Pregnant Questions
1. What week are you in? Any new aches or pains? 36 weeks 2 days. Random cervix punches, but otherwise pretty comfortable.
2. Any milestones this week? Monday will be full term! And today starts my every Wednesday appointments.
3. When is your next appointment? Will anything special happen at that appointment? Appointments are every Wednesday. Today I have the GBS test. Woo?
4. What are you looking forward to this week? Nothing really pregnancy related, other than starting to pack our hospital bag. We are going for a hike on Sunday at the Ice Caves, so that will be fun!
5. Wednesday confession? I have stretchmarks... on my butt and thighs. None on my tummy though, there the baby actually is. I don't understand this.
6. Do you want an epidural? Planning on a vaginal delivery or hoping for a scheduled csection. Planning on a vaginal delivery WITH an epidural. So far things have gone easy and smooth, so hopefully things will stay this way!
7. What are you more nervous about, labor/delivery or parenting? I am more nervous about labor/delivery, because that is something my H and family can't help me with. I know they will be there to support me, but I have to do that on my own, and I am nervous for PP healing. Parenting, I feel confident that my H and I will be a great team and figure things out as we go.
8. What are you most worried about as a new parent? Honestly, I am not really too worried until he gets to toddler+ years. I think a newborn will be tough, but at least he won't talk back for a while
9. What is your favorite maternity clothes item? What are your favorite places to shop for maternity clothes? My favorite clothes are actually NOT maternity. I find myself living in my pre-pg yoga bottoms, and flowy tops. I prefer these because I know I will be able to wear them after. Also, maxi dresses are a life saver this summer.
10. Are you planning on getting maternity or newborn pictures? I've already done maternity photos, at just before 35 weeks. I will PIP below. I do plan on getting newborn photos, and have already arranged them with my photographer.
11. Questions for next week? What are your essentials for hospital bag? Essentials for diaper bag?
