. . . that makes 9 months today! (For those of you who aren't aware, pregnancy is actually 10 months, not 9.) The doctor says she's probably around 5 1/2 pounds and around 18 inches right now. Although, she more often feels like 10 pounds! At this point, I find myself needing help simply standing up.
I guess it's her growing body that makes her movements more and more noticeable . . . because she hasn't slowed down a bit. One of the funniest things that seemed to suddenly appear this month, has to be her hiccups! She hiccups daily . . . in fact, sometimes numerous times a day. (I sure hope this isn't forewarning of a gassy child coming our way . . .)
As you already know, I've been on bed rest for the last week. There's no doubt a difference in my daily life style going from teaching to the couch. I'm not sure how this will effect my maternity leave, but I know it's already been worth it.
The car seat is in . . . the clothes are washed . . . the bags are packed.
Now we wait.
