30 WEEKS

I can't believe that I only have 10 weeks left until we get to meet this sweet baby. I went to my last doctors appointment and got the BEST news I have ever heard. Apparently, the new nurse that weighed me the time before when my NP told me I was having a really healthy weight gain messed up. Get this, she added 16 freakin' pounds to my weight gain, YES 16 lbs. I know she needs a good taking to, you can't add 16 lbs to the weight gain of a pregnant lady. So I was relieved and so happy when I had a huge weight loss at my last appointment. My doctor also talked to me about the choice of letting my body go into labor naturally or getting induced. Because of my delivery plan I would qualify to get induced earlier than normal. That sounds great to the big pregnant mommy sweating in the heat. But my little girl starts Kindergarten on August 3rd, so you can understand why I wouldn't want to have this baby around that time. So we have decided to just let the baby decide when it is ready to come and not get induced. And as weird as that may sound, I am totally fine with waiting. I love feeling this baby move and I am loving doing fun Summer activities with Paislee. We have started putting the baby's room together and talking about names, we still haven't decided on any yet though. Who knows maybe we will steal another baby's name at the hospital we like if we don't have a name by then lol. We are getting so excited to find out what this baby is, I feel like a kid on Christmas morning. Everyone keeps asking me if I have that special mommy feeling about knowing what the baby is. I guess I am a horrible mom because I don't have any feelings and I haven't had any revealing dreams so, really I have no idea either way what this baby will be. The only thing that makes me think it might be a boy is I still have to take medicine or I throw up and I didn't do that with Paislee, but that doesn't mean much right!

I think it's best to not have an idea, that way you're not disappointed in any way. So excited to hear what you've had. It's gone by really fast (for me).

Yeah for 30 weeks! You look super cute! You should let me know when you are going to be up at the hospital for an appt. I'll most likely be there too and can bring you in to see little A!
