Hello all my loyal followers (yes mom, I'm talking to you) how kind of you to be here, reading this when you could be out gardening (;
I'd say I will be quick BUT we all know I'm a talker... and by talker I mean rambler. I have about a million thoughts on my mind tonight so we will try and weed through the nonsense but I make no promises.
SO here we are, 13 weeks and 3 days from my due date, 94 days until my little man arrives... which means BUM BUM BUMMMMMM 3rd trimester is just around the corner. With that being the case I realize just how LITTLE time I actually have left. I have so many overwhelming thoughts of what needs to be done for his arrival. However, I have quite a bit finished as well.
Finished:
1. Nursery decorations except gallery wall (need pictures of him once he's here to finish it) so i'll put it on the list as done
2. Changing pad/bedding washed and ready
3. Laundry- EVERY sock, blanket, towel, onesie, and outfit little man owns is washed, hung/folded, and put away
Need to complete:
1. Cleaning out the guest/baby bathroom and putting all his gadgets and toiletries away
2. DEEP clean the house. I'm talking EVERYTHING needs to be clean
3. Schedule C-Section date (which I do believe is at my next appointment)
4. Come up with birth plan
5. Pack hospital bags
6. Utah baby shower
7. Enjoy the final months of me time and sleep
I'm sure there is still so much more I need to do, but alas pregnancy brain works in mysterious ways. I swear I have a huge list in my head RIGHT before I go to the doctors office but as soon as she asks me if I have any questions.. I just stare at her blankly and say "Nope." SUPER obnoxious.
The thing that confuses me the most on my "Need to complete" list is the birth plan.. How am I supposed to make a birth plan when I don't even know what I'm supposed to be doing with this whole, have a human come out of you thing.
Also, Cameron hasn't decided if he's going to come home for the birth or not and wants to "wait until it's closer" to decide. I swear every time I talk to him, his answer is different.. So I need to not only make one, but two birth plans for what I need to happen if he is here or if he is gone. Obviously if he's gone than my mom will be in the OR and HOPEFULLY they will allow Cameron to meet our little dude with me via Skype. Also, are birth photographers allowed in the room? Because I think that would be super duper if I could get the moments documented forever ESPECIALLY if Cameron chooses to stay where he's at.
So many what ifs... so many decisions... so many things that still need to be done. I swear I'm not always a basket case and full of so many anxiety causing issues. However, I will stress, worry, and rip my hair out for the next 94 days until my little man is here and my world is just a little more at peace.
Until next time,
