38 week bump-a-lump |
But one thing I am sure of - I am a bit tired of being pregnant. While I have had the easiest pregnancy ever - these past 2 weeks have been tiring. Sleep is something I am already getting not used to doing for 8 hours straight (or at all sometimes) and I am fine with that. At least my body will be prepared when the little munchkin arrives.
And maybe I am also just a little bit upset still that I won't be going through the natural way of things birth-wise. And that's OK - I have accepted I am having a c-section and it is for the best but I will kind of miss the waters breaking or going into labour naturally - just the whole experience I suppose. Although SO many of my friends and family have been supportive and keep telling me all the pros to having a c-section which I get. It is super cool knowing what date he will be here, I kind of feel more prepared in a way. Also, the no pain thing and dealing with what comes with pushing a baby out of your body is a plus.
So 1 week. 1 week to bake, sew, cook and freeze meals, clean the house, relax, watch some telly (we are on season 2 of Breaking Bad and loving it), going for walks, enjoying sleeping in and sleeping when I want to. One more week of life as I know it.
Excited is not the word! ♥

A full-term belly is so beautiful. So happy for you. I too got really fed up with being pregnant that last month. It's so hard - you are huge and have to go the bathroom constantly plus the weight just gets enormous between your hips. I remember it well. You have the right attitude and are as prepared as one can be. Looking forward to the birth announcement!
