I can't believe it, but that is what my ticker says. I am 31 weeks and doing well. This weekend I started feeling a bit more pregnant. I am getting more uncomfortable and definitely have to take it easy. Breathing has been a bit more difficult at times (as the baby grows your diagram gets compressed is what I am told). Had some cramping type symptoms over the weekend, I think it was just my body telling me to slow down. So I laid down on my left-side as the books say and watched the Yankees. Baby got pretty excited when they won, I know we have a big Yankee fan in training here!
Chris and I have completed two of four child prep/Lamaze classes. The classes have been pretty good, very informative. We have learned all about the hospital and what will happen from when we get there till we discharge. We have all the confidence in the staff there and have heard nothing but great things about their care. The breathing exercises have gone well, it is nice & relaxing. I know that won't be the case when the time comes, but so far we are doing well. Last week we went over the anatomy and the actual labor, which we both found interesting. I was surprised to hear that during the 'transition phase', when you are actually pushing, it doesn't hurt. It is the labor & contractions before hand that are really difficult. This coming week we will watch a video and go over pain mgmt. I think by the end I will be ready and so will my coach!
Today I go to the doctor (I go every 2 weeks now) and they are going to do another sonogram. I can't wait to see Baby Fuffs again! Will update again soon (hopefully with a pic).
In other news Baby Fuffs has a new second cousin. Isabella Rose was born on Weds, Aug 15th. We hear mommy & baby are doing well.
