33 week chalkboard

Dear sweet little one,

ONLY SEVEN WEEKS TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

How far along: 33 weeks + 1 day

Gender: Little baby girl <3
Name: Waverley Violet
Maternity clothes: Yes, and as much as I am loving dressing the little huge ass baby bump, I was thinking this week about how nice it'll be to wear cute shorts again this summer (they just don't make cute maternity shorts).
Best moment this week: Caroline came over on Saturday afternoon and hung out until we put Pemberley to bed at 7pm. It was so fun seeing her and just catching up! I miss my sister :) It was also pretty neat to find out on Friday morning that the ladies who work at Dunkin Donuts had a bet going as to if I only ordered decaf iced coffee because I am pregnant - haha!

Worst moment this week: Explaining to my students that Waverley doesn't fart in utero. The joys of teaching 8th grade...

Miss anything: Sushi. I'd love to go out on a nice sushi date for Valentine's Day, but sadly, that'll have to wait until next year.

Movements: Big kicks and punches! Sometimes they cause me to stop and have to catch my breath!

Cravings: Well, sushi, now that I'm thinking about it. And crunchy cookie butter. But not together because gross.

Queasy or sick: Feeling pretty fabulous :)

Looking forward to: Getting this week over with so we can go hear Waverley's heartbeat on the 16th. (OB/GYN appointment counts are down to FIVE!)

Wedding rings on or off: Still on! Minor victory!

Belly button in or out: Flat as a pancake. Mmmm...pancakes...
Stretch marks: Miraculously, none.
Labor signs: Nothing yet, aside from Braxton Hicks. I'm anxious to see if I'm dilated at all in a few weeks!

Despite no labor signs yet (thank goodness), I still have a feeling you'll come a little bit early like your big sister did. I really can't wait to see what labor is like with you, even if that sounds a little crazy. People are telling me all the time how the second is much easier than the first (and after Pemberley's 12 hour labor, I desperately need that to be true!). Either way, I grow more and more excited to meet you every passing day. I love you, Little Miss Waverley!
