38 weeks

38 weeks in/38 weeks out

August 11, 2014

Autumn cooked for 38 weeks, and she has been hatched for 38 weeks.

In both cases time sped by. There were moments when I’ve watched the clock tick in both cases but overall I really can’t believe how fast it has sped by. Warped Speed tricks.

Autumn is stunning, happy, smart, and leaves are hearts full. Being a mom is the craziest thing ever but it’s the absolute best.

looking forward to the next 38 weeks and for everything that brings along with it.

38 Weeks- Bump Update

November 17, 2013

I’ll do a weekly bump update so I can look back and see how things progress and what was happening at various points along the way.

7 days to go!

Holy crap! Just 1 week to go!!

It’s been a busy past week with Dr’s appointments and stuff in general. I’ve been trying to get to bed early but it just doesn’t seem to be enough. Hmm… I wonder why I’m tired?!?! I passed out on the sofa just after 8.30 on Sat night.

We also picked up the stroller this week! We picked out the Baby Jogger City Select because we liked how it handled as well as it’s features and adaptability. We know we won’t really be using it soon since The Bean will be in the NICU for some time and since it will be cold as hell once The Bean gets home but it was nice just to get it. Hell, maybe I’ll go stir crazy and need to get out to walk around the mall or something just to get out of the house and put it to good use. ha!

Getting antsy to meet this babe and find out if its a boy or girl!

38 Week Bump Update

Current Due Date: 12/1/13- BUT I’m scheduled for my C-section on 11/25! Thanksgiving in the hospital!

Weight Gain: per 11.14 Dr’s I’ve gained 12.6 lbs total so far

Stretch Marks: none 🙂

Belly Button: even more shallow but still in!

Clothing: looking forward to getting home every night so I can wear PJ’s and sweats. I think it’s the cosy nesting + cold weather + pregnancy

Cravings/Aversions: can’t stop thinking about Shake Shake burgers and Oreos

Sleep: never enough but having trouble sleeping at the same time. good times…

Mood: good, just trying not to think about The Bean’s surgery and its NICU stay

Movement: our mellow baby is just relaxing in there for the most part, plus it’s pretty cramped at this point.

Milestones: a week to go!!!

What I miss: not having pain in my hips

What I am looking forward to: getting through this week to get to the 25th!!!
