So, last week I travelled to Ohio and had my baby shower on Saturday. Took eight hours of driving from my house, and of course I did not drive. Anthony's mom took me along with his sisters. We had a really good time there, and spent a lot of time making decorations for the party. And I really do LOVE how all the decor looked. Although we spent SO much time on them. We were still trying to get everything together before the party started and a couple people arrived early and helped out. Most the people arrived a bit late though so I think we had a late start. We played three games and didn't get around to a lot of other games that were planned, but its ok. I had SO many gifts to open that we didn't have much time left to open them and as I opened them, people were slowly leaving. But overall it was pretty fun and I am thankful I got stuff I really needed.
Before the party, I went to choir practice and the Sunday after I sung in choir and Ant's sisters did too. They had a good time doing that. And then one of the days I stopped at Kroger to say hi to some of my old coworkers and we all spent a really long time doing that (they were all hugging everyone). Lol.
So anyway...
Some changes I've noticed in the past two weeks have been that I started producing colostrum! (Which some people think is weird, but lots of people like me get excited about that stuff). Also I had strong pelvic pain the one morning which lasted maybe fifteen minutes, but after that it went away and that's all normal. I've also been getting pain in my upper right thigh recently. It's like a muscle pulling and can make it hard to walk at times.
After I got back into Pennsylvannia I had my midwife appointment the next day and Anthony's mom took me. Everything is looking good and I found out that he is head down with his back along my right side! So that's a good sign. If I were to worry about anything, it would have been him not turning in time. But looks like I'm good now. Although the closer the due date gets, I know I'm going to get more anxious. I'm also hoping and praying that I can handle the pain well. And believe it or not he's got about 5-8 more weeks! Because any time after 37 weeks is full term. So ya never know what it'll be til he actually comes.
BUT I'M SO EXCITED. I'll be seeing my midwife every two weeks now until it's time to go weekly. And I just know this time is gonna fly! It's been flying and feels like I was just 27 weeks. But that was about 5 weeks ago! So yeah, I can not wait!! Like I have no idea how to express my excitement in words. After he comes I will be so happy and excited to celebrate him! And I know I'll also be tired, but I know it can be so worth it. Gahhh just SO excited. :D but now that I'm thinking, WE STILL GOTTA GET THE BABY'S ROOM SET UP. LIKE WOAH, I DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME. But perhaps we'll be able to move before then. Although it's all taking sooo long I'm kind of doubting that it will be before the baby comes which of course will just make it more complicated when we do have to move. But whatever. I'll just be happy when he's here. :) and gotta make sure his room will be set up in time.
Hope you all have a good week (:
