6 weeks to go

The weeks have been flying by!  Just over a month left to go, we have everything ready but are we ready to do this? This little guy will be done playing hide and seek soon and "ready or not here he comes" 

People have been asking me about if I have had any cravings.  I want to eat cheese burgers and fries instead of steak.  I don't want to eat blue cheese any more, and the smell of Manwich makes me sick.  Other than that no.  I just want lots of food in general. That is what gets me out of bed at 5:45 besides the urge to pee and it is light outside, I am HUNGRY.  Other things, my belly button is not sticking out yet, I have had Sean painting my toe nails and the best of all the hair on my legs has seems to stop growing.  If only that would last!

With only 6 weeks to go, I haven't had a hard time breathing yet, they say before the baby drops that they get into your diaphragm.  I have never been considered a small person so maybe he has plenty of room yet.  I feel him more on my bladder which is why I am in the bathroom 8-9 times a day and 2-3 times during the night.  It makes sleeping hard.  People say "oh but it is good practice for when the baby comes"  well you know what would be better?  Sleeping 8 full hours a night for the last month because when he comes I am sure it will be many months before that happens again! 

I can't complain too much, compared to others I have had it pretty easy.  I am not looking forward to this last month, work is going to be crazy!  We have people off on vacations, we all have to work harder and longer to get the job done.  I just can't move as fast any more, also drawing blood had gotten harder.  Trying to squeeze into the smaller ER rooms with my phlebotomy cart, and 2-3 other people sometimes is hard. Getting down on both knees draw blood, get up, I just keep telling myself I am building more leg muscles doing this.  I feel like a cat who's whiskers are not long enough.  I think I can fit though a space but I can't.  I guess my brain hasn't caught up with how big around I am yet. 

We are having a baby shower/4th of July party.  I didn't want to have any sort of party, I got out of my bridal shower but couldn't talk my way out of this one.  I did get the silly baby games thrown out.  I don't want to guess what candy bar is melted in the diaper, and I don't want to know how many squares of toilet paper it takes to go around my belly. I am happy this is a family/friends cookout party and not just a baby shower. 

I will get a photo on the next update.
