Getting Bigger! Getting Ready! Oy!

I have a 5 pound baby in me right now! I can't believe how she has been growing. It is so true that the last trimester has the fastest growth time. I feel really small compared to some other moms to be, but that is ok. I am my own person and I know that my baby girl is going to be ok. Got new pictures yesterday. Because how she is positioned I got pictures of her head. She is on target for growth at 34 weeks. 5 pounds and in the right position to be delivered. Kind of freaked me out a little now that I know she is with head down. But I was told that is normal and she will be like that until she is born.

She is moving all around and is getting into a routine. She is more of a night baby I believe - but does have her moments during the day.

The house is getting in order. Working on organizing things and making sure I have everything for her arrival. The crib is in progress of getting up - so I know it will be together by the time she gets here. I can't wait to see it all put together.

I am nervous and hope that I will be a good mother. I don't know what to expect. You can read every book but it isn't real until the baby comes. Then the work begins.

Gain another 2 pounds in 2 weeks. I believe I have gained a total of 11-12 pounds - and to think, 5 of that right now is her - kinda makes me happy. I have known others to gain 30-40 pounds. I am glad I am not there.

5-6 weeks to go - it's almost time!
