Baby is still in there…. Making my ankles be cankles and making me have problems walking… Ugh

As of tomorrow night, I am needing ideas to get this baby out. Ideas? What worked for you?

Seems our time as sharing a body is coming to an end. You’re due on Saturday!! SATURDAY! Not going to lie, mommy is not going to miss having you as a body roommate. Well, I’ll miss some things. I will not miss this back pain and being unable to walk. I will miss watching my stomach become uneven with your body movements and feel my belly button being popped out. I’ll miss the hiccups and being able to balance a bowl on my stomach.

The trade-off is very exciting… us no longer being body roommates means you’ll be out… here! Crying, getting your diaper changed, eating, sleeping… repeat. I can’t wait to see your chubby little cheeks, to snuggle up and feel your warmth on my chest, to find out if you’re a he or she!! To be creepy mama bear and watch you breathe as you sleep (all moms do it - adjust, it’s not the first time I’ll be creepy).

Anyways, I guess you could say mama is excited. Your 9 month rental lease is almost up peanut, so come out already! Mama is waiting and I am not patient!

Love you always. <3 xo

to wear jeans that aren’t topped with a stretchy band… Until Thanksgiving ;)

The countdown is getting scary. Less than 2 weeks til baby day. Holy jeebus. I don’t want to go through labour again… Guess it’s a little late for that thought lol

Does not look good. Cadence’s cousins came over and when I held one of them, she was all about being picked up. On the plus, I’ve managed to learn how to keep a newborn still and pick up a toddler…. While pregnant!

So excited!

or 3 until baby peanut is considered full term. I need to still pack my hospital bag, and buy diapers, and get the bassinet into my room…

With all of the recent happenings, I’ve had to re-think my hospital plans. But it’s been thought and decided upon. I’m going to drive myself to the hospital and go in there alone. I’m going to deliver this baby with a room of nurses and a doctor and I’m perfectly fine with that. I’ll have no support but I feel maybe it’s for the best. I won’t have any support when I leave… it’s just me and my kiddos. It’ll be nice to greet peanut with open arms and to be just be me and the baby (since that definitely will not happen when we get home).

This is definitely not how it was supposed to be. This was not the plan. However, not everything goes to plan, and in the end, all seems to work out the way it should. So little peanut, mommy loves you to the moon and back and I cannot wait to meet you (just wait til I have some diapers for you first)!

But hitting on a pregnant woman when she’s:

-newly single

-carrying someone else’s child inside of her

is really wrong. If someone really wanted to pursue something, wouldn’t it be best to give the pregnant chick time to heal? To maybe let her give birth to the child first?!

Jesus Christ.

I realize that I don’t wear a sign that says this, but there is no point in trying to get into a relationship with me. It won’t go anywhere. I have no need or desire to introduce another male to my children. Which means “we” would never live together. “We” would never celebrate holidays and there would be no need to meet family members.

I have no desire to be hurt. I have no desire to be married anymore. The idea makes me physically ill. Yeah, I had pictured myself walking down the aisle to one man… but that won’t happen and no, I’m not going through that again.

I’ll be fixed soon enough so there goes that “family” dream. I don’t want to be attached to anyone other than my children.  I have my children and I have myself… that’s all I need <3  

Which means, 23 days until baby can come out and be considered “full term” or 51 days until they induce labour.
