It is now the last month until the finale. My baby is over 4 lbs now and over 17 inches, i've gained lots of weight. At first, they went to the belly but lately they seem to distributed around my body. I wouldn't call myself fat yet, but i think i'm getting there. I can no longer wear shoes to work, flip flops for now. I dress up by wearing more blazers to compensate my flip flops :)
At my last doctor appointment, the doctor confirmed that the baby is already in head down position. Not sure how she could confirm that just by feeling my belly. By now, my baby should no longer have the alien look and should look more like a baby with less wrinkles. Some days, i get really excited thinking about what it's like to finally meet the baby; some other days, i just want to get this over with because i'm so tired.
I've been going to the pool at lot lately, it seems to help me relaxing and it's sort of exercising as well. I even signed up for the deep water aerobic class at the pool. It was a lot harder than i thought, not only i had to manage to float, but i had to follow the instructions to do all the movements. My body was aching afterward, but i supposed aqua aerobic is good for pregnant women.
People keep asking me if i have everything ready for the baby. The truth is, no i do not have anything ready for the baby. We plan to wait until the baby shower and then we'll do our shopping afterward and get the nursery ready. I guess after next week, we'll have a lot to do. We also booked out maternity photo shoot for next weekend. I have no idea what that will be like but i hope it'll be a fun time and we'll get some great pictures out of it. Hopefully i still look good by then.
I haven't slept well these days, i just can't get comfortable. I would wake up constantly and can't go back to sleep. This makes me even more tired during the day. Usually, i can do a 10 hours work day with no issues but now i'm beat by 6th hour. It's not easy to make up hours any more if i have to go to doctor appointments. And of course, i do not want to use my vacation hours. Not that i have a lot to begin with.
