Well, as of
yesterday I am 36 weeks – or 9 months – pregnant. You better believe I’m going
to remind my husband of this frequently. You want me to do the dishes? I’m 9 months pregnant! I need another nap,
honey, I’m 9 months pregnant. Can you share your candy, please, I’m NINE MONTHS
PREGNANT! ; )
Everything
feels surreal these days. Nothing seems important except this baby. I don’t
care about work (at all), and in the evenings all I do is watch tv or read and
think “This is one of my last nights of just relaxing”. Last night I woke up
around 3 and couldn’t fall back asleep for an hour. My husband woke up too and
we talked about what the baby is going to be like. Mentally, I am 100% baby,
all day long, all the time.
The
hospital bag is packed, sitting by the door along with the car seat, a Boppy
pillow, and a little sticky note of things that should be thrown in the bag
last minute (my husband’s contact solution and case, our camera, etc).
I
have a growth ultrasound and appointment tomorrow. I’m a bit nervous because,
if we believe the scale, I have lost a pound in the past two weeks. I feel like
I have definitely gotten bigger though, so I guess we’ll see what the doctor
says.
Friday
we’re both going to the mall where they’re having a car seat installation event.
Once we do that and we put the swing together, we are officially as prepared as
we can be for this little one.
Let’s
just hope it’s not another 6 weeks before he gets here! I think a 39 week baby
would be perfect : )

That's so cool that the two of you were up in the middle of the night, talking about what the baby will be like. So excited for you - the last few weeks are here!!!
You are so close. I'm so excited for you!
Happy 9 months, indeed! so glad everything is going well. I think it is normal to lose weight in last month of pregnancy. I know what you mean about having baby on the brain 24-7 - SO excited for you!
