Questionaire

How far along? 33 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: last doctors appointment 2 weeks ago I was down 13 pounds
Maternity clothes? Yes... had to get some new shirts, the belly is really starting to grow
Stretch marks? Yes :( Just noticed a few new ones on the lower side
Sleep: I miss sleep! I love sleep way to much and I am having a really hard time getting comfortable
Best moment this week:
Getting to see our little boy again today. His head is down low so I could not see his whole face but it was neat to see how much his feet have grown. The ultrasound tech measured him at around 3.75 pounds
Movement: he is not a huge mover but every once in a while he gets a really good jab in
Food cravings: Right now I am really craving Calamari which sucks because it is on the no no list... BOO
Gender: Boy - the ultrasound tech told me that he is definitely and that he has "a schwack of hardware" hahaha
Labor Signs: Lost my mucus plus last week end but for right now I am pretty sure he is staying put
Belly Button in or out? Still in but it is getting much less so by each week
What I miss: I miss everything that I am not supposed to eat
What I am looking forward to:
playing with the babe and maternity leave! I am so over work
Weekly Wisdom: I have nothing wise to say
Milestones: Seeing baby again. Even though I new everything would be okay I am always afraid before I go in for ultrasounds... always sure they are going to tell me something bad

What is that??

Warning * maybe be way to much information for some*
This morning I was in the shower, cleaning myself as usual when I discovered something strange in my private region. It looked like a big booger came out from my vag. Well as you may be thinking yes it was my mucus plug, at least some of it. I was at first completely grossed out and then I was worried. I am only 32 weeks why is my mucus plug coming out now??

I looked around on the internet and from what I can see there is nothing to worry about. It could regenerate itself. So I am going to mention it to my doctor at my next appointment and go from there. I wonder, when do most pregnant loose their mucus plugs?

Valentines Day

Happy Valentines day to all those we love!

The lessons life tries to teach us

I have not been writing much on here lately mostly because all of the things going on in life are starting to become a little more then I can handle.

At the end of December M was laid of from his job due to lack of work at his company. At first I was not worried as I was sure he would find a job right away and life would be just as it was supposed to be. Well tomorrow is the first day of February and M still has no job. He tells me that he is trying his hardest to find a job and I believe him. I only have 7 weeks of work left, OMG 7 weeks, and there is no possible way that M and I can both be collecting EI and still pay all of our bills. I am trying to think positively but it is getting really hard!!

Why does life try to teach us lessons at the most awkward times? We are expecting a baby in 10 weeks, building a new house and trying to get renos complete on our current house. Right now is not the best time for M not to be working.

I know that people say god won't give you more then you can handle but I am not sure I believe that right now. You would think gall stones would be enough for one pregnant cranky lady to handle but I guess god thinks I am one strong lady because lord knows I am not sure I can handle all of this for much longer.... So with that said here is my prayer... please let M find a job within the next 4 weeks. PLEASE!

First Baby Shower

Today Is my first baby shower and I am looking forward to celebrating this little bundle of joy with the wonderful women I work with. I will hopefully post some pictures later on.
