Big baby

Happy hump day!

Hanging out, waiting for the Dr. like a tool.

This morning I had my 33 week check up. I was a little off after the holidays (generally our hospital makes appointments for 28 and 32 weeks), but after today I'm back on track. Next visit will be at 36, 38, 39...etc. Seriously getting home stretch status.

Nothing too exciting to report, but little lady is measuring 34 weeks and is officially head down. I was happy to find out she was measuring slightly ahead because all I've heard this pregnancy is that I look small. I don't necessarily feel big, but I think that since I'm tall I carry more length wise and don't get an insane bump. I mean it's definately large and in charge, but I can see why people comment on it not being huge.

Yesterday I had a really weird experience where one of my eyes got blurry and I felt a migraine coming on. A quick rest and some diet coke delivered with lunch, care of a friend, literally brought me back to semi-normal. It was the first time this pregnancy I felt honestly nervous that it could be time to go in, or something could be wrong. I really don't need anything but smooth sailing for the next 4-5 weeks. It also has me back on the go-train again, and needing to get things done.

One thing I've been meaning to share and am definately wrapping up after this week, is a binder of information that I will have at the house for a friend who will care for Grace while I am in the hospital. Right now it looks like this:

It contains different pages with the following information:

• Important Phone Numbers
• House Information
• Dog Care
• Grace
• School information
• Schedule
• Hygeine information (i.e. bath time routine, teeth brushing, where we keep diapers, wipes, etc)
• Meal preferences

That's what I have up to this point and am just finalizing everything. I will also include some cash (for food, gas, or anything that comes up). Anything else you all can think of or have found helpful?

OCD much? Yes, yes I am. Because at this point I'm more concerned about Grace functioning while I'm gone then the actual process of labor itself. I'll be okay, and I know she will be too, but having peace of mind about it all will make me feel at ease and hopefully help things run smoothly.

Alright, that's it for today. Work is getting busyyyy and the UPS guy just pulled up. :)

xo,
