Car seat installed- CHECK, House cleaned- CHECK, Baby laundry done- CHECK, Costco trip- CHECK, Bags packed and by the door- CHECK, Baby classes- CHECK!
Well here we are T-5 days until my due date and patiently waiting for something to happen. Everything seems like a little sign that LBP is getting ready to enter this world. Everything we do together is potentially our last as just B and I. Every trip to Target, the gym, date night, and Sunday morning breakfast! For me, every kick or hiccup, late night belly dance party and never ending bathroom trips, they could all be over very soon and I know I am going to miss this bump. It all seems so crazy that we are finally here. BUT WE CAN'T WAIT TO MEET LBP!

How far along: 39 weeks and 2 days!
Well here we are T-5 days until my due date and patiently waiting for something to happen. Everything seems like a little sign that LBP is getting ready to enter this world. Everything we do together is potentially our last as just B and I. Every trip to Target, the gym, date night, and Sunday morning breakfast! For me, every kick or hiccup, late night belly dance party and never ending bathroom trips, they could all be over very soon and I know I am going to miss this bump. It all seems so crazy that we are finally here. BUT WE CAN'T WAIT TO MEET LBP!
How far along: 39 weeks and 2 days!
Size of the baby: Per the BUMP app. LBP is the size of aa Watermelon, measuring between 18.9-20.9 in and weighing between 6.2-9.2 lb. WOAH! let's hope we are right in the middle of that!
Gender: This is for sure the thing I am most excited about! Oh and that sweet baby smell and kissing those cheeks.
How do you feel? I feel pretty dang good for being 39 weeks! Staying busy has been great to pass the time.
Eating/Cravings: Eating: Small meals seem to fill me up and are all I have room for. Craving: I can't eat enough fruit popsicles, smoothies, or OJ still. Oh and ice cream!
Miss anything? I miss shopping for ME! It's so hard to buy clothes right now, not knowing what I will be fitting into in a few weeks. But, buying adorable baby outfits has quenched my shopping thirst!
General mood: Staying positive and still anxious for what's to come. Staying busy has been the best thing for my mood.
Fears: Knowing exactly WHEN to go to the hospital and making sure we are timing the contractions right. Thank goodness there's an APP for that! I'm aiming for no false alarms.
Sleep: Not so consistent this last week, I find my witching hour to be between 4-5am. I keep hearing this could be connected to when the baby is going to want to be up and feeding. Hooray!
Workouts: Still going strong, some days feel different than others but I feel really good afterwards and it's helping me justify just one more piece of Easter candy!
Things I am looking forward to: My parents arriving on Friday and a fun dinner we have planned to Scalini's where to date more than 300 of the pregnant customers who ordered the eggplant have given birth within 48 hours. Hopefully it works for LBP too!
Shout out to my baby daddy: B sure does keep me laughing. He can really make me forget about the aches and pains and laugh at his goofiness. I appreciate all of his help over these past few weeks, with driving me to far away work meetings, cleaning the house from top to bottom and always making sure I'm fed! He is so excited to meet LBP and talks to the belly daily.
