can't carry laundry down anymore, and I can barely do the dishes with having contractions. I think it has a lot to do with her positioning, she is low and all in the front. I don't think she is laying quite head down yet, she still seems sideways! I don't know why this pregnancy has been so hard on me, but I will be glad when I can hold my baby girl and know I baked her for nine months despite all my whining... Pregnancy really is a miracle and I think that is why it is so exciting for everyone who has a loved one who is. Here is a picture of me at 32 weeks 1 Day! June can't come soon enough!

31 Weeks

Stretching, heartburn, chocolate cake, braxton hicks, and more heartburn...that is about what I would say sums up 31 weeks. I am tired, I go to sleep at 10, and wake up at 7 tired. I am having a harder time sleeping now that Emmy is getting bigger. And boy is she getting bigger,I feel her moving in my ribs and my bladder. I am almost done with Emmy's room, and her knit blanket is done. I am almost done with her crocheted blanket and I washed all her clothes this week. I am anxious about the next few weeks, we have a lot of appointments for Evan and Makayla that will be very stressful and time consuming, so I feel like I need to be ready for Emmy like she was coming tomorrow, because May is going to fly by. Emmy has hiccups and is kicking my ribs, so I think she is done with my rambling. Here is a picture of me at 31 weeks 2 days!

30 weeks

I am huge, I ate way to much candy this week and started having braxton hicks. But...on the plus side I only have 10 more weeks!!! AHHHHHHH! Seems like time is starting to fly and I am feeling so unprepared. Oh well, I am sure I will get it done. I think Emily is starting to move into position now, she has made a lot of big uncomfortable wake me up from my sleep moves the last few days. I didn't take a picture this week but am going to include my maternity pictures my mom took last weekend. I love them.

29 Weeks

Well, I passed my diabetes test, got my rhogam shot, now I just wait. Wait for Emmy to get fatter and fatter and then push her out of me. I am feeling just tired, I am so grateful that my body is able to do this, but I am hoping to get into better shape before we do this again. And yes... I do plan on doing this just one more time. James and I have both had very clear inspiration on the number of children we should have. Six is our magic number. I think I will be happy when I am done having children, but also sad that part of my life is over, but mostly happy. I have had a lot of issues with leg swelling this time around and heartburn. I have never really dealt with those issues very much. Every time is something a little different. My weight gain has been ridiculous, but I am going to try to curb it these last couple months, I think a lot of it is weather change though. The warmer weather is making my body retain water a lot. Here I am at 29 weeks 1 day, and yes that is Top Gear in the background!
