I cannot not believe we only have nine weeks to go. Baby girl is going to be here before we know it. It still seems so surreal that I have a little girl growing inside me and that I will be holding her in my arms in two months. Her kicks, punches, and other movements are more frequent and more stronger each and every day. She likes to play tricks on her daddy already though. I will tell Mike that she is moving so he will put his hand there and she won't move. As soon as he takes his hand away she will make a big movement that he can see. This will go on for a good 5 minutes or so...super funny!!!
I was reading my weekly e-mail and it didn't say I should start packing my hospital bag yet, BUT I should start thinking about what I want to bring...so IF YOU HAVE ANY MUST HAVES THAT I SHOULD ADD...PLEASE COMMENT BELOW ARE MESSAGE ME ON FACEBOOK! Thanks :)
I had a doctor's appointment this past Wednesday. Baby G's heartbeat was solid at about 152. As of right now her head is down! I'm sure she will move a lot before she finally settles into her birthing position but I'm okay if she stays head down from now until then :) Momma (me) is also doing good! I'm feeling well although sleeping is starting to get uncomfortable. I love sleeping on my back but not supposed to. The best way to sleep is on the left side so the baby gets the best amount of oxygen and other things...although, it is painful for me to sleep on my left side. So, the only way I can sleep in on my right side. I wake up and my legs are all cramped....blah!
Baby Girl Giedd this week....
She is about 16inches long and about 3.5pounds! One source says its like carrying four navel oranges!!! She can turn her head side to side! All five of her senses are working! The only sense she cannot use until birth is smelling; but she can use hearing (this is why mom and dad already are reading to Baby Girl every night before bed), seeing (can sense bring lights), touch, and taste. Her lungs are still not mature at this point...so we need her to stay put...healthy babies are WORTH the wait!!!
Mommy this week (besides the uncomfortable sleeping)...
- I was showing my volleyball girls how low I wanted them to get for their wall sits while holding a couple volleyballs. Although I could get that low, I had to ask the girls to help me get back up! Good thing they like me enough to help...lol.
- Mommy got her first two small stretch marks this week (actually I noticed them this morning). I guess I should be using my lotion a little more religiously. I was not excited about it considering I still have two months left before she arrives. I don't even feel that big....oh well I guess! So, I was hesitant of posting this, but I am a real human person that is pregnant...so why hide it...being pregnant is a miracle and so is the little girl that is growing inside me!!!
So I'm still horrible and don't have pictures ready to post of the house for before and after...although, we have had a little bit of a mice problem...gross. This is the mouse I found this morning while unplugging my computer :P We are going on a SERIOUS MOUSE HUNT before Baby G gets here! I cannot stand it...yuck!
Have a good week, everyone :)
