...and baby cannot get here quick enough for me! I've been putting off a new post because I wanted to include a picture, but I'm not sure I want an internet record of these final days so you'll have to just imagine how huge I am!
Last week Tuesday was my last day of work and it was really good timing. Very bittersweet day clearing out my office (3 years of office clutter is quite a lot) and saying goodbye to my teammates and co-workers, but I am so thankful that I just have to rest and relax everyday in preparation for labor. I've done a few things around the house and frozen some meals for our first week with baby, but also taken a nap everyday and gotten plenty of rest. Daily yoga and meditation are keeping me calm and focused.
I feel like we are getting closer everyday - irregular contractions, a lot of pressure, nausea and back pain - hoping it speeds up soon and baby H comes early. The sooner I can get that baby in my hands and have the ability to bend over again, the better!
For the record, Jason is a wonderful partner in this journey. As we speak he's cooking me a delicious dinner and has taken over the heavy lifting, bending, and a lot of cleaning. I'm so thankful for him!
My 39 week update is tomorrow so I'm hoping for some good news that we are getting closer to D-Day. Once baby does get here we'll send some text messages and update Facebook for sure. Blog posting will probably come later with lots more pictures and details!
Thanks for the update friend...hoping baby H comes sooner rather than later for you. :) Can't wait to see pics of your wee little one.
