12 more weeks or 82 days or 3 months
until this BABY GIRL makes her debut!
And I'll tell ya, I don't think it can come fast enough.
If I didn't have a gazillion things to do before she comes, I'd be wanting to be done NOW.
This pregnancy has been SOOOO different from Drake.
The memories I have of my pregnancy with him are filled with excitement, giddiness, and a general good attitude about the aches and pains of his pregnancy.
This time has been so much harder- it must be a combination of it being my second pregnancy, not being in the best of shape, and chasing a toddler around- but I just hurt everywhere and I'm super irritable about it.
Really, I could write a novel complaining, but who wants to hear that.
In summary, my back is killing me at all times, I've tried lots of things with no success, and I had the same pain with Drake and it never went away until I delivered him, so I'm sure it's just the way my body carries babies and it's here for another 3 months.
So....let's end this pity party right now and talk about the good things, ok?! :)
1- My husband has been amazing! He does so much for me and expects nothing in return. He's patient and understanding. AND, he drove the whole 12 hours to Utah and the 12 hours back to California last week because I can't sit up in a car. He's the best!
2- Drake is hard at times, but in all reality, he is such a good little boy. He says the funniest things lately and I know his darling, silly personality comes straight from a loving Heavenly Father who is trying to help me keep my sense of humor. I love him so much and I can't wait to see him learn to be a big brother! Lately, he is showing so much more interest in his little sister and it's the most adorable thing. Moments like the one pictured above just melt my heart and make me so excited for the future.
3- I have a baby in my belly! Through all these hard times (b/c this pain really is a trial in my life right now), I haven't forgotten just how blessed and fortunate I am to have a body that is growing a little miracle right at this moment. It's amazing! I love this little sweetie inside of me so much and I love the connection that I'm building with her. Oooh, I just can't wait to meet her. I'm truly thankful to be pregnant.
So.....These are my thoughts at 28 weeks pregnant....the bad and the good. :)
