6 weeks left!
So I am 8 ½ months along (34 weeks) and only have 6 weeks left! THANK GOD! I am now getting to the “I’m over it stage”. I love my belly and feeling the baby move but can’t wait to have my body back to myself. I am in quite a bit of pain and discomfort lately everything down to my knuckles hurts and I am having trouble breathing and sleeping and it just kinda sucks right now. But enough of the whining…the baby is healthy and as much as I want her to come out like yesterday I am praising God everyday that she stays in my womb where I know she is safe and healthy and able to grow until it’s her time to come out.
I went to the doctors today and had a normal appt. Gained 5lbs in the last 2 weeks alone…my goodness when will it ever stop. I have gained a total of 42lbs and I don’t even want to think what I would look like if I wasn’t working out 5 days a week. I really hope to keep the total weight gain to under 50lbs. I was originally saying 35lbs now it’s 50 my oh my how things change. Believe it or not I still don’t have any stretch marks but the holes where my belly button ring were are turning a nice shade of red so I might be getting one there but otherwise I am still thanking God that I have avoided stretch marks thus far.
I have an ultrasound next Thursday the 19th at 11:45am and that will be the last one. Hopefully she is head down and looking good
