Tomorrow marks the start of my 39th week of pregnancy. That means only one week to go! Well… for me, it actually probably means “only one and a half weeks to go!” I had an appointment on Thursday and everything is peachy keen. I realized just last week that I had forgotten the ever important detail of pre-registering myself at the hospital… whoops! I’m just glad I found the paperwork before I showed up and then wondered why they didn’t know who I was or why I was there. Although it would have been pretty obvious WHY I was there… but you know what I mean. 😉
I finally put together my hospital bag this week and put the baby clothes in the dresser. We haven’t purchased any diapers yet, because it will really depend on how big this baby comes out. I would hate to buy tiny diapers only to discover I have a 10 pound baby (knock on wood!) and they don’t fit.
This time around I’m finding it very hard to remember to take pictures of myself along the way. Part of it is due to being so busy with Maddie, and part of it is because I literally have 7 shirts that I like right now, so it seems like the only days I think to take a picture, I’m in the same outfit… again! But I did manage to take a picture this past week, so here I am at 38 weeks. I’m looking closer and closer to being ready to pop!
This baby will be here so soon!
Actually you look way beyond being ready to pop! I remember before Luke was born not being so impatient because I was so busy with the rest of you. It wasn’t that I didn’t want him to be born, but I just wasn’t in such a rush. Plus I knew it was my last pregnancy.
