Here we go! I decided to start a blog rather than posting every thought on facebook. I want a place where I am free to say what I want without the whole world seeing it! Not everything is status update worthy :)
As of today I am 32 weeks, 3 days pregnant with baby girl Hallie Claire! We are anxiously awaiting her arrival! Trying to plan for a baby is stressful at times. So much to buy! I know what I want and am guessing at what I may need. Who knew I would ever get excited about finding out our insurance will help cover the cost of a breast pump!!?!? Or the fact that our insurance deductible has been fufilled for 2011!?!? A year ago I would have never thought twice about these things :)
Things I am feeling this week:
TIRED. Did I mention tired? 2 bathroom breaks a night. Last night I couldn't even keep my eyes open. How am I supposed to feed a child at 2 AM if I can't keep my eyes open to go potty!?!?
Overwhelmed. Only 7 1/2 weeks left? Potentially less! I feel like there is so much to do! Time to start planning maternity leave, talk about a reality check! I am taking a week off before my due date to lay at home and enjoy the last few quiet days with my husband. My job offers me 2 weeks off before the due date if I wish to take it. Which would mean that my last day of work would be the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. I'm afraid I would go crazy sitting at home for 2 weeks awaiting her arrival...
Sore. My ribs are aching in pain. Baby girl's little hiney is in my ribs...
Emotional. Enough said
Beyond Excited. When we leave the hospital, she's all ours! I don't have to share her with anyone else!!! Except Matt of course :)
After 11 months of trying to get pregnant, our day came on April 6th, 2011 at exactly 4:33 pm with a positive pregnancy test. Hard to believe she will be here so soon. I prayed for this child and the Lord granted me what I asked of him :)
