Uhm what?

Well baby is head down! Hooray! So happy about that, since I'm pretty sure it was breech before my drive to Des Moines last weekend!
I'm now measuring at 37 weeks instead of right on like I had been prior to this appointment. Baby has definitely had a growth spurt and my scale can definitely attest to that!
I'm now on weekly appointments! Uhm, what? I can't possibly be that far along, can I? Apparently so! I've had more strangers talk to me about the baby in the past week than my other three pregnancies combined! Most ask if this is my girl, and the reactions when I say I don't know the gender are priceless.
Owen turns 2 in one month!! I can't believe that!! My baby!!
We headed to the nature reserve which is realllly close to our house and Barry took a couple pictures of me and Four. 36 weeks. I can't wait to know who's hanging out in there!!

October

Holy cow! I cannot believe the (most likely) month of this baby's arrival is here!! It seems that it's taken forever to get here, yet on the other hand feels like we just found out we were expecting this little bundle!

The nursery is mostly complete, probably I should finish those t-shirt poms I've been dragging my feet to create! And probably I should wash the diapers so they are ready for Four. We need to figure out the carseat configuration for the boys, and eventually install the bucket. All things to do, but nothing terribly pressing.

I have my last appointment tomorrow before weekly appointments, and Barry has a day off mid week!!!!! so we will tour the hospital Wednesday, the day I turn 36 weeks!

It's becoming real, yo! And I'm kind of freaking out! I kind of can't wait to meet this kid and find out who it is that's been hanging out for the past while!

Bi weekly?!

Holy Moses y'all! I have reached a monument in pregnancy. The every two week appointment. Tomorrow I'm 28 weeks, officially the third trimester. I have to do the lovely glucose test this week, fun. Hopefully I get fruit punch, and not orange.

So far I've gained more than I'd like, but am trying to control the weight gain during the third trimester. I need to cut out my love for sweets I guess! This pregnancy has been different for sure, in that I only want sweet things. A few other notable differences, complexion, and hair. I usually love my skin during pregnancy, it's clearer than normal and my hair behaves wonderfully. This time is a totally different story. Thankfully my bangs cover my forehead, but nothing covers my chin! And I've contemplated getting my haircut more during this past 28 weeks than I ever have in my life. But seriously how cite is this cut?

Babies heartrate was 153 and everything looks wonderful! I get to drink the wonderful glucola tomorrow. I know you're jealous!
