There's a BABY moving around in there...

You know, some days you just wake up and think "WOW, am I PREGNANT, or what?!" Of course other days you wake up and think "how can it be morning already?!" because you seem to have hardly slept all night, due to that large and uncomfortable mass that has developed inside of you over the past 8 months. Recently I've been having more of the latter type of morning. This week in particular, sleep has been elusive and headaches just the opposite.

Pickle particularly seems to enjoy moving around a lot recently--which is just lovely, when I am (or want to be) awake. It is a little less enjoyable when I am trying to sleep, and when the moving around starts to feel like Pickle is trying to shove a limb through my belly!

The ever-growing belly, in week #30.

Today we started week #32...which means that we have just 6 weeks (from today!) until we are considered full-term! Ack! Where did the time go?!

Andy and I have both been busy working...but don't worry, we still find time for our leisurely pursuits as well. Recently Andy has started playing WoW, and Jess keeps knitting away to her heart's content.


Pickle's mittens, recently finished. (Thanks to Ellie for the company while knitting these!)


Andy's sweater...mostly finished several weeks ago, but I finally got around to sewing in a zipper. Here he is trying it on for the first time post-zipper-install, pre-blocking.

  • Jess,

    Glad to hear that pickle keeps kicking. That's a good sign, though it may not always be restful for you!

    6 weeks likely will go fast. Then hopefully you'll have a few more weeks before actual delivery.

    See you at Christmas!

    Dad
