Remember when I was pregnant? Looking at these pictures definitely brings back the memories! Let's just say I am not ready to be pregnant again!
But this is what happens when I am months behind editing photos. Instead of sitting down and editing I look for old photos that I never posted! So for memories sake (I am sure I will want to be able to come back and look at these), I am finally sharing the other half of my pregnancy bump photos!
Plus I did not realize that all my notes for each week were still on my old phone on an app that would not open. It kind of freaked me out. Luckily I was able to retrieve them. But a good reminder to back things up in a more timely manner (because that baby is 8 months old now!). I am currently backing up all the photos off my phone. Don't put it off!!!
Anyways...a trip down memory lane...weeks 23 to 40. It was pretty special to re-read all of these again. It is amazing how easy it is to forget all those sweet memories. Makes me grateful I am documenting our son's weekly and monthly photos on Instagram to look back on.
Week 23 - Sewing lots of baby things. Baby is moving a lot!
Week 24 - Lots of movement. Starting to get more uncomfortable.
Week 25 - Lots of movement. Lots of naps! Hard to get groceries out of the basket!
Week 26 - No room in my belly! Eating very small meals these days! I want all the fro-yo!
Week 27 - Hands are asleep (the beginning of the never ending carpal tunnel!). Painting baby's room. First baby shower this week!
Week 28 - Third trimester is here! Feeling the pregnancy carpal tunnel strong! Had a lovely first baby shower!
Week 29 - Feeling more tired and uncomfortable. Heading to women's retreat! Took maternity photos!
Week 30 - Got our crib! Decided we are going to move to Virginia! :( Feeling tired and uncomfortable (I apparently said this every week!). Hospital tour today!
Week 31 - Brent and I love the baby so much already. It's pretty amazing how this bump is already changing our lives.
Week 32 - Home stretch! Getting baby's room ready! Finally committed to a name! And it is getting hot outside!
Week 33 - Saw baby's ultrasound. A real boy is growing in there! Only 7 weeks left...I'm going a little crazy!
Week 34 - Getting things ready - packed my hospital bag, filled out our baby book, and taking classes at the hospital!
Week 35 - 5 weeks to go! Completed our registries (bought everything we needed left)! Now we just wait!
Week 36 - The countdown is here! Took water aerobics at the gym! Not much room in my belly. Feeling the baby all the time.
Week 37 - Took our labor class and starting to feel ready. Officially full term and baby could come any time!
Week 38 - Can't believe we are near the end! Started sleeping on the couch. Trying to still keep at it (at the gym).
Week 39 - Last week until due date! Crazy! I actually sort of feel ready!!!
Week 40 - Happy due date baby! You can come now! Having more painful contractions. Just waiting...
// We ended up going into the hospital on our due date and our little one was born a few (very long) days later! You can read the story here. And see bump photos from weeks 5-22 here.
And just for laughs, I will leave you with this one...
