Today we reach a milestone: full-term. Baby is now able to thrive on his/her own no matter when the little sunshine decides to make an appearance. Nesting is also in full effect and helpful right now since we have to pack for our move to Las Vegas. Baby is gaining about 1/2 ounce a day and getting his/her first sticky poop (called meconium) ready. Can't wait for Derrick to be around for that one. :-) Baby is blinking, sucking, inhaling, exhaling, and gripping successfully - getting ready for the outside world.
I'm trying to stay as active as possible. Still walking, although slower and shorter walks. I try to alternate between the elevator and stairs but i prefer to take the elevator. The stairs plus getting up from bed and off the floor with this extra weight is really making my glutes work. I might come out of this with a better tush!
My sweet husband comes home tonight. It will be our last few days as just the two of us. After this week, visiting of excited grandparents commences and we will have a joyous baby to share life with. It's bittersweet. We have a doctor's appointment Wednesday morning, otherwise we'll probably take it easy and just enjoy the company of each other.
