36 weeks with Lily and Little Man
I think the two pictures are the most similar they have been this whole pregnancy! Lily had dropped by this point.
I been feeling a lot more tired this week, but it could be from all the rain we've been having! One concern that I've had is that I've only gained 18lbs (so far) with Little Man and I gained 25lbs with Lily. Even after two big Thanksgiving dinners I didn't gain anything. I mean, I'm ok with not gaining a lot, I just want our little boy to be getting enough nourishment! If I hadn't lost all my baby weight from Lily before I got pregnant again, I wouldn't really expect to gain as much, but I started at the exact same weight with both pregnancies. Anyway, I talked with my midwife, and she reassured me that everything is ok - that the baby is growing and doing fine.
I'm busy this week getting out orders from my Etsy shop's Black Friday and Small Business Saturday sale and then I've got to get busy on Christmas shopping, goody baking, baby clothes organizing, and many other Christmas/Baby preparations!
lol I wish I had the problem with weight gain! I seem to be a vacuum cleaner lately. I'm almost 37 weeks and I can't seem to go more than 2 hrs without eating something. You look great!
ReplyDeleteYou look great! It won't be long now. . . Make sure to take time to rest in all your busyness.
ReplyDeleteyou're almost there! You look so tiny and beautiful! I'm sure the little guy is getting plenty to eat and you are just super blessed to not be gaining weight anywhere but your belly! :)
ReplyDeleteYou look great!!I bet your getting excited!
ReplyDeletep.s. I was looking through your Etsy shop and just wanted to tell you how cute I thought everything was!
Can't believe you only have 4 weeks left! You look great!
ReplyDeleteWOW, you are so close! I am so excited for you!
ReplyDeleteWe're getting close! :-) If your tiredness is marked, it may be iron levels - my midwife checked mine about a month ago and they had dropped a lot. After really focusing on it for four or so weeks, they've come back up - I can tell by how I feel! Anyhow, I feel for you on the tiredness - especially when you've got a busy little one to keep up with :-) Blessings to you as you enter the last month or so!
ReplyDeleteYou look wonderful! I think you look smaller this time.
ReplyDeleteYou look great! As long as you're eating right, I'm sure he's getting what he needs!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't worry about your weight gain. I am a normal weight and only gained about 18 lbs. when I was pregnant with my son and people would make comments to me about that he was going to be born small and such. I only ate healthy food all through my pregnancy though- I think that makes a difference. My son was a very healthy 7 lbs. 3 oz. Another lady I knew at the time gained about 40 lbs. and only had a 6 lb. full-term little boy. I wasn't quite as lucky as you however- even though I gained 18 lbs- same as you, my belly was huge!
