Only 3 weeks or so before baby Liefer comes! Todd has started back at Seminary every day and I'm staying at home waiting and finding things to keep myself busy. Many of you have been asking about me and the baby, so here is an update:
How far along: 37 weeks
Due date: Sunday, Oct. 3
Gender: a surprise! The ultrasound technician in MI is the only one who knows!
Names: a surprise, too!
Weight gain: too much to mention. Way more than I would've liked. : ) But that's what's suppose to happen, right?
Stretch marks: none
Belly button in or out: definitely sticking out!
Food cravings: anything sweet--ice cream for sure! (but I was like that even before the baby)
Movements: the baby is very active! He/she likes to move at times when I'm relaxing, like sleeping or sitting on the couch. Not as much kicking, but lots of moving around--especially by my ribs. You can tell he/she is running out of room because it's getting a little more uncomfortable each time the baby moves. The baby's been having hiccups almost every day for about 2 weeks now--that's such a neat feeling!
What I miss: I miss being able to do all of the fun, active summer things--like going for a long walk without losing my breath or having to go to the bathroom ;). I miss being able to bend over or get up off the floor easily. I've been swelling alot lately, so I miss being able to fit in my shoes or wear my wedding rings! But, all that is not a big deal and this is definitely worth all of that!
What I'm looking forward to: meeting our baby in a few weeks! I can't wait to find out if it's a boy or a girl! I'm excited for mom to come down and stay with me for a bit and help me.
Other: The baby is head down and in position to come into the world! The doctor thinks that he/she is going to be bald : ) I'm a little bit dialated already, so that means it's getting closer. I met with ou
Here are a few pictures of the baby's room so far:
