I am 32 weeks along, and I am getting anxious. I try not to ever complain because to be honest I am very lucky to have this opportunity to bear children, when so many others cant. I really love being pregnant, however I am now at the stage in pregnancy that I can no longer move, and literally having to chase after a 2 Yr old is a daunting task.
I wish I could say that I am one of those darling little pregnant women that have this tiny little belly and zero fat on other areas of their body, but I cant.. I gain weight in my thighs, arms, backside, you name it. Total weight gain : 37 lbs, and I still have 7 weeks to go!
November 1, or 2 are the ideal dates we would love to welcome baby boy Smith into this world. Please please dont come before then, I need him to have his own birthday. Way to many end of October B-Days in my family!
Baby still has no name, I am feeling a lot of pressure to make up a name like I did with Coasten, so for now we are still brainstorming.
I feel really great, and as of right now there is NO sign of pre-eclampsia, YAY!
I will keep you all updated on the next few weeks, we are so thrilled.. (And so anxious to wear my normal cute clothes again)
Seriously though, you ARE one of those adorable preggo women who I can't help but love to hate(because I know I am going to be as huge as a hippo one day). I can't believe there are only 57 days left to go. Wow. Coast will be a big brother before you know it! :)
ReplyDeleteYou're getting so close! I totally sympathize with you about being pregnant ... it's not tons of fun totally losing your body, especially the second time around. But it is a blessing to be able to bring a little child into the world and you bounce back so quick ... I'm still waiting to fit into some of my pre-pregnancy clothes ... sigh. But sometimes I just have to tell myself to be patient and remind myself how worth it it is. Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteSeriously-it will be so awesome if we have twinner babies. I am with you-this baby better not come before November-I do not want a freakin' Halloween baby!! And although I have never seen you pregnant (you REALLY should post a picture), I AM positive you are a freakin' babe. How could you not be. ;)
ReplyDeletei'm sure you are adorable prego. hope all is well. glad to hear things are going smoothly. can't wait to see the cute baby boy!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so excited for you guys - and you HAVE to put at least one picture up so I can see you. I didn't see you with coast and I am not in Utah so I can't see you with this baby, so for me, post one, or e-mail it to me lisa-marie-00@hotmail.com I really want to see you! Good luck with the last little bit!
