Slowin Down - A Few Updates

Photo: @shelahlei snuck a picture of me using baby C as a shelf! #babyc #gettinclose #crunchtime

i'm getting slower and slower these days....trying to keep up at work but find myself in the office all day long (with the exception of walking to lunch on orientation days). i am trying to stay working as long as possible so that i don't use up my disability/maternity leave before baby C arrives - this is tough!

i don't understand how my mommy worked until she went into labor (mind you she was @ work when she started labor with older sissy) and her job was much more demanding....i wish i was wonder mom already! She was!!!

Speaking of my momma - it is her and my dad's anniversary!! So excited for their many years of marriage today (i believe it is 36!) 

Anyways, my momma was wonder mom and i don't know how she did it! 

(The above picture was taken at work....baby C is now big enough for me to use as a shelf!!)

So my belly has broken out in a rash. It is so incredibly itchy and i'm trying my best to not scratch! i've tried it all...cocoa butter, oils, Hydrocortisone cream, Benadryl cream - nothing works!!! It is so frustrating! Itchy, itchy!! 

i am also experiencing lots of pressure and a little pain in my pelvic area - hopefully this means that baby C is "dropping". i know that he is in the right position for birth but the more he drops the quicker he will make his appearance!!! i hope he's ready soon! Monday will be 36 weeks - the "old" full-term. So, i take this as he's ready but could cook a little more...

No matter what, i know that if he comes now he will be healthy and ready! Hubby and i are ready as well! We finished birthing class last night and are all prepared for labor - that's if i even get to labor (i may have to have a c-section). i see my doc next Friday and will know more information! 

Anyways, thanks for stopping by! 

Until next time...ta ta for now!
