Week/fruit/other comparison: 35 and a coconut (very large coconut I'm assuming).
What went well this past week? I finally got my c-section scheduled! If all continues to go well, I'll be having DD October 2!
What was the greatest challenge this past week? I only seem to have enough energy to be a functional and productive adult every OTHER day, and I need a day off in between to recover. The problem is that my family needs to be fed, my house needs to be cleaned, etc EVERY day.
GTKY: what are you most looking forward to about Fall (other than having a baby, of course!)? I'm most looking forward to being able to enjoy the outdoors again. DS loves being outside and even my DH will come out to the park occasionally in the fall. Plus there's always our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. It'll be extra-special for DH and DS to pick out a pumpkin or two together now that DS is old enough to enjoy it.
Week/fruit/other comparison: 32 and Squash now and Durian (whatever that is...) on Thursday - 33 weeks!
What went well this past week? I found something to wear during labor that isn't the horrible hospital gowns! And I found it on clearance! Also baby girl has so many clothes now just for people donating them to us. We haven't even had our shower yet! I don't know what I'm going to do with all of them.
What was the greatest challenge this past week? Getting out of bed and going to work. I am SOO not motivated to function right now. All I want to do is lay on the couch/bed. Sitting hurts my tailbone and I have horrible pelvic pressure. So when I stand up it takes a few minutes before I can even get my legs to move to walk.
GTKY: what are you most looking forward to about Fall (other than having a baby, of course!)? I can't wait for cooler weather and pumpkins and Halloween! Halloween is a big thing at our house and I can't wait to get all our decorations out and up and pumpkin EVERYTHING!
~~ October Siggy Challenge - Amazing/Horrible Pregnancy Costumes ~~
baby shower was a success and so much fun getting to just relax with friends and family that I dont get to see very often. Also, DH is finally realizing that baby is coming soon and we still have alot to get finished before her arrival
What was the greatest challenge this past week?
ORGANIZING! why does it seem like I get her room cleaned up and fixed the way I like it, to turn around and have a million more things to do. My type A personality has really been coming out this last week.
GTKY: what are you most looking forward to about Fall (other than having a baby, of course!)?
Oh I love Fall!! For one, my 22 birthday yay! 2, all things fall, pumpkin patches, corn mazes, jam, apple pies, crisp cool weather, so ready!
35 weeks today, baby boy is a coconut and my 4 year old thought that was hilarious:) He keeps asking when the baby will be a watermelon...
What went well this past week?
Pregnancy wise not much change, but in life in general DH has continued to be an awesome guy stepping up with the kids and house cleaning. Smells are seriously getting to me and thanks to him I have only had to do dishes like once a week for the last 2-3 weeks. It's the little things like that make me seriously happy.
What was the greatest challenge this past week?
Rolling over, Sleeping and getting my pants on all really suck right now.
GTKY: what are you most looking forward to about Fall (other than having a baby, of course!)?
Boots, Leggings, and Tunics!! Very excited that my first 6 months of losing weight will be easier to disguise with winter clothes. Oh and EVERYTHING pumpkin: pumpkin spice latte's, pumpkin decorations, pumpkin rolls and pies, pumpkin patch, pumpkin carving all of it!! Bought baby boy a cute outfit from carters with a pumpkin on the booty yesterday:)
Week/fruit/other comparison: 35 weeks/35 days to go!
What went well this past week? My husband and I packed up and went on our last road trip to visit friends before baby comes. Also finally found some energy to get the house in order and get the nursery together. Now, to cook some freezer food for after the birth of baby.
What was the greatest challenge this past week? I second the rolling over, sleeping, and putting pants on.
GTKY: what are you most looking forward to about Fall (other than having a baby, of course!)? October in my house is World Series time. Ahh, the agony! I also love getting the little trick-or-treaters. We just moved into a very family centered neighborhood with lots of kids so I'm thrilled to see all the costumes and put out my fall decorations! And, getting to enjoy some hot coffee or hot chocolate while bundled up in a sweater. Mmmm.
