One week left!

IMG_7412

I know, I’m getting huge Haha!

We are really excited that this pregnancy is nearing the end. We get to meet our little guy soon. Our son is really excited to meet his brother. He always wants to lay down with me and put his stomach to my belly and feel his brother move. He always says “Mommy, feel brother”. And when he feels his brother move he gets the cutest “surprised” face and says “Brother moved” and starts giggling. Its so cute! I absolutely love it.

We have scheduled an induction date also but will keep it a secret. I do not want negative talk about inductions or the pressure of “is the baby here yet”. It might sound kind of extreme but I have already had a negative comment from someone about it so I will keep it to myself. And also about me possibly being alone while in labor. We do not have anyone to watch our son so my husband may have to leave the room. I actually am fine with it and do not mind at all. But when I mentioned it to someone they immediately went to “what if something goes wrong”. I just cannot start thinking that way since I already started getting anxiety from giving birth. I am at a “clear headed” stage about birth and really want to keep it that way! ha. Hey, think of it this way. Back in the day no one could be in the room, just the mother. I do not need an audience, ha ha

I also am super happy this is the last week because it is getting really hot here. This week we are at the top the 80’s and being this pregnant….not so much fun.

I am also super happy to have not gained as much weight as last time and just yesterday I detailed our vehicle and got a ton done. I am so thankful to be mobile, working out still and getting stuff done. Last pregnancy was not as “fun” ha!

I have not been blogging a lot in the last half of this pregnancy because I have not thought about it all that much. But, I will be doing more blogging soon. I really love to blog and cannot wait to have more stuff to post!

Happy Memorial day weekend

 

Stay happy and live simple

  1. If your son is up for it, you may be able to ask if an extra nurse, aide, social worker, etc. would be available to sit with him…either in the room with you guys or elsewhere…so that your husband can participate in the delivery. Also, make sure your husband keeps breathing throughout the process so he doesn’t pass out and hit the floor! lol 🙂

    Early congratulations and wishing you a safe and happy delivery! 😀

    1. I thought about that and would really hope someone would be able to help in that way. We are bringing a lot of things for him to be “entertained” and hoping that will work also 🙂 As for the husband, he almost passed out last time! So it may be a blessing in disguise if they have to leave the room. Haha! Thanks for the advice 🙂

      1. lol! My pleasure; guaranteed there will be someone more than willing to help you out…maybe even a sweet grandma volunteering her time as a Candy Striper.

        And definitely make sure your husband remembers to breathe. As a nurse, I’ve been involved in several deliveries but still found myself consciously reminding myself to breathe when our son was being born. It’s an obviously intense moment and holding your breath just sorta happens without even realizing it. Funny how the brain tends to like a steady supply of fresh oxygen! lol 🙂
