I must apologize for being absent as of late. Today I reached the 37 week mark and I'm definitely feeling it! I'm tired, uncomfortable and just plain slow. To top it all off, last Wednesday my feet and ankles ballooned to about three times their normal size. And Thursday when I went in for my first antenatal appointment (where they monitor the baby's heartbeat), my feet were still swollen and my blood pressure was around 148 laying down. The nurse of course called my doctor pronto and I was ordered straight home to rest for the weekend. Do not pass go-do not collect $200. I go in for another antenatal test on Monday and see my OB on Tuesday, so we will see if I am ordered on home or bed rest for the rest of my pregnancy. Fingers crossed that I am not, because I just might go stir crazy!!
On another note, I hope to post pictures of our home decked out for Christmas soon. I just need to make the house presentable for posting (i.e. clear off kitchen island of all the paper clutter, put away the rest of the shower gifts that have been living on the dining room table, etc.).
And the nursery is almost ready for it's final reveal. The rug and ottoman finally arrived last week!
Until then, here is a little Christmas Inspiration compliments of Pinterest (by the way, if you have an iPhone; which Santa got me for Christmas and let me open early, you MUST download the Pinterest app!)

ReplyDeleteBless your heart. Bed rest is so hard. Take it easy. The end is in sight.
ReplyDeleteHey dear, I was just thinking about you! Hope all is well and maybe, just maybe, your sweet little life-changing pumpkin has arrived!! On the other hand, my little Peeps turns 3 tomorrow, so maybe they could share a birthday. :-) God bless you and Merry Christmas!!
