According to what to expect .com I am 32 weeks pregnant. My doctor would say 31+ so many days. So, I will take the high count and go with 32 weeks!!!!! Eight weeks left--OMG, I'm starting to go a little in panick mode! Both of the boys were born early. Justus was six weeks and Zeke was three weeks. I kind of have a feeling that I may go the entire time this go around. So I have prepared myself for another eight weeks of heartburn night and day. Still I feel the need to have everything ready NOW!
My actual due date is March 9th! Holy Cow! I need to find a small dresser to but the baby things in. Then get all the immediate baby need stuff together. My list so far includes gathering the following things: swaddlers (diapers), passy just in case this one will take a passy, washing all the clothes, pack for the hospital. Oh yeah, figure out where the baby will sleep. Justus & Zeke have a bed but so far neither one has slept in it through the night yet. Zeke still prefers the crib but he's about to be booted out!
I went to the doctor on Friday. I have gained 12lbs so far. IT's not super bad but more than I have usually gained in this point. Depending on when the baby actually comes I figure the end total will be between 15-20lbs. YIKES! Coming up are the 1hr glucose test to see if I have gestational diabetes. Pre-register for the hospital. Sonogram #2, I am hoping for a good sonographer this time & some good pictures of the baby. And of course for the next month appointments every two weeks. Yippee!
This time we decided not to have a baby shower. I think it's pretty unnessecary since it's my third boy. I pretty have whatever I need. But I do want to have a meet the baby get together after the baby is born. What do you think about it? I just think it makes more sense. For the most part I have all things baby, even if they are 4yrs old. One thing that I did see and thought was pretty cool was a diaper bag/baby carrier. It looks like a messenger bag & has a place to hold the baby on your hip. I have no idea how useful it would be. It's probably the type of thing that you either love it or hate.
Well girls, that's the update for now.

Meet the baby shower is the best kind! I love it! That is what I had with Jackson. It was not suppose to be that way, but he came! It was suppose to be a diaper shower, but since everyone knew I had a boy (since we didn't know until he was born) it turned into a baby shower. I got tons of cute things that I needed for him. I was more than blessed. I will totally come to the meet the baby baby shower... :-)
I love that idea!! I wish I lived close enough to come and meet him, too!
I wanna come!!!
