| Week 33 - In a hotel room in Green Bay, Wi before church. |
A few things to note:
-
I've got the 'waddle' down pretty
good these days! I can't help but notice I walk with my feet a little bit wider
and waddle as I go. Not much I can do about that!
-
Slight insomnia -- I feel really
blessed to have been sleeping so good through my pregnancy -- I know it could
be a lot worse! But lately I am waking up way too many times in the night, or
just not being able to fall asleep for hours.
-
Watermelon: my new favorite fruit!
I can probably eat a whole one in one sitting, but I try to share with Ryan and
also make it last for a few days!
-
We bought a rocking chair! My
first big purchase for our little one, and I every time I look at it, it
reminds me of our sweet lil peanut and how I will rock him in that chair. It
brings a smile to my face every time :)
-
I switched doctors... at 32 weeks.
Crazy right? I was really unhappy with the practice I was at and didn't want to
continue to be frustrated, so I got really lucky and was able to switch to a
new practice that I really like! Blessings for sure.
-
Another 'craving' lately is dark
chocolate. I've always liked dark chocolate, but it's the only type of
chocolate I want these days! Ghiradelli dark chocolate with caramel filling --
soo yummy!
-
The pool opened at my gym a few
weeks ago and it's my new favorite thing. I go a few times a week, sometimes to
swim, sometimes to just get some extra Vitamin D and some sun therapy. It's
amazing. And yes, I'm the only pregnant woman around.
-
I am still feeling really good --
no major complaints or pain points! I'm taking my classes at the gym and also
walking around the city a lot with this beautiful 70 degree weather. I even
walked to my last 2 doctors appts (4.5 miles round trip!). Not too bad for 8
mos pregnant :)
-
I had a baby shower in Chicago!
Two friends threw me a beautiful shower, and it was amazing (deserves its own
post). I had such a great time and felt so loved! I also decided to wear heels
(of course) and then went to a wedding that night in heels... needless to say
my body was super sore that night and the next day. Oops. Vanity over pain I
guess!
-
We took our last 'trip' at 33
weeks. We went to Green Bay, Wi for a friends wedding and did a day trip to
Door County. It was so fun and I'm glad we got to squeeze in one more local
trip before JR is here. We are now in Chicago until D-Day! Perfect timing with
summer starting.
-
We are getting so excited to meet
our little one, but I'm also feeling really unprepared and a bit overwhelmed
for the transition. We took a birthing class a few weeks ago which helped us
start to think about labor and delivery, but there is still so much to do and
so many unknowns. I'm still comfortable enough that I like being pregnant more
than I like the thought of delivery --- but I"m sure that will change once
summer heat sets in :)
