On Friday, I went to my 31 week check up and everything is looking great. Right now my doctor appointments aren't the most exciting - they check my weight and blood pressure and that is about it. That said, the best thing about my appointments is that I get to hear the baby's heart beat which is very cool. The doctor noticed that our baby is very active - he's always jumping around and it's hard for the doctor to get him still enough to hear his heartbeat. Of course, there are still the restless nights and soreness during the day due to the lower back aches and sore hip/pelvic bones. Everyone I talk to says welcome to the "Third Trimester Club". I am excited the end is near but I'm definitely not quite ready for Baby Jack as there is so much still do do around the home.
Speaking of that, I am in the infamous nesting stage. I think it started early on with me but now it is in overdrive. As you know we finished our complete renovation of the kitchen about a month ago...which by the way I love. Well, now I have decided to paint the entire house and then to top it all off, we've decided to re-do our bathroom. O.k. just so we understand, I haven't even touched the baby's room yet besides having it painted. There are only 8 weeks left - yes, I know, pretty crazy. The good thing is that I have ordered the baby's furniture and my mom has graciously offered to make all the baby's bedding (which I'm so excited about).
I'll let you know how we do...the countdown is on!!
