April is here!

Hard to believe it’s already April and that our little man is likely to arrive next month! (Unless he is really mean and waits until June) The weeks are flying by now and everything is coming together. Mike’s been busy around the house getting things done and we have pretty much all the ‘basics’ needed for Miles. We have another baby shower this weekend in Vermilion and are very excited!

I’ve been feeling decent. I shouldn’t complain. Everything is healthy and progressing. But I’m definitely to that stage of being really sick of being pregnant. It’s so hard to even get out of bed, which is amplified by the need to get up a minimum of 5 times a night to pee. Sleeping on my side is making my hips ache. (I’m normally a tummy sleeper) And sleeping on my back isn’t allowed at this point. I’m starting to swell off and on. Some days I can wear my rings, some days I can’t. I’m also starting to have Braxton Hicks contractions. These are normal and not painful at this point but can become quite annoying.

So other than me complaining about being the size of a small house everything is good. I am now going to checkups every other week and we have an ultrasound at the end of the month to check out Miles’ size and position. Can’t believe he’s due in just under 7 weeks!!!!
