9 weeks to go!
I don't know about you, but I find it much more interesting to count down then keep counting up at this point in the game. I essentially have 2 months left of this pregnancy adventure and we are really in no way prepared. We haven't even learned how to have a baby yet. Good thing I was never one for studying or preparation of any kind.
I do have several books on hold from the library. I have no doubt SM will know what to do, but I don't want us leaving the birth center thinking about what we would do better next time. There is no next time.
The nursery is coming along nicely. Chris finished putting the dresser together and I scored some awesome orange and green button drawer pulls. It makes it look super cute. We've also decided on a bookshelf. So once we decide on some wall decor it should be bright and cheery in there. Chris mentioned yesterday what a change that room has gone through. It used to be a place neither of us wanted to go. Now I could sit in my green chair all day and the couch (newly moved to the office) is getting much more use as well as a favorite reading spot for both of us.
While we are trying to slowly but surely prepare, I have limited energy stores on most days. I used my energy on Sunday to run around shopping. I came home and napped for several hours and was still able to get to sleep by 10. On Friday I think I slept 10 hours straight (with a brief potty break at 7am). I started taking an iron supplement last week, which I think has helped with a general fog I was experiencing, but nothing but sleep can overcome the hard work of fattening this turkey.
On a separate, last note, I'm about to share one of the worst pictures ever taken of me; however it demonstrates a very important milestone. Many of you know that my sole motivation to get pregnant was to have a convenient place to put my drink. Well it has taken over 6 months, but I am officially my own table.
