ABOUT 6 weeks left. . .

I can't believe how soon our little man will be here. Right now I am still SUPER excited and only a bit anxious about the labor and delivery part. I figure I need to think less about HOW he gets here and keep the priority as to WHEN he is finally here. The pain and process will be what ever it needs to be.

DH noticed the slight beginnings of stretch marks on the underside of my BIG BELLY. I was hoping they would skip me this first time, but on the other hand the last time I wore a bikini, or showed by tummy in public was at least 10 years ago anyways!!

Getting more tired these days and need to take more breaks through out the day, feet have started to swell on occasion and hips are really starting to ache more. Another ache down there started on Friday, I assume its baby moving down.

Last ultrasound on Thurs only showed my placenta moved .4cm. The Doc wanted at least 1 full cm. We find out more June 10, and I will update again on how that affects delivery (will he let me go "naturally" or C-section??)

Take care.

I AM HUGE!

Wow! I am big, at 32 and 1/2 weeks I am on my way to getting some serious stretch marks soon (none yet). Yes, there is only one little boy in there!









At our last Doc appt last Thurs we found out that my placenta is slowly moving up and we are currently on the borderline of C-section or natural delivery. Now I'm getting more anxious realizing that I may have to actually push this little boy out myself. I can do it . . . right? **Just smile at me when I start to freak out :)**

Still feeling good and keeping up with work. Did throw in some breaks just to get through the days on my feet (starting to get some swelling towards the end of the day now).


Here's mine and DH's baby pics I copied and put in the nursery so we can see who he's taking after as he gets bigger.


The salon is coming along at a nice manageable pace.


Work in progress, what a mess!!

I'm still here . . .

Just wanted to pop in and let you know I was still here. All is going well and keeping busy with all the prepping for our little man while taking care of work stuff and prebooking clients for next month.

We had a ultrasound on Monday the 4th and our little man is 3lbs. 1oz. already and looking good. My placenta is still low lying so we will find out more at our appt tomorrow morning.

Plenty of pictures (U/S, nursery and salon) to come soon.

Hope all is well with my expecting bloggers!!
