Still here. Still pretty in denial that I’ll be having a baby in like 10 weeks. I had my last OB appointment on Thursday. It was a little early, but she wanted to see me once more before we go. Everything is still looking good. I have no idea how much weight I’ve gained at this point, because I packed up our scale about a week ago. I feel like my belly isn’t as huge as it’s gotten with past pregnancies, but I’m decidedly waddling these days. Brian felt the baby kicking the other day (despite anterior placenta!) which NEVER happened with Daniel, so that’s kind of a big deal for me.
Here’s what I look like these days.
30 weeks
31 weeks
Love your dresses!
Thank you! My sisters and I have acquired some great maternity dresses over the course of several pregnancies.
I have an anterior placenta, too, and for some weird reason this baby has been much easier to feel externally than the others. When Thomas (or me! I liked to feel from the outside!) put his hand on my belly Margaret or Paul would instantly stop moving. This one keeps kicking away. I guess the placenta keeps her from feeling us and not the other way around!
Kalena & Will were both big movers and easy to feel. Daniel never kicked hard enough for Brian to feel it. I could, but only because I already knew that’s what I was feeling.
I also love your maternity gear. Everything I had was fugly and I really need to get it out of my house since we are definitely done creating human life. You look great!
Thank you! My sisters and I have accumulated quite the maternity wardrobe over the course of our pregnancies (11 total!) And since they’re both done, I have it ALL.
TEN WEEKS!
Too soon!!
Ahhh! You are getting so close! I am excited!
I know! It’s too fast though!
Look how cute you are! I’m a little jealous of your maternity wardrobe, honestly. You and your sisters have great style.
I have anterior placenta this time around, too, but this baby is a strong kicker and is already kicking so hard you can see my belly vibrate from across the room. I shudder to think what the coming 14 weeks have in store.
