Maternity Clothes:
Same as before, Tim’s sister-in-law gave me some new maternity clothes that she had when she was pregnant, and so that has been nice to have a few more basics to go with my ever-shrinking closet! I can’t WAIT to hopefully be able to fit back into my old clothes again, I tell you Im going to be working like a damn fool to get back into those clothes by the time I have to go to work!

Movement:
More and More every day! Last night at class she was sure moving and I am pretty sure I got a nice little elbow or knee jab and my belly was kind of sticking out all weird and it was really pointy and hard where she was… SO that was exciting!

Sleep:
Not too terrible, I toss and turn at night just trying to get comfy, but overall I am doing pretty well in that department

What I miss:
Same as before, Laying on my stomach and being a part of a fancy wine and fancy cheese club.
Cravings:
Nothing too much or crazy! This morning I had a weird craving for a bowl of Cheerios..not the honey nut, just the plain kind. I didn’t indulge, just thought they sounded rather delicious. Besides that, nothing too bad recently.

Symptoms:
Same as before, My bones hurt…my body aches..you know normal preggo symptoms I guess? My energy is also starting to burn out a little bit! Also, I have been using this hot heart massager that I bought at a Pure Romance party a few years back for my back pain. Well, in order to reuse said heart, you have to boil it down. Well Tim, being the ever so loving man that he is, recognized that my back was hurting and put it on the stove for me, so it would be ready for me when I was ready to relax. Well…we both forgot about it!! AHH!!! Cue us going in and smoke billowing out of our poor little stove top. All of the water that was in the pot had been evaporated and my poor little heart massager had exploded!! It was so sad…and kind of funny all at the same time. I am lucky that my new pot from my dad for Christmas wasn’t ruined, but my heart was in ruins! So needless to say, we are looking for another one of these suckers….

Favorite Moment This Week:
This past week we started our Childbirth Preparation class. It is a 2 hour long class every Monday from 6:30-8:30pm. It makes for a long day because we get off work at around 5:45ish, and then have to rush home and try to eat something real quick before we head to class for 2 hours. I think they will be really helpful though, and one of the class sessions we actually get to see the maternity floor! We also met with a Maternity Connections coordinator through the hospital. She was super helpful in setting us up with a birth plan, and getting our preferences for how we wanted our room to be when we are admitted. She also went over the signs of labor and what to watch out for, which was pretty helpful…since hello? We are not seasoned pros at this! We also got more of the nursery finished up, and found out from my mum that she is buying us the crib and the mattress! H ooray!! I will post pics when we get everything in there. I have also done all of the laundry for the clothes that we have received thus far, and organized everything in her closet. Tim also finished up the little night stand table for next to the rocking chair, so that also turned out SUPER CUTE! Also, Tims mum came to visit! We hadn’t seen her since before Christmas, so that was really nice to be able to spend some time with her! She has a pretty busy schedule, so hasn’t been able to see us since before then, and wont have a free weekend until after Harlow is born!
Worst Moment This Week:?
Just my back pain has steadily been getting worse. I will be fine one minute and then start limping the next. I can’t wait to have my body back and be able to go running and lose this baby weight!
