34 Weeks!


I can't believe how fast August went! It's crazy to think that in just a matter of weeks (3 - 6) I'm going to be a mom. I still haven't gotten used to the idea. I think I'm just starting to get used to the idea of being pregnant!

Things are going ok. I'm starting to get really uncomfortable. I'm tired all the time. My hips feel like a Thanksgiving turkey wishbone. And my reflux has hit an all time level of nasty. My blood pressure is still high, so I'm on weekly doctors visits now (so sick of going to the doctor...). My allergies are also horrible at the moment, and I'm resisting taking anything for them.

There are also plenty of good things to go along with that long list of maladies. Our little one is stronger and more active than ever. The result being that I feel him constantly. My stomach moves with each kick, punch, and roll. Apoorva can feel him every night. It's amazing to think that there is a little baby in there doing all that. My nesting instincts have kicked in full force and the apartment is nice and clean :-) I'm lovin that.

And I think it's really starting to hit me that I have a long list of "to-do's" and not much time to them in. I still have to make a big order from diapers.com to some essential stuff like some cloth diapers, our stroller-car seat adapter, and a freaking diaper bag. We also still need to install the car seat and have it inspected. And those are just the essential things that need to get done. There's a huge long list of things that would be nice to get done before the baby is born. I better get moving!!!

I want this...


Here's the description from the company:
"The Beaba Babycook is a super versatile compact countertop appliance. It acts as a steamer, warmer, blender and defroster all in one! With the Babycook, you won't have to go through the hassle of using multiple appliances. Simply place your vegetables, fruits, meat or fish in the Babycook, steam and puree. It's that easy! In less than 15 minutes you can prepare fresh and healthy food for your little one that still contains all its nutrients and is free of preservatives, unlike store-bought baby food. You can even use it to reheat or defrost precooked foods."

AND, it's BPA free.

I know I don't need it right away, but I'm definitely going to buy it later down the road before our LO starts to eat solid foods. I know I'm going to make our own baby food using organic fruits and veggies. This will make it easier! It's sad that I'm so excited I found this product :-)

31 Week Bump

Tuesday, August 4, 2009

Yea, I've been gone for awhile...

July was a busy busy month. But the good thing is that we've almost got everything for the baby bought and ready. Just some small last minute things left and the stuff that needs to get done closer to his due date (install the car seat, wash the bedding and clothes). I've also got a few craft projects I want to finish.

Speaking of crafty projects, I started to decorate all of our white onsies to make them a little more interesting. Here's a picture of a few of them. I think they turned out cute. I'm going to do extra so I can give them away as gifts.
We had a 3D ultrasound done a few weeks ago. We had a great time watching our little boy move around, play with his toes, smile, stick out his thumb. We think he looks like DH, especially his nose.I'll write more later. I've got to go get ready for my Dr. appointment. I can't believe I'm 31 weeks today!!!! Hoping he stays in there for at least another 6 weeks!!!!
