Exhaustion!

I haven't updated much lately, I have been so busy taking care of our daughter and trying to make sure everything is ready for the baby.

I have been extra exhausted lately too. I guess my body must be working hard to grow this baby. I feel like I could never get enough sleep, even if I slept for a week straight! I have been trying to go to bed early and take naps when my daughter does to make sure I get the rest I need.

I still can't believe I have made it to almost 31 weeks!! I sometimes feel like I have never had a chance to enjoy this pregnancy. I have been so scared & worried so many times and so busy with Ceili that I haven't had time to just sit, rub my belly and enjoy the miracle of this little bean growing inside of me. I guess now is the time, I need to start taking the time to rest and enjoy.

I saw the doctor earlier this week. He said that the ultrasound looked good and the previa didn't show up. The baby is a healthy weight and is head down like the tech told me. I asked him about a vaginal birth and he said it shouldn't be a problem at all...that made me super happy! I am hoping to do it without drugs again because I'm scared to death of epidurals and I'm not a big fan of the whole idea of them. Now I start seeing the doctor every 2 weeks then every week starting in December, so I will be at that office alot. I am secretly hoping this baby arrives a couple of weeks early, but we'll see! I'm just so anxious to find out if it's a boy or girl and to make sure he/she is healthy :)

Busy Day

I had my daughter home from daycare today because I had planned to have my best friend and her 2 kids (3 year old boy and 6 month old girl) over for a visit. Unfortunately, their household was struck with a terrible flu, so she cancelled. So, Ceili and I spent most of the morning outside then had lunch and a nap. She actually allowed me to have an almost two hour nap because she just stayed in her room when she woke up...whenever that was.

I was happy to spend the day with my little girl. Her huge imagination makes me smile and some of the crazy things she does make me laugh harder than anything! Today when I was laying on the couch, she got two pretend slices of pizza and put them on my boobies. She said I had "pizza boobies" lol.

On another note, the bleeding is still stopped and boy does my belly feel HUGE today! That makes me happy though because I know that little peanut must be growing & thriving in there!

I had a great day, but boy am I exhausted! Tomorrow I am looking forward to spending the day alone, resting and maybe doing some scrapbooking since my sweet hubby brought all of my scrapbooking stuff into our room for me :)
