Week 32

We had some 3D pics done last Friday and I must admit our little one is so cute. I know all mothers say that but I do think we've been blessed. Before we had them done my blood pressure spiked a little at work so I decided that weekend to take it easy. Well low and behold on Wed when I went for my check up I was officially told to work from home the rest of the pregnancy and was referred to a perinatalist to have another ultrasound done to see how big Chaim is. I think he might be a little ahead of the weight and length norm so we'll see. I'm just praying that I stay in good health and so does he until delivery. There is a slight chance he may have to come early say around the first week or so of May. We'll see. I'd just like him to be at least 37 or 38 weeks so he's fully mature. The first week of May he should be around 37 and 1/2 weeks so I'd be ok with that. Otherwise all is great. We still haven't done much on the nursery because we keep doing things for other people. My stress about that is at the limit and we are having to now tell people no until his room is done. I'm more than willing to help out but we've put off our family obligations for too long. I'll post new pics soon! Only about 7 weeks or less to go!

Week 29

Only 10 weeks and 1 day to go. I can't believe how the time has flown. Overall I'd say this has been a great pregnancy. I've only had a few bumps in the road to speak of. I'm hitting that stage now where my hands and feet are swelling and there isn't much I can do about it other than drink as much water as I can, watch my sodium intake and elevate everything. Chaim is getting really big now. He tends to stay on my left side and loves to push and slide his little feet all over the place. I think he does in on purpose sometimes because it tickles and makes me laugh. He also gives me little punches every now and then. He definately has a personality all his own. We are scheduling a 4-D ultrasound for about two weeks from now so we can get a good glimpse of our little guy. I'm very excited. It's strange because I had dreams about what he'd look like before I was pregnant and at the very beginning of the pregnancy but now it's hard to picture. We just had the carpet in the nursery replaced and will hopefully have the nursery done in a few weeks. Promises, promises! I have to get it done because I'm to the point I can't do too much more. It's really getting exciting!
