35 weeks...this week!! so crazy we are this close!! we went to the CNM and i am measuring small (belly and weight wise) EVEN gaining 6 lbs since my last visit-- omgoshhhhhh but she said it was about time b/c they keep yelling at me to eat more...eughh (as long as it comes right back off, i'm good :) hehe) his heartrate was wonderful as usual and she said my blood pressure is better than hers! haha

AND we got a list of "how to prepare your body for labor" some natural supplements to strengthen my uterus, so when it contracts, it gets work accomplished (so all the pain isn't in vain) and other pills to soften my cervix... then i asked her, "uhh so when do i start these?!" she laughed adn said..."NOW!" so that was a HUGE reality check- that ITS TIME!!!! wowzas~ i can't believe it! so, of course, i woke up 4 times last night dreaming that i was in labor!! HAHA
from now on we start going every week for avisit and i get cervix checks starting at 37 weeks (1.5 weeks from now) omgosh!! wow!!
here's pics from Dave's bday today...his ice cream cake :)
during my nesting phase- i cleaned out all our old tshirts and clothes we never wear- and made Dave part with some of his favs...BUT had a secret plan already in place...so after he whined and tried to hang on to every shirt... i found a lady on etsy to make a t-shirt quilt to surprise him- so he can keep the t-shirts and memories forever, in a more usefull way than occupying drawer space! haha so here's the product- i think she did an AMAZING JOB!! and...better yet, he was surprised and loves it!!
then she said she found some backing she thought he would love- i just told her to make it OSU themed...how amazing is this?!!!
