I almost feel bad writing about this topic because I've had such an easy and wonderful pregnancy; I've really loved every minute of it! With that being said, nothing as wonderful as creating a little life comes without a few sacrifices :) So here are a few things I'm looking forward to once our little one is here!
10. Wearing all of my "normal" clothes again -- although I've gotten my hands on some super cute maternity duds, there's just nothing like my favorite 'ol pair of khaki shorts (I realize I won't necessarily be wearing them home from the hospital but hopefully soon after!).
9. Ice cold corona with lime -- because it's delicious and I miss having one on occasion : )
8. A super huge CAFFINATED skinny vanilla latte from Starbucks -- mmmmmm
7. Eating a cold turkey sandwich -- pregnant people are suppossed to heat any lunch meat consumed due to increased risk of listeria infection. Microwaved turkey is pretty rubbery and unappetizing!
6. Having my bladder back -- it has been completely taken over!
5. Being able to walk normally -- I've got the third trimester pregnancy waddle down pretty good
4. Sleeping on my STOMACH -- I have been a stomach sleeper my entire life and just cannot get comfy on my side or back
3. Shaving my legs without my belly getting in the way -- and paint my toenails, tie my shoes, etc
2. Not having to hear the comment: "Oh my gosh your getting so big!" -- Umm yeah, that's kind of what happens when you're growing a child inside of you ...
1. Being able to hold my baby boy!!! This is self explanatory and I can't wait! I'm already getting antsy.
Weekly Womb Workings:
Rob's about 3 pounds and 16 inches long. This week there's major production going on in the red blood cell and brain department. From here on out the brain, lungs and baby's fat stores will be receiving the most attention. He also opens and closes his eyes regularly now and will soon be able to detect the difference between light and dark.
