7 weeks until her due date. I've already had several talks with her about how it is always polite to arrive a bit early... not too early when people are still getting ready, but if you are on time, you're practically late. I hope she starts off listening to me, but if she is anything like her Mimmi (my mom) she will be at least a week late.
This week I attended a breastfeeding class... alone. I told Travis I didn't think he needed to go since, well it's a breastfeeding class. I arrived and was the ONLY person in the class who's "partner" wasn't there. My instructor was very concerned that I didn't have a supportive partner in this and brought it up 3 times. She will also be the instructor at the newborn care class that we are attending in January... I'm sure she will be giving Travis a few judgmental looks. Poor guy, he really is the best husband and dad to be ever, he was just listening to his wife. :)
This is the last week of school before winter break. I will be taking advantage of my two weeks off by getting ready for her, having some me time, and having lots of time with my best friend/hubby! Things will be pretty different from the last 13 years of just us. This month marks 13 years (half of my life) since I met Travis; couldn't ask for a better best friend and life companion.
Updates- What I miss about not being pregnant... wearing regular clothes, being able to paint my own toe nails comfortably (I think I just gave myself my last pedicure, next month I'm going in to get them done), not bumping into students with my stomach, getting off the couch without having to put so much effort into it, and holiday cocktails
- Sleep... I've always been a good sleeper, but having a good night's rest now includes 4 pillows perfectly positioned. I have a wedge pillow to support my belly otherwise she gets stuck on one side, I have a pillow between my legs to position my back correctly, one for my head, and one to either prop me up on my side or elevate my head a little higher. I get up once or twice a night to pee, which is better than the beginning where I think my record was 6, but before I was pregnant I never woke up at night.
- Cravings... nothing, which is surprising because I love food so much! But, I have enjoyed a few more Christmas cookies than I normally do. :)
