37 weeks!

as promised, here's some behind the scenes iphone snapshots from sunday...
 baby is the size of a mini watermelon!

14 days! and they're flying by! i go every week now to my check ups & meet with the surgeon doing my c-section. i was laying on the table & said "so he must be about 6 1/2lbs by now right?! at my ultrasound he was 5lbs 6oz and that was weeks ago!" he gave me a big laugh and went on to tell me that the ultrasounds high ball the weight and that there was no way i had an over 6lb baby in my belly at the moment. he put his hands on my stomach and said "your baby at birth will be mid 6's, maybe low 7's" ..... long awkward pause. here i am thinking i have a beast in my belly! that he wasn't going to fit in his newborn clothes & i was only going to get to use the mamaroo twice before he was too big for it! feeling much better now that i know that, but we will just have to wait and see how big he is come march 11th!

sleeping great, but exhausted during the day. baby has definitely grown a ton in these last weeks, and so have i! i'm finally feeling big and pregnant... and the groin pain is not fun. i am pretty nervous about the upcoming c-section after the nightmare i went through the last time i had a surgery... but having an amazing doctor helps. there is a slight possibility i may be put completely out for the birth. the hole that was left in my spine a year & 1/2 ago filled in with scar tissue and it may prevent the epidural from spreading effectively... in which case they would have to put me out and i would miss the birth. fingers crossed that doesn't happen! & on a positive note, little guy has "dropped" so i can breathe easy now! & i'm waiting on the cutest boppy pillow cover from etsy to come! & besides that, and a massive week of cleaning, i am ready for his arrival!

hope you all are having a great week so far! happy tuesday!
