Baby Senso #2: Week 38

baby's size: 
a leek

i'm feeling: 
better now, but i was particularly cranky the past few days because of the heat (i mean it wasn't even that hot here, high 70s/low 80s, but to me it's unbearable) 

food love: 
pasta (mac & cheese) 
peanut butter 
berries 

food hate: 
nope 

pros: 
i'll all set and ready to go - laundry, housewise and mentally i think? 
my blood pressure is all ok and it looks like preeclampsia isn't in the cards anymore 
this time around, i know what to expect contraction-wise so knowing what it's going to feel like when i go into labor is kind of comforting, but also still scares me at the same time 

cons: 
still not really able to sleep and waking up probably every hour 
constantly thinking about going into labor while pregnant with amelie and remembering it's not so fun when the contractions are so strong 

currently living in: 
the husband's shirts and anything that is comfortable

looking forward to: 
the baby's arrival, i'm at the point now where i know it can happen any day now so i'm trying to enjoy my time with just amelie and get whatever sleep i can 

Baby Senso #2: Week 36

^^Amelie & I with our red, white & blue on the 4th of July

baby's size: 
a head of romaine lettuce

i'm feeling: 
stressed out about the labor & delivery and just generally anxious about the baby's arrival 

food love: 
craving salty these days 

food hate: 
nada

pros: 
the house is pretty much set for the arrival of the baby - i just have a bunch of laundry to do 
i asked amelie is she was going to share her monkey toy with the baby and she lifted up my shirt and put it against my belly, it was cute 
the baby's head is already facing down 

cons: 
my blood pressure is little high so i'll have to go back to the midwife next week - let's hope this doesn't develop in preeclampsia which almost happened with amelie as well
it feels like there is no more room for the baby to grow, she also feels pretty far down, which makes it uncomfortable - i just feel like she is going to come sooner rather than later 

currently living in: 
a couple of tees are comfy 

looking forward to: 
meeting this baby! i'm going to prepare myself and pretend like she' due to arrive any day now, but it really is three more weeks until my due date though i swear i've already been having some braxton hix contractions.
