So, can you believe I?m only a few weeks away from getting this alien out of me? The way he moves/pushes my organs around, you?d think he?s an alien. Forreals.
Anyways, not a whole lot to report on this bebe. He?s growing, this I know. Allegedly, he?s 5+ pounds which explains why I feel huge and have a heavy feeling ?down yonder? if you know what I mean He?s still up in my lungs, so I know he hasn?t dropped yet. When he does, that?s gonna be interesting slash painful.
My belly measurements are right on for delivering April 29th. That day is coming up QUICK! I almost can?t believe it?but I can. Time flies when you?re renovating your kitchen writing an ecookbook growing a child!
Some noteworthy things happening:
-I have had a really bad cough for the last 8 days or so. I want to slit my throat that?s how bad it is. Cough drops don?t help. Honey doesn?t help. Robitussin doesn?t help. Vicks Vapo Rub on my chest and feet doesn?t help. I really don?t have any options left. Just suck it up and deal. UGH.
-I?ve self diagnosed myself with?symphysis pubic dysfunction?basically, I get these shooting pains in my inner thighs when I switch from lying on one side to the other side at night. The worst is when I?m getting up from bed in the morning. This combined with my coughing makes me a real treat to wake up to. Right Gordon?! Haha. Apparently, this is a totally normal and common thing for ladies to have during pregnancy. It?ll go away after the baby comes out. Yippee!
-My husband is taking 2 weeks off for his Paternity leave after the baby comes. I?m so excited Some people I talk to don?t particularly care if their husbands are home or not but I am not one of those people! If my husband could get paid to stay home, we?d totally do that! We love spending time together. After I had Brooke, he was still working AND going to school, so I was pretty much left on my own. I?m so glad he?ll have this time with us!
-My Mom is coming for 2 1/2 weeks in May to cook me lots of yummy meals, clean my house, help with the new baby and play with Brooke! We are so excited. My Dad is coming for one of those weeks too I love my family!
-I?m trying my hardest to get the baby?s room finished but it?s tricky when I start involving other people?.like my husband {meaning?he needs to knock down a wall to expand the closet before it can officially be finished. I?m hoping this little dude will be right on time so we can actually have a month to finish everything we need to!
-Did I mention all my kitchen stuff gets here a week before I?m due? AND, it?s all getting installed in the last 5 days up until my due date? YEAH. Talk about serious deadlines!! LOL! At least my husband will be on paternity leave to help out as needed Either way, I?m getting a new kitchen and new baby by the end of April!
-Overall I?ve gained 25 pounds thus far. It?s all in my belly and thighs. Still much less than my first pregnancy, so I?m hoping this weight will come off easily! I fit into my pre-pregnancy jeans 3 weeks after giving birth to my daughter. Maybe I?ll get lucky and things will go just as smoothly?!
And now for some questions:
-What can I do to get rid of this cough? I cannot think of anything else!
-How many of you think I?ll go into labor before I can get my kitchen done? Watch I?m a week late! LOL! OR, maybe I?ll have this little guy right on my due date just like my first pregnancy! Time will only tell!
-What are the best nursing bras? And do you all go so far to get nursing tanks and stuff too? I didn?t have any the first time around and everything worked out just swimmingly.
-How far in advance did you pack your hospital bag? I might wait a week or two and then get one together.
