37 Weeks

37 weeks yesterday...no changes as of last Thursdays appointment. She has dropped which has made me feel 100 times better in the breathing area. She is still moving around a lot but should be losing space to move around so much!

Now we are playing the name game again...I was 100% sure of her name for the past few months...but now I go back and forth...I just CANT DECIDE. David likes a couple too which doesnt make it easier. ahhhhhhhh, I need to SEE her! :)

36 Weeks!





I am officially "TERM" yay, which means at this point Baby L could arrive any day now and be perfectly healthy! I am so ready for her to get here...not only because Ive been anticipating this day since July 7th but because Id love to touch my toes again...and breath :) I have definitely been "nesting" as they call it...finding the most random things to clean & organize. This past week at work I cleaned my paper closet?! Usually this would go untouched until the last day of school. At home, Ive washed all linens including the guest room. It is good to go for my mom to stay and help! haha...I cleaned out the frig....I made a dog to do list while were at the hospital. Gathered most things for my hospital bag..hooked up the baby monitor...I mean this list could go on forever!!! Ive even made David start nesting, right now he is changing all the air filters...because Baby L cannot have any bad allergens in the air. ;)

At this point I am just ready to get the hospital part over with and start our lives with our new baby girl.

My work baby shower was this week and it was sooo nice!! Baby L got a really cute diaper bag from thirty-one, gift cards and a baby tub! The cake was my favorite..yumm!

My stats at this weeks appt:

Weight: 154...blah!

HB: 152 & strong!

Gap seriously has the cutest clothes ever!! I am in love with the kimono outfits which are nice when she still has the umbilical cord attached.
I ordered this one as a going home outfit, its so soft!

35 weeks!



Baby Girl is the size of a cantaloupe this week! Her growth is beginning to slow down as most of her systems are pretty mature. I cant believe Im entering my last month of pregnancy, this time has truly flown by. On Monday I have a shower at work which Im really excited for! Next weekend will probably consist of buying all those last minute things that we still need. This week Baby L received another package in the mail this one from my best friend Sharon- the cutest outfits and peek a boo book! I also ordered a monogrammed pink decal with her initials to put above her crib! So stinkin cute!

I continue to hear all the labor stories from random people at the grocery store, primarily because thats the only place I go haha! Today a girl told me she went in for a check-up on her due date, they told her she had at least 2 weeks and went into labor that night! Imagine that! We begin our weekly appointments Wednesday.....

The girls at work have been so HELPFUL. This week they made me a list of what I need to get for myself after I leave the hospital like XL pads, extra tux pads, and lots of colace lol. sounds fun. I also learned I need to get measured for the breast pump. Had no idea. Wow, mothers must be pros at this the 2nd time around.

Hopes this week...my hubby surprises me with another massage appointment. That would be heavenly.ha!

Cravings: anything and everything..ben& jerry choco fudge brownie ice cream, mac and cheese, bberry pom juice :)


This is Angela and I, shes 20 weeks and I was 32.
