8 weeks to go... or less
This week we took a vacation with our son to a resort on the Chesapeake Bay. I guess you could even call it a "baby moon" although we had our almost 2 year old with us. The vacation was very nice, and it was the last vacation it would be the 3 of us before our little girl arrives. Summer vacation means pool and bathing suit. Maternity bathing suit. Yikes! Yet, at least I look very pregnant and not just some fatty in a bathing suit. I didn't feel as bad walking around in my bathing suit knowing I was a pregnant lady and didn't have to feel subconscious about my body. Hopefully though, people were looking at the little cutie I was dragging around rather than my fat tummy and thighs. We had some nice dinners while on our trip. Unfortunately, with the big dinners came big indigestion. They say that is a common symptom of someone at my stage of pregnancy. Unfortunately, I didn't have anything to take for it. In speaking with my doctor about it at the last appointment, he said Maalox is best. Next time I know, don't leave home without it.
The nesting phase has begun. (Keith is psyched about that). I am all about getting organized for the baby. I got a whole bunch of clothes from my friend and several weeks ago I did separate it by size. Today, I went into the newborn, 0-3 month, and 3-6 month size and listed all items for each size to see how many I have of each and what I still need. 32 onesies in the 0-3 month size. I think I can open up a onesie store! My friend had a May baby, and my baby is due in October, so she didn't have a whole lot of true winter clothes in the small sizes. I know I will get some clothes as gifts, so I am hoping for winter stuff. I did go shopping today and bought the baby a sweater for $2.70 at Macys. Score!
Next doctor's appointment is on Monday for my 32 week check up. I have an appointment with one of the other doctors in the practice. I also have an ultrasound to check for breech. At 30 weeks, she was still breech. I am hoping that she has turned. Unfortunately, I don't think she has turned head down yet. There is still time.
