Still pregnant! My Baby Nathaniel hit 34 weeks yesterday, which is another huge milestone. We had a specialist appointment and he is a hefty 4 pounds 12 ounces (approximately).
Feeling: Relieved we made it this far. Bored being stuck at home. Anxious about when he's coming.
Eating: A lot. Real life (ie, watching what I shove in my mouth) is coming quickly so I am taking full advantage of being able to gorge myself on junk food for the final couple days. The doctors didn't give me any hope of making it this long, so pigging out on candy for a few days seemed like a really good idea. If I stay pregnant for another couple weeks, I might come to regret this decision.
Watching: I never thought I would say this. Seriously. Here we go... I am bored of TV. I am over it. It all sucks. I have been watching mostly murder mysteries. I don't know why. Some of them are so depressing but at least it's a change from all of the other trash reality TV that I usually watch.
Reading: Nothing. Nada. I read a couple books in the hospital and thought I would keep reading here at home on bedrest but nope. I don't know when people who have kids find the time to read.
Looking forward to: Being pregnant another week. 35 weeks is usually the beginning of healthy preemie baby lungs. There is a chance that at 35 weeks, baby will be able to come straight home with us without spending time in the NICU. I can't believe we have made it this far.

Very happy that everything is going smooth! Keep on cooking little one!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're doing well and you're still preggo! I wish I could help keep you entertained haha. Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear all is well. and I would like to know the same... about the reading thing!? I'm lucky if I can get through my Allure magazine each month.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear things are still going well and for the update of that. I think about you often and wonder how things are. I'm sure you are bored. I had surgery a few years ago and was out for like a week on bed rest, and I was ready to be done with that after a few days.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear you and baby are doing well!
ReplyDeleteYay glad things are going well!
ReplyDeleteSo happy that you are still pregnant and that everything is going well. :)
ReplyDeletekeep on cookin!
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking of all kind of things to send you to help you pass time. I'm at a loss!! Let me know what you'd like. TV gets really boring. So glad baby Nathaniel is doing great! Hope you are preggers next week too!!! Happy to read everything is going so good for you!! <3, Amy

Congrats on making it that far! I hope he stays in for at least another week and he'll be able to come straight home with you without a NICU stay.
ReplyDeleteYay! Folks, Team Nate has made it to another week!
ReplyDeleteStill sending prayers. You are almost there keep thinking positive.
ReplyDeleteOn another note... I love the murder mystery shows. I am a true crime buff though. It baffles me every time I read or watch a true crime story how sick people really are. I shouldn't be surpried but I always am.
So happy to hear that you are still pregnant! Great job hanging in there! Hope your next week flies by!
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny, I could hardly eat anything the last few weeks of my pregnancy, and now that my baby is here I am eating like I am Miss Piggy. "Real life" can start when I am done breastfeeding.
ReplyDeleteYou are probably the only person in the world who could put this hysterical of a spin on things. Keep your chin up, XOX
ReplyDeleteOh Jamie I am so glad to read this!! Every day that little mite is in there is another blessing!! And just as a postive note--my cousin just gave birth to her little girl early due to preeclampsia and she weighed exactly 4lbs 10oz and got to go home in 2 days! You've made it, girlfriend! Good luck with the rest of the journey!
ReplyDeleteI love murder mysteries too :) I'm glad that everything is going well!
ReplyDeleteKeeping you and baby in my thoughts!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this. I'm so glad you're doing well - I've been thinking about you guys.
ReplyDeleteSO glad you've made it this far! Enjoy the candy now!
ReplyDeleteCome on Week 35! Looks you all are doing great!!

Hang in there darlin! Not much longer at all to go! XOXO
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear that both you and baby Nate are still doing well!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on making 34 weeks! That's exactly when I gave birth to a healthy 4 lb 3 oz baby girl -- 22 years ago.
ReplyDeleteShe stayed in the hospital a week to gain weight, but otherwise was perfect. I hope you find encouragement in my story. Bless you and yours!
Yea for making it this far!!!! If you have netflix you should start watching Once Upon a Time. It's a great show, but one that you have to watch from the beginning. Just a suggestion. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you and baby are doing good. :)
I gave birth to my son at 35 weeks and he only stayed in the hospital one extra day and came home with us. :) Good Luck!
Yay! This makes me so happy :)
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! I was 4lb 11oz when I was born! I hope you're feeling ok!
ReplyDeleteI remember those bed rest days. No fun, and you're right, TV gets boring!!!
ReplyDeleteMy first was born at 35.5 weeks, just a few days after they released me from bed rest. We stayed an extra day in the hospital, but he got to come home with us.
Praying for that he stays put a bit longer!
You're almost there...in no time he will be here. Very exciting.
