Well it's getting down to the home stretch I'd say.
6 weeks (maybe 5) left to go!
The Dr. thinks I will go to about 39 weeks which would put me the first of August. Cross our fingers!
I have a few concerns:
{1} She will come when my mom is out of the state which is the week of July 24th.
{2} She will come on August 4th. That is Michael's championship game in his basketball league and since he is on the defending champion team, I would hate for him to miss that big game and so would he. But DUH his daughter is more important. (Let's just hope we don't have to deal with that at all.)
{3} She will come in the middle of the night when Michael is at work and I am home alone. I just know I'll be freaking out and won't know what to do and he would be the only one that I would want by my side. Of course I'm going to call my mom first thing but I would want Michael there through it all.
So those are the prayers we need. =]
33 WEEKS 5 DAYS Sorry for the blur! |
Notice I'm not wearing any shoes. The less I can wear shoes the better. Even flip-flops dig in to my poor swollen feet.
I have tried just about anything and I'll keep trying them all again and again just for a little relief!
I should be so so grateful that this is the worst I've had to deal with so I am glad things aren't worse.
Can't see my toes! |
However, I'm glad because this is what I would see if I didn't have a belly in the way! Hello Flinstone feet! |
Mornings are the worst part of the day for me. It's when I am the most emotional for some reason. Maybe it's because that's when I am the most swollen. I wake up and my hands are just numb and I can't make a fist to save my life. It's sooo painful! I also have a hard time being pleasant in the morning. I just want to go to work and hide in my office and never be bothered. Of course that doesn't happen but a girl can dream. After lunch I usually cheer right up.
The good news is we got some stuff done this weekend!
Crib is UP!!!
And we have arranged her room to the layout I want it in and I am loving it. Now I just need the dresser and wardrobe to be all done so that I can start organizing her clothes and things! That is happening this weekend!
Here are some pictures of us Michael working on the crib!
Domer "helping" |
ALL DONE! How cute is this crib! Ignore the fact that her bedding isn't done yet but that is in the works! |
Now here are some pictures of her room!
Yes we still have things piled in that corner but the dresser is getting done this weekend if it kills me! Then we'll (my cousin Tish and I) organize her clothes in her drawers and everything! |
I am so happy with how her room looks right now and I still have more to do!
I'll be hanging Chinese lanterns above her crib along with a banner of her name that my friend Talia made. Then I have a few picture frames and things like that to hang as well!
I can't wait to show it to you ALL DONE!
Now here are some funny pregnancy photos I have found that lighten my emotional mood:
(I hope Domer is like this with Zianna =]) |
I don't have too hard of time bending over but this made me laugh. Oh and when I get into my tuppeware cupboard and they all stumble out over and over, yeah. That's when I feel this way! |
This is how I feel almost all day. But I love it because if I don't feel her I worry. |
STORY OF MY LIFE! I cannot wear any shoes and I cannot make a fist when I would like to the most and punch something! |
Yup. Amen. |
I go to the dr. again tomorrow and I'm crossing my fingers we get some pictures. I'm also crossing my fingers he'll have more to say about my swelling since it has gotten worse since my last appointment. Hopefully all is still well!
Thanks for tuning in!
