H-Haus Spring

3.22.2010
Spring has sprung, and I thought I should update photos of the H-Haus. Here's what she's looking like lately:













And speaking of spring, only six more weeks until Violet is scheduled to arrive! Here's a pregnancy update:

How far along? 34 Weeks

Stretch marks? Negatory.

Sleep: So the Charlie horses have mostly subsided. I've been drinking a lot more water and eating a ton of bananas. I've been trying to play some mind games with myself to help with the restless leg syndrome, which seems to have spread to my entire body when I get tired at night. I picture it draining out of my body and it seems to help. 

The hubster has helped a lot. He talks to me in a very soothing voice about physics when I get panicky at night and it helps calm me down and put me to sleep ;) There's nothing like hearing about string theory to make you sleep like a baby. Maybe I'll have him try it out on Violet in lieu of bedtime stories...

Best moment this week: When I had off on Friday and got to just relax and work on my house. I wish every weekend was three days long!

Movement: Crazy movement. More like rolls and undulations now rather than sharp kicks. Lots of bladder squeezing and LOTS of hiccups.

Food cravings: Trying to eat smaller portions lately. I gained a little too much between my last two doctor's appointments (4 or 5 pounds in 2 weeks - eek!). If I keep that up I'll gain another thirty pounds before Violet comes!

Gender: Still a girl!

Labor Signs: Still none.

Belly Button in or out? It's now stretched so far that I'd say it's neither - just flattened now lol.

What I miss: Being able to get out of my sofa, hot baths, wine, not going to the bathroom every half hour, energy, clothes that fit. I could go on...

What I am looking forward to: Having a baby!

Weekly Wisdom: When you're having a girl, you get a LOT of clothes. A LOT. My little girl is going to be styling...
