Pregnancy Updates
*I am now officially feeling VERY LARGE!
*Putting on socks/shoes, shaving my legs, and cutting my toenails are very very difficult.
*I feel like the baby has dropped some - I am feeling sore/tender/bruised, not sure what the correct word would be. My bladder is majorly squished, which means very frequent trips to the restroom.
*I am still sleeping well, usually only waking once during the night. We were given a mattress/box spring set a few weeks ago, and I don't know what it is about them, but they are the PERFECT firmness/softness for pregnancy. I am only sleeping with ONE PILLOW, and that is under my head! Long before this point in Jonathan's pregnancy I was having to use 3 or 4 pillows to prop up my belly, hips, legs, support my back, etc. and would still wake up with aching hips, back, legs. This mattress is a true blessing!
*I dreamed that I felt Kellen's leg coming out, and told Jeff we had to leave RIGHT THEN for the hospital because the baby was breech and was coming out! He told me he needed to shower before we could leave, and refused to leave before showering. I told him my mother would go ahead and take me and that I hoped he didn't miss our child's birth :-) When I told Jeff about my dream the next day he said, "I could have just showered at the hospital if I needed a shower that bad!" I told him I had even said that in the dream but he had insisted on showering at home. My husband is very serious about hygiene!
*I am having BH contractions ALL THE TIME!
*I think I gained 7 lbs in 2 weeks over Christmas - yikes! I am officially a few pounds over what I weighed when I delivered Jonathan. I am now trying to walk a lot :-)
*My stretch marks are stretching! And they are starting to itch again :-( They were pretty bad the last few weeks with Jonathan, and it looks like it will be the same this time around.
