Updates:
Weight gain- 26 pounds. Yikes! In two weeks I gained about 6 pounds, thank you Thanksgiving dinner. Before that I had been gaining about a pound a week. My doctor said I've had a healthy weight gain, but she'd like to see me gain a bit more each week and that the 6 pounds was needed... easy for her to say, she isn't going to be working it off in a couple of months. My face is getting rounder each day. Wedding ring still fits the same as it always has.
Belly- No stretch marks.... yet, the black line is nice and black, and my belly button looks funny but it isn't hasn't popped out
Movement- She moves around all the time, but is still most active at night. Her movements have become less intense as she becomes more crammed in there. I feel her the most in my ribs and my bladder.
Josie- We can't decide how she will react. I think she is going to be her usual dramatic self and act completely neglected, but also very protective. I think she's going to think of the baby as her baby. She LOVES spending time in the nursery and often whines at the door to go in and check it out.
Dreams- All of my dreams about her lately are right after delivery. We are always writing down her birth date on a birth certificate form or a Facebook post or something and her birthday is always January 15. Not sure how that date has been stuck in my dreams, but we will see. My sister, Sadie had a dream that she came out with the face of a baby but the body of Josie... this just shows how obsessed with our dog our family is.
To do list:
Hospital tour- Pack hospital bag
- Install car seat
- Birthing classes
- Pick her name
- New parent child care class
- Breastfeeding class
Who will our little lady look like?
Travis and I both have blue eyes, but that's about it. I'm short and petite, he's tall and broad. My hair is straight, his is wavy. Will she get my dark hair and olive complexion or Travis's blonde hair, freckles, and rosie cheeks? We cannot wait to see what she looks like! Here's what we looked like as babes.
