36 weeks!

Wow, I can't believe we are at 36 weeks!  I am finally in the last month of pregnancy.  Since it's the last month and who knows when this boy is actually going to come I'm going to write about pregnancy.
I want to write some of this before the last month takes over and I forget how great everything was before this month ;)


I have been extremely blessed this pregnancy with almost NO issues! Sometimes when I talk to other women I feel like I'm rubbing it in.  They say things to me like "doesn't it get so hard to sleep",  "don't you just hate the swelling", "doesn't it just drive you crazy having to pee all night", etc.  So far, my answers are always no.  I still sleep through the night just fine, I haven't really been swelling (yet), and I don't have to pee that much more.  Sometimes these conversations make me wonder what's wrong with me.   Overall, I actually love being pregnant.  I love feeling Jacob kick and move around. Watching him grow by watching my belly grow and from ultra-sounds.  I love trying to get Micah to feel Jacob move and when Micah kisses my belly to tell Jacob bye in the mornings.


However, a few issues are starting to take over and I can see that the honeymoon period on pregnancy is almost over.  I figure that is mother natures way of making you actually somewhat want to go through labor.  My back is starting to hurt more often and I have a hard time sitting for long periods of time and sometimes even short periods. I finally have succumbed to the full fledge pregnant lady waddle too!  When I stand up after laying for a while I feel like an old lady with my hips hurting and kinda limping.  I painted my toenails the other day and that was an extremely difficult task. 


I'm sure this last month I'm going to get increasingly more uncomfortable but I'm so excited as to what it will bring- our precious baby!  But before counting the days to Jacob, I'm counting the days till our Mom's arrive.  I'm hoping and praying the Mom's arrive before Jacob.  After that, bring it on :)
