Getting Closer
Monday, July 13th, 2009I am 34 weeks now but I feel like I am 45 weeks. It is amazing the difference in having a summer pregnancy vs a spring one…I am SO cranky. Plus the difference between the first and second pregnancies have been much different. My poor pelvis and back are all loosey goosey and so I have alot of pain.
My belly is getting very big and I think I look like I am due any minute now. In fact most people are surprised when I tell them August 23 is my due date.
Life is busy at our house because we are moving on July 30/31/Aug 1. We have bought a house and we are so excited. We will be close to my sister in law and in a beautiful neighbourhood. Did I mention yet that I get a craft room!!! (I do have to share the space with Alex’s computer stuff….boooo!!).
Matthew is growing fast, potty training up a storm and talking a mile a minute. I love him SO much and I can’t imagine our lives without him! He has a few phrases he says alot like “whacha doin mommy” and “honeydoo”. He counts holding his fingers up and now misses 5, before it was 7. He loves to pay attention to my belly and his “yittle bwatha”. The other day he had my parent’s fan and he pulled up my shirt to fan his “yittle bwatha” I can tell he senses change is coming because he is sticking close right now and seems more lovey dovey then usual, not that I am complaining. He still loves to eat anything in site. Right now he is living off of fruit, particularly berries of any sort. Alex’s garden is amazing and Matt is loving picking whatever he can to eat. We have had a dozen zucchini’s cabbage, peas, beets, lettuce and various herbs. Matthew is going to have a HUGE pumpkin by the time October rolls around, it is the size of a volley ball right now. Our first cucumber is about to ripen, which is what I have been looking forward to!
I have an appt with the Dr tomorrow (well technically today) and will see how things are progressing. Last appt at 32 weeks revealed that I was measuring the equivalent to 36 weeks and my body was already changing to deliver…hopefully it hasn’t progressed anymore!~
