As I am now in week 33 of this pregnancy, it has been FABULOUS so far! I have had a very "normal" pregnancy (as my dr described it). As my belly grows each & every day, I am loving every minute of it. Feeling this little guy move inside me & now being able to see the movements on the outside is a little freaky but at the same time absolutely amazing! My husband has really enjoyed being able to feel our little boy move when he touches my belly. The only complaints I have are that I'm having a hard time getting to sleep at night for going to the bathroom so much. Once I do get to sleep, I only sleep a few hours before the bladder calls again. I guess it's the way my body is prepping me for getting up once the baby arrives.
I do asked by pretty much everyone I know one question..."How are you feeling?" I actually feel fine, but I feel like people think I'm just lying about that. Even if I felt horrible, I don't think anyone actually wants that honest answer. It jsut seems like such a retorical question in the first place. Does it even require a response?
Now I just have so much to think about to get ready for his arrival in 7 weeks give or take some. Finishing the nursery, packing for the hospital (these are really the only 2 things we have left).
The excitement of finally getting to meet Baby Henry is definitely there, but there is also some fear. We're first time parents so the newborn stage is a little scary. We've read books, websites, magazines, taken a class, everything we can to prep for his arrival, but it's still the fear of the unknown. We shall see...
