35 Weeks

I have been having a lot of back pain for the last 2-3 weeks (although it seems like longer).
I have had a few contractions.
I have gain 4 pounds between 9/25 and 10/7 (my last appointments). My weight right now is 180.8. Which is more than I wanted but guess not much I can do about it til after she comes. (This means I have gained about 40 pounds-ish in total with this pregnancy so far and I still have 5 weeks left....)

We finally washed all the baby clothes and got them put away. We have the baby room pretty much ready for use (except for a few things in the baby crib still).

I am easily tired out. Just walking up and down the 3 flights of stairs for my apartment has me out of breath.

Sleeping is still an issue, I still get nausea when I lie on either side. So the doctor at my appointment on 9/25 prescribed me B-6 and a sleeping pill to help me get some good sleep.  It took a few days for it to kick in but know I am able to fall asleep most nights without any trouble; Except of course the waking up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom.

I am so ready for little miss to be here already. I've been saying that for a month, but now that we're really close I am really hoping she comes.

32 Weeks.

So for the last month plus a little bit I cannot sleep on my sides without a pillow for backsupport, a pillow between my legs for crotch pain, and a pillow under my tummy to help control the nausea. The nausea part has been getting worse. So much so that I have been having to sleep at like a 60 degree incline which sucks because sleeping that way is so uncomfortable.

Just starting this last week I have been having lots of lower back pain.

No contraction yets.

I can only wear my huge pajama type t-shirts and the like 10 maternity shirts I have (so i feel like I never have any clothes). I only have two maternity jeans, and so for the most part so unless I'm going somewhere I wear pajama pants.

Walking for long periods of time or even trying to walk fast hurt extremely bad down there.

I'm starting a yoga class tomorrow so I'm really excited.

The little miss is finally starting to rise off my pelvic bone and into my ribs so I finally am looking pregnant. (I hope she has enough room to turn head down for delivery).

She moves a ton, a lot of rolling around.

8 more weeks :)

Currant Creek 2014-August 6-9th

Well now a couple months have past and I have forgotten a lot of the details so hopefully the pictures do it justice.  And I'll fill in the blanks as they come back to me.Sydney and I showed up to my moms Tuesday night, slept over and headed up to camp around 3 PM in the jeep. We got there just in time for dinner. Sydney and Daycen played all that night and part of  Thursday. Jeff brought  Daycen up for one night so they headed back before dinner Thursday. Thursday before they left We all took a walk while Daycen pulled the wagon, they did paint crafts great grandma arnold brought up, and my dad and Jeff took the kids in the boat. They didn't even cry. Banjo and Amber came up with me and they were a little bit of a hand full for me to handle by myself. I am very glad my dad was willing to help me walk them a few times a day. Thursday when dad was helping me walk them he took the dogs down to the lake and we let Banjo off leash and threw sticks into the water for him to fetch. He loved this. We let Amber off leash because she looked like she wanted to go swimming too and instead she took off and ran away. In the woods! She probably went potty because she (after like 5 minutes) found her way back to the lake. But I was completely frazzled that I lost my dog while camping.
Friday mom took Sydney to the park and I followed with my camera. Sydney had so much fun climbing on everything with "her grandma."
Saturday we packed everything up and we left camp at 2 PM ish. Jake didn't get into Heber until after 5 PM and that was after Amber ran away and mom and Sydney and I walked around the block calling for her. Little stink was sitting in my moms lawn when we got back to the house.
(I felt very pregnant for this trip even though I was only 26 weeks).
