wrapping up the 32nd week! (january 27th) |
and the 33rd! (february 3rd) |
what’s new with baby: well, by the end of this week olivia was over 4 pounds and past the 17-inch mark! she's losing her alien/wrinkled look and continuing to grow like a weed!
what’s new with mom: mom is definitely hitting that tired and uncomfortable phase of pregnancy! i've been requiring more naps and i'm lacking motivation. i have been doing a lot in the nursery, but i feel like my bursts of energy are very short lived and then i'm just forcing myself to do baby laundry, or put the bumper on the crib, or whatever. when i do sleep at night i inevitably have to get up to pee, and then i lie in bed thinking about what i need to be doing and/or toss and turn because i can't get comfortable. good times!
wardrobe: pretty much all maternity clothes these days. i'm still stretching my jacket over my belly (which miraculously still zips!) and wearing some random big t-shirts and pajama pants.
cravings: i can't think of anything too crazy here. my milk and cookies craving is starting to subside it seems, and i pretty much just eat whatever sounds good. after sharing my love for amy's wraps in my 31st week post my walmart immediately stopped carrying them. grrr.
anything hard? just the sleeping and feeling exhausted thing. overall i'm still enjoying being pregnant, i'm so so so so excited about little olivia and i just love thinking about her and praying for her. i'm getting super excited to meet her, but i'm also praying she'll cook until she's fully done of course!
best moment(s) of the
week: lots of fun things happened these couple of weeks, especially my third and final shower in north carolina on the 27th, and then our birth and baby class on the 1st and 2nd. (i'll be documenting the shower in a separate post!) that class was very helpful but man i overwhelmed with everything i need to be doing and learning! yikes! but i can doing this, right? lots of women have had and raised babies, so if they can do it i can do it, right?! sigh.... just 5 and 1/2 weeks to go! (at the point that i'm finally writing this!)
You can totally do it!! We did the classes and read the books talked to friends, and you still go home wondering what the heck you're doing! Just remember, you can call or message me any time you have a question! You look so lovely--I WISH I could see you & that belly every day!
