Sorry I haven't updated in AGES!!! What an awful blogger!!! I will be 38 weeks pregnant in 3 days! Say what?? Only 17 more days til my little mans due date!!
So how have things been going? I have to say that this pregnancy is NOTHING like it was with Addy. The first trimester was pretty close which is why I was sure I was having another girl. But once the 2nd tri came around, there were quite a few differences. And now holy cow do I miss my carefree comfy pregnancy I had with Adelyn! Since around 30 weeks this little man has given me hell! I did pretty well not complaining at first but nowadays, not so much. :) He is a lot stronger & I'm assuming bigger than Addy was & hurts like a bugger when he moves, which is a lot. But it's so hard to complain when you feel your little miracle moving inside of you. I had some minor preterm labor issues around 34 weeks but things have settled down thankfully. In order to have a homebirth, I needed to make it to 37 weeks so I'm glad we are there now. I still have days where the contractions are pretty intense but they always subside. My midwife thinks if he doesn't come early he should at least come fast. I'll take either at this point (or both). In the typical oversharing department I am dealing with some TERRIBLE hemorrhoids. This is by far my biggest complaint. They came out of nowhere & man they are just wrong!! Terrified how this will play out once I have him!
Even with this not being the most comfortable pregnancy, I will still miss having this little one inside of me. The truth is, who knows if I'll get to do this again, so I'm just trying to cherish every moment. I'm so excited though to hold him & for Addy to meet her little brother. I am not sure how she is going to handle it. Heck I'm not sure how any of us will. But I'm praying she is excited. She talks about him all the time & kisses or rubs my belly constantly. I have a lot of fear about how I'm going to give her the attention she needs while taking care of the baby too. I know this is natural & remind myself that millions of women do it all the time.
When we moved in to our new house in Sept the whole thing had been remodeled except the nursery. It took us ages, but after putting up new walls, floors & trim, painting & installing a door, it is done! I'm in love with it. It really was a labor of love for my hubby & I.
Now I will leave you with some pics. Hubby took most with his cell, so they're not great.

I feel the same way about wanting the pregnancy to be over, but also knowing this is my last time to have the feeling of a person inside my belly. I'll miss that. I'm not sure how the new sibling will fit in for either of us, but somehow it will work out. Our kids will adapt. I always think about my brother and how no one else in the whole world shares the very same memories as I do. That's pretty special, and now Addy will have that too. *Hugs* Best of luck to you if I don't talk to you before the boys are born!
