Thankful for feeling as well as I do at 38 weeks pregnant. This pregnancy has been hard/exhausting trying to take care of toddlers, but when I think of how incredibly miserable I was being pregnant with twins (and only making it 34 1/2 weeks), I really can't complain.
I'm thankful for being done with work for months. I've worked very hard the last few months and am exhausted. I am looking forward to having a little time to nest and recharge before the baby makes his debut!
Thankful for FI who has been doing so much laundry on his own without complaining (almost). And not talking back when I tell him we need to wash all the knit baby blankets (they smell like other people's houses which is so nasty to me right now)
I'm thankful for my wonderful husband. I've been feeling pretty crappy after working my 12 hour shifts the last week or two. While I worked yesterday he did all the cleaning I would normally do on the weekend plus more (he cleaned the shower, toilet, sink, mirrors, bathroom floor, kitchen floor, did the dishes, did laundry, vacuumed, dusted the house). He always helps with laundry, dishes, and vacuuming, but I was so thankful that I could just relax today instead of worrying about the cleaning that needs to be done. He also does this all without any complaining. He's fantastic!

I know that I said yesterday that I'm thankful for my mom and stepfather living close and being so helpful, today I'm thankful that my mom is healthy. Semi-repetitive but H found out today that his best friend's mom passed away after dealing with health issues for a while, so today I'm specifically grateful for her health. She's a 7-year cancer survivor so there were some scary years there, I'm so glad that they seem to be in the past.

I'm thankful for colleagues who will step right up and cover my classes when I go home with baby-related pains. It's nice to know my kids are in good hands!
I'm just thankful for all of this and the whole process. I am thankful I have our son and my husband, a nice home, and stable income. I am thankful to be able to write children's books that people around the world to their children before bed. I am thankful that even through some struggles the baby endured in this pregnancy he has persevered and will be here in about one week and I am thankful for everything I do have, because I could be enduring tragedy, pain, life struggles or worse. So I am most thankful for what is not happening in my life and praying for those not so lucky. We all have struggles so I am thankful that at least so far, I don't have many to complain about.
I'm thankful that after all the stress of the high bp over the last 7 weeks, that I've officially made it to 37 weeks. While I know it's considered early term, it was my drs goal to get me to this point. Everything else is bonus time! Woo Hoo!

Day 3 - I am thankful for my job....even though it's really tough and
I'm ready to be on maternity leave, I really do love what I do and
getting to work with children every day.
Day 3: thankful for coworkers finally stepping up to the plate and taking it seriously that I could go any day! And thankful that baby A looked "beautiful" on her monitor today while I was in L&D for a false alarm!
I'm thankful that my ILs got it together to plan my birthday dinner for Tuesday a week before my scheduled induction and 4 days before my birthday just in case I go early so I won't miss out on my birthday. I still feel like I hit the jackpot on IL lottery especially after ExILs.
I woke up in a great mood, I think, because my labor buddy is in labor (I found out during a MOTN pee break!) and that makes it so much more real…and I'm so grateful for the information, wisdom, and support we've all given each other for the past 9 months!!! I feel really informed and prepared (as much as I can be) for this next journey of pushing this LO out, and that is in part to all of YOU!
TTC 3/2012; IUI 2/26/14; EDD 11/23/14; DD born 11/21/14!!!
Thankful for my obgyn who is always on the ball. She knows her stuff, which makes me feel more at ease as a FTM. I always leave her office feeling super supported.
I'm jumping in late on this, I missed days 1-2 so I will do them all at once
1 - I am thankful for this baby boy still growing inside me, getting ready to come out anytime now!
2 - I am thankful for my Mom, who came to visit last week to help me finish the nursery and who has taught me so many things. In particular that she was never afraid to talk to me about sex/safe sex - which is how I'm having a baby now at 34 with my beloved husband and not 10 years ago with who-the-heck remembers who?
Today - I am thankful for feeling my baby moving inside me this morning. He's been quieter the past couple days and I was starting to get worried. I hope it just means he's resting up for when he comes out to meet us!
