Online Baby Shower :)

Thank you very much Jennifer Sanchez for the online baby shower :) 

Here are some cute videos and photos of Emilie opening her little brother's pressies :) 

Thank you Aunt Zona, Uncle Marvin and Gavin :) 

Thank you Sherry and Jesse! 

Thank you Jennifer and Jose! 

Thank you Grammie and Gramps!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the games and congrats to the winners :) 

Here's a fun comparison...

I don't feel the same size but I think I'm about the same size as I was with Emilie about now... I started out weighing more than I did when I got pregnant with her plus I've put on a little weight this pregnancy...

Nathan Moving :)

I was trying to capture his hiccups in a few videos but they are just to faint to see on camera I think... but at one point he decided to squirm into a new spot so you get to see the giant movements he does now :) Try to fall asleep with THIS in your stomach, lol :) I swear sometimes he kicks and rolls so hard that he makes my whole body rock when I'm laying in bed :)

34 weeks tomorrow

Getting closer and closer now :) We've got the pack n play ready in a newly rearranged bedroom for him to sleep in. The bassinet for when he's napping downstairs has been washed just needs sheets. Hospital bags are packed. Induction date set for September 22nd - 23rd. Time to make child care plans which are almost set for Emilie :) I remember being this far along:

Wondering if I would EVER get to here:

Now I'm anxiously waiting to be back to before I was pregnant just with a new newborn to cuddle! lol :)

32 weeks ultrasound :)

Today Nathan weighed in at 4lbs 12 oz :)
He's head down.. but he has a rather large head... atleast today it was measuring WAY bigger than it ever has. Not sure if means anything, but we will see what the doc says about it. Other than that he's measuring the normal week ahead or right on depending on who's count your looking at. 

Good thing it doesn't look the contractions messed with my cervix any so yay for that. Got a good shot at how baby is squishing my bladder right down to nothingness. And again 3d didn't happen cause he has his nose smashed into my placenta and on top of it has cord across his face.

Clothes from England!

How cool :) I signed up to be in an exchange of baby clothes and Nathan has his own set of clothes from ENGLAND! Not things you can buy here :) I suppose you could find similar ones but I think it's pretty cool :)

Trip to L&D

So for a few days I had been feeling all sorts of pressure, and what seemed to be an increase in BH contractions. I called in more about the pressure and that it was getting harder to pee. 

They sent me to L&D. 

There they monitored me, took a pee sample, etc. The sample was almost clear yet they felt the need to give me an IV incase I was dehydrated. I should have refused that one. They also sent me for an ultrasound sound which was the only plus side. But I left with no answers and on a muscle relaxer :\ 

The next day i actually got worse cramps and more pain, but since they weren't regular I didn't bother calling in for a repeat of nothing. I am assuming my body is just preparing. So I waited it out and they went away. Saturday morning they came back, but never got to be as hard or even as frequent as the others. Sunday was almost free of anything. Some happened in the morning but mostly I felt alright aside from sciatic nerve pain. 

Today all seems normal... so perhaps it was just a hiccup. We obviously don't want baby boy coming this soon :)
