I have been very blessed with an easy pregnancy but I know that next several weeks are going to be the most uncomfortable and LONG. I am now starting to experience not being able to bend over, the heart burn, backaches, exhaustion, lack of sleep and water retention! Between my two doctor appointments, which are two weeks apart, I had gained a whoppin' 6 pounds! Holy cow! A couple of days after that appointment I discovered that I have one ankle more swollen than the other and I can no longer wear most of my winter shoes! My hands are a little swollen too, so I can no longer wear my wedding rings! The Doctor didn't seem to concerned, as it is normal in pregnant women and my blood pressure is normal. At my last appointment, I was measuring a little small too, so next week I will get to have another ultrasound! I can't say that I am upset about getting to see Kylee again!
This week, we took on the challenge of completing the baby room! We put together all of Kylee's things including the stroller, car seat, swing, Boppy seat, etc.. Well, I don't know if the word "we" is appropriate here....... Chris played with the new video monitor (which is quite neat), as I put together the Boppy seat and swing! He was totally amazed by all of Kylee's things! I also washed all her clothes and put everything away. It was a bit overwhelming to get started, so I had Kim come and help me :) Thank goodness for her Organizational skills and OCD!! We also bought the rest of the things we needed before Kylee's arrival. All I have left to do is make room in the kitchen for bottles and formula and get all that cleaned and set up! Hopefully the next appointment will go well and I will get to post some ultrasound pictures!
