Striving for a transparent & authentic life
At this point, I find this wait agonizing. Despite doing everything in my power to distract myself for the past week, I’m so confused and frustrated every day. I don’t want to complain. I know due dates aren’t exact. I know my body doesn’t work like a computer or a machine and neither does this [...]
I’m officially 40 weeks as of yesterday! Woo hoo! Well, at least by my calculations. The due date in my chart with my midwives is 3/24, so I still have some more time. Our dates are different simply because the wheel they use is slightly different than if you use a phone app or online [...]
I did something crazy that’s just going to throw everything off! Ok, not really. I missed last week’s update and rather than waiting another week and having a four week gap, I decided to do a 35 week update. I know that’s not all that exciting or anything. Can you tell I’m a little wanting [...]
Only eight more weeks to go! woo hoo! I was 32 weeks on Wednesday, so actually more like 7.5 to go. I know I could always be late, but I wasn’t last time, so I’m hoping this baby wants to be just as prompt Let’s see… What sticks out about being 32 weeks pregnant? I [...]
STRESS! You know how pregnant woman are advised to keep their stress levels down? That’s not the way we do things around here. Moving in my third trimester with a toddler in the mix doesn’t really allow for that. Don’t worry, though. I’m dealing with it in the healthiest way possible. I’m burying myself in [...]
I decided to have a little more fun with this photo this time… I took a “normal” one as usual, but I’m including a silly one this time, too. I know, I’m a weirdo little goofy. I’m feeling pretty good. I’m getting a little uncomfortable entering into my third trimester, but that’s to be expected. [...]
As usual, I’m a little late with this post. But hey, I guess that just makes me consistent then right? I’ll be 25 wks tomorrow and I’m feeling pretty much the same as the last update. I’m both excited to meet our little addition and, yet, still hoping the months don’t fly by too fast. [...]
Right now, despite exhaustion, I feel pretty good. I’m pretty sure you can see how tired I am under my eyes in this picture. That is, if you can make out my face with the poor lighting (yup, on purpose!). Today, especially, I feel like March can take it’s sweet time getting here. With a [...]
As you may have noticed, I’ve decide to do these posts biweekly. There’s a little bit of a shadow behind me this time, so I can’t be sure, but I think my belly did grow enough to notice over the past two weeks. What do you think?
