I totally forgot about writing a post yesterday. I don’t even think it was because I was too busy. I mean, I was pretty busy but I will usually try and make time for it sometime during a quick break in my day. I honestly think it is that pregnancy brain that woman talk about. I feel that starting and a few other things….
Last night in bed I could not get comfortable. I was able to sleep but woke up a lot and was either in pain from my hips or my back. I think I have also been sleeping really tense because a lot of times I will wake up with a headache but it will go away fairly quick.
Today I noticed that I was sooo out of breath walking back from a meeting. The way my office is, we actually have to walk a little ways across a parking lot and down the street to get to our main property. I was walking back by myself today going really slow and thinking how sleepy it was making me. I can really actually start feeling the weight of the baby weighing down my stomach. I cant imagine how I will feel in the coming weeks as he grows bigger!
In other news, we had our baby shower this past weekend and it was beautiful. We were so happy that so many of our friends and family came out. It was in my grandparents backyard…they rented tents, tables and chairs and had sooo much food it was crazy! There ended up being about 35 people that came and my grandmother was so overwhelmed once everyone got there that we didn’t end up having to play any games. That was fine by me. It was nice to visit with everyone, have some cake and proceed to take forever opening all the gifts! I am so happy with how it turned out and so grateful for my grandparents hosting it. I am also glad that it is over! Now, we know what we are missing / did not receive at the shower and can go shopping! That is the part I am looking forward too. We also got two huge bags of clothing from my friend Wendy. She just had a boy about 4 months ago and the timing is perfect for her to be getting rid of things. So far I love so many of the outfits, I just hope he fits in them!
We will be going away this weekend to a cool little lodge in the mountains. This will be our last little getaway before the baby. The place is very nice and I am sure I will have fun but I am also right on the verge of not wanting to do anything. I would be perfectly happy just sleeping, eating and relaxing but my husband it quite the adventurer so we will see how much of that I get away with!
Here is another belly update. It looks so huge when I look at the photos or if I look in the mirror sat my profile, depending on what I am wearing. But, what is weird is that I don’t feel like I am that huge. I mean, certainly when I am out of breath or trying to bend but I mean, just walking through the living room, I almost feel normal. Maybe that is because I have always had a bit of a belly, I don’t know. Also, I feel like even though I have gained quite bit of weight, I can look at myself straight on forward in the mirror and it looks like I still have a normal figure. Maybe I am just telling myself that so I feel better haha
