35 weeks today...and only 35 days to go. It's definitely becoming real that our lives are about to change pretty drastically. We had our childbirth class yesterday - it was interesting, but not terribly informative. I felt like a complete nerd - the only one asking questions, but she confirmed much of what I'd already read. Tyler was extra grossed out during some of the videos including the placenta delivery - I have to admit, so was I...somehow no one ever talks about that part. Every woman in the videos had an unmediated birth which was pretty uncomfortable to watch and frankly, not that inspiring. "I am woman, hear my moan for 22 hours." Well - ready or not, here it comes. :)
It's just plain hot today. I've turned into a lily-livered northwesterner when it comes to weather and 80 degrees, 60% humidity is hot and muggy. It COULD be b/c I'm pregnant, but dammit - I 'm just plain hot.
Today has been a catch up day for AARF work. My days are running out - I'm only in the office 4 more weeks (yikes!) working 1/2 days from home on Friday's and then that last week, I'm working for home. I'm planning to start my maternity leave on my due date and feel more confident every day I'll make it till then. It's all very strange - I've never been more prepared with my schedule and surroundings yet less prepared emotionally for any event. Oh well....baby will be here whether we're ready or not!
