Well we are in the 30's people!
30 weeks pregnant!!
10 weeks (or less) to go!
I seem to be off a week since this week I am actually
31 weeks but am posting about 30 weeks.. ha oh well.
I am getting anxious, nervous, excited, nervous
overwhelmed, happy, nervous..
hahah.. Those are my emotions from day to day.
I have no idea what to expect with my body in these next several weeks
or do I know what to expect when I actually go into labor
and have to take care of another human being.
Sometimes I am thinking
'Oh my gosh I can't wait to meet him, I just want to dress him cute
and snuggle up all the baby cuteness'
Other times I'm thinking..
'How is this all going to work out? ..school, work, baby, husband..'
And of course..
'Am I seriously going to be able to deliver my baby?'
Legitimate thoughts that go on in my head.
This week has been pretty uneventful compared to last week..
so that is a good thing.
We have our 31 week check up this Friday so hopefully everything
checks out great.
We finally ordered a crib and got that in the mail this week.
Adam and our good friend Ladd set that up for us.
It's cute I am glad I chose a white crib!
I think it looks awesome against the dark navy wall.
I had to capture some moments of the 'setting up the crib' process.
I am excited to have my shower and then be able to really
start organizing and seeing what we NEED.
I did order a dresser too so that should be here soon
and we can start getting everything put together.
I really can't believe I don't have very many weeks left
and I really have to start cherishing my time left
and getting seriously prepped for whats to come.
I tried signing Adam and I up for a child birth class but he had to work
all day February 15th which was a Saturday
so I am kind of hoping we can get a different class in soon.
I really do want to take a class even though I'll be begging for my epidural.
I also got a terribly bad cold this week which really put me down
for like 3 days! It was miserable and right over Valentines day.
I am feeling much better today so that is good.
Hoping I can go all of pregnancy without any more sickness.
I've gotten a bad cold twice now being pregnant and I do not recommend it.
I haven't had much of an appetite lately.
I am not sure why usually I'm hungry all the time.
Maybe he just decided to not go through a crazy growth spurt
or something and make me gain 20lbs in a week, who knows.
Luckily I've been able to keep my wedding ring on
I am secretly hoping i'll be able to leave it on through out the whole
pregnancy but we will have to wait and see.
It is snug on there for sure.
One thing in particular I did kind of crave this week was
this Cabbage Salad with ramen noodles my mom makes
I called her one day saying I had a pregnancy request..
She made the delicious salad, I've already eaten it so I'm hoping
she'll make some more for me!
Well other than those few things I'm still moving right along
and getting more and more excited to meet
baby Holden.
Best moment this week: Just feeling him move around more and then getting our crib set up! :)
Have you told family and friends: Yes
Miss anything? being able to do household chores and not feel tired and sore after 1/2 hour. . I seriously can't do much without feeling so sore and hot after awhile.
Movement: Yeah! My placenta is on top of my uterus though, so I guess lucky for me that he does not jab and kick me so hard that I feel everything little thing. But we have been feeling a lot more movement lately than ever before and I love it. I don't think I'll ever get sick of the movements.
Food cravings: Nothing specific. . just more hungry. although I did want this Cabbage Salad.
Anything making you queasy or sick: No thank goodness!
Other pregnancy symptoms: Swollen ankles & feet every day usually, thicker hair (bonus), sore back after just a little while of standing, numb right leg and then numb left leg while standing too long (siatic nerve i think), at the point where Adam has to help me out of the car by like pushing me from behind or grabbing by the hands, haha. . i'm sure its awesome to see.
Have you started to show yet: haha, yes!
Gender prediction: Boy! Definitely a boy at our last ultrasound.
Labor signs: no nothing yet.
Belly button in or out? in.. but so stretched it looks disgusting.
Wedding ring on or off? On
Happy or moody most of the time: I think happy most of the time! I do have a lot of different emotions though.. a lot of anxious feeling for the upcoming weeks but I think all around I'm excited and happy.
How’s hubby doing?? He's doing pretty awesome. Loves to try and feel him kick and this week he put up the crib. he is always wanting to make sure we are getting everything ready. He makes sure I have ordered our dresser crib and everything.. which I like. He is in preparation mode!
Baby preparations: Needing to still pack my hospital bag.. I did go to Target a got a few essentials to put in it. . Already pre-registered at the hospital, so that's good. And Adam put our crib up this week! We finally ordered that!
Looking forward to: My baby shower next weekend.. I am so excited for that. I am also excited to start organizing all my baby things.

How far along? 30 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: oh like 25lbs already. :(
Maternity clothes? Yes, duh.
Stretch marks? yeah unfortunately my stomach has not survived going without stretch marks.
Sleep: not so great lately. I am trying to get comfortable from going from side to side and then if I'm awake I kind of have this mind-racing thing.. I just feel more anxious I guess.
