32 Weeks

No picture of me, but appt went well this morning. Measuring about a week behind, which is fine and I've gained 20 pounds. Soooo...that might explain why my back hates me. 

Here's Piper, queen of Facetime....She may not get to see them often, but she loves FaceTiming with her Washington Grandparents!

Also, it's really not fair how much these two look alike, is it?

31 weeks!

Yay! I love being in the 30's...getting to the finish line feels so attainable. 

And I'm feeling okay. I wake up around 4 or 5 every morning and can't go back to sleep. But other than being a complete zombie, things are good!

Here we are on our after dinner walk last night. I look smaller than I am.

Published on Scary Mommy Today!

An article I wrote was published on Scary Mommy today...check it out! 

It's not so much about Facebook, but kind of just a different way for me to write about my infertility journey. Obviously at the time, I didn't want to write underneath every single photo what was REALLY going on because that would be somewhat confusing, but it is interesting to see that sometimes there is a deeper side to things. I guess I used FB as a jumping off point to get the conversation started. Does that make sense? Who knows. I'm tired:)

30 weeks

30 week beach bump, at your service!

The summer season ended with Labor Day last weekend, so we obviously decided to get our beach time in now. It's perfect because all the stores are selling their last wrinkly peach and all the lifeguards are back at school. We're smart. Luckily, I was able to pull off swimming without dying. Go me!

Anyway, here's photo evidence of the stomach torpedo that houses my crazy kicker...(and a couple extra of my homies)

29 weeks.

Hi, I'm huge.

Sleeping with this massive protrusion (aka baby boy) is becoming pretty painful. I switch sides all night long in a quest for comfort, to no avail.

Still working at the FYI channel...4.5 weeks to go. Hopefully, the commute doesn't kill me. Over 4 miles of walking a day! Aaaaah. I should probably use the subways, but it's so hard when they're disgusting and hot and only save me 15 minutes. Luckily, my back and leg have been feeling better. The doctor ordered me a belly band, but who knows when that'll arrive. 

Anyway, here's my 29 week pic. I look more comfortable than I am!

28 weeks 3D scan!

Due to major pain in my lower right side, I needed to visit the doctor today for a checkup and just to be on the safe side, she sent me for a scan. YAY. Also, the pain is okay - just a pulled ligament and muscle along with lower back pain. Fun stuff. The doctor ordered me a glamorous maternity band. Oh well, at least I got to see the baby!

Seeing him in 3D at this stage is so surreal. He had HAIR. And a real face. And a foot on his head.

Ahh...I just love him so much already:)
