I’m definitely counting down now! It’s hard not to rush it! 5 weeks to go…I hope. I’m trying not to get too caught up on my due date because chances are it will be later than that. We finished up our prenatal classes and I really enjoyed them. Not that I will remember a darn thing once labor starts:) I think the baby has dropped or is in the process of dropping. My belly button seems to have moved down along with the rest of my tummy. I’m still sleeping about the same, but I get up several times in the night. I feel like I am constantly in need of potty breaks now! I have a picture that shows how my belly has gotten bigger and lower. At our prenatal class they say it’s usually 2-3 weeks before delivery that the baby drops so that’s freaking me out! The baby is still kicking up a storm and letting me know he/she is in there! My doctor’s appointments continue to be quick, but everything has been fine. Starting with the next appointment I will be going weekly. I am interested to find out what position the baby is in.
I’ve been pretty sure that we will have a boy, but I have had several dreams about having a girl so now I really don’t know what to expect. The baby’s room is done. I have a picture to show you the crib. My mom is planning to do some paintings in the room once we know if it’s a boy or girl. For now, we are leaving the spare bed in the room for guests to stay in, but as soon as baby starts collecting more stuff, it will have to move. The crib is put together, I’ve done all the laundry, and I have sterilized the pacifiers and bottles. Yes, I know, I’m a little crazy! I am a little too prepared. Now I have to occupy myself until Baby comes, but I am hoping to read a few good books while I wait.
We got some pictures taken last weekend of my pregnant belly. They turned out really great! Last night, Ed and I had a little date night. We went to dinner and a movie. I have decided that I probably won’t be going to any more movies unless I just have to see it in the theater because it wasn’t a very comfortable experience, especially with baby bumping into my bladder every so often. Next weekend we are going to the Iowa vs. Michigan State football game in Iowa City. I am really hoping the weather holds out and baby decides to wait until after that to come, but I will probably pack all the hospital bags in the car just to be safe! After that, we will probably be laying low for the month of November. I can’t wait to meet Baby Bit
tner and finally put a first name to our little one!
