{Pregnancy Update} 33 weeks

I'm finally nearing the end of this pregnancy and.....{drum roll please} I've ditched the crutches! I'm still not entirely 100% but it's better than being attached to those annoying things 24/7. 

Nesting is in full swing. I've been cleaning stuff out, trashing stuff, and selling stuff. Especially now that I can actually walk! It's liberating to have a clean house again! 

I almost have his little baby nook all done too {post coming soon}. Getting all the bags ready for the hospital {post coming soon too} It's all going so fast and life is about to change drastically! It's totally blowing my mind! Can't wait to see his little face and smell that new baby smell.

Baby is about 4 pounds {about the size of a pineapple} and he's passed the 17-inch mark. His skeleton is hardening and he's quickly losing the wrinkled alien look.

I officially can't wear my wedding ring now. My feet are puffy and swollen and I can't fit into most of my shoes. AND my belly button has been sticking out for weeks. My cravings are still the same. Cheeseburgers are a constant for me but rarely get to have them. Dessert is another weakness. All my ideas of eating healthy during this pregnancy went out the window a long time ago. I tried I really did. But nothing I planned on for this pregnancy has happened. So I throw my hands up. I'm not the boss! :) 

My only favorite thing about all of this has been feeling my baby move around. He kicks all the time mostly when people try to talk to him or touch my belly. He's already so protective of me. {Or that's what I tell myself at least} 

.......Until next time. Hopefully I can get more posts up before baby comes.

{maternity fashion} 29 weeks....Hello Third Trimester

I am in the third trimester now. I am on the last leg of this pregnancy. It feels like it's gone by fast but slow at the same time. It's hard to remember when I wasn't pregnant. A dirty little trick played on moms-to-be I presume. Right when you get used to one part of it everything gets changed up.

So far none of the pregnancy symptoms have come back with a vengeance. I get tired here and there.  Not being able to walk without crutches has made me have more rest than I was anticipating. 

I am now at 29 weeks today. 11 more weeks to go. Life is about to change and it's going to be so strange and exciting. Tiring...but exciting. Before long it's going to be weird to think of life without our little man.

I've been nesting and preparing as much as I physically can.

I've come up with a list of main essentials that I know I need for sure before he comes.

That's put my mind at ease a bit. It can be overwhelming no matter how many kids you have.

(Post my list soon!)

Baby is around 2 1/2 pounds now (about the size of a butternut squash) and a little over 15 inches long. He's still regularly active all the time! His muscles and lungs are maturing and head is growing as well for his developing brain.
