I ONLY HAVE 99 DAYS TIL MY DUE DATE!!!!
I can not believe how freaking fast this pregnancy is going by! I feel like there is SOO much to do!
How did you new mommies deal with this?
Re: OMFG!!!
99 still felt forever away for me. I didn't really get my bum in gear until the showers started happening.
And the weird thing now...I have very little memory of the whole thing. I still lok at her and think..."where did you come from?"
Ditto this!!!
My mom and I were talking about this today. I look back and think how when I was pregnant it felt like the time just dragged on. Now, I realize how it was just a small piece of my life and I should have appreciated it more. I think if we have a second child I will appreciate another pregnancy much more . . . be able to realize how much I should really enjoy it.
And honestly, I'm still working on the nursery and realizing there are things out there we don't have but could use. It never really ends. Every time I feel like I have it all organized and ready, she grows into a new size and I have to reorganize her drawers and closet again.
Just try to enjoy what you are going through . . . and take lots and lots of pictures. I had such poor body image during my pregnancy that there are very few pictures of me pregnant. I wish I had taken more pictures to document the experience.
I still have 43 days to go and it still feels like forever! (our EDD was moved 2 days, but I didn't change the ticker)
Like everyone said, enjoy it! I'm just getting started with the uncomfortable stage, and trust me, you want to enjoy the stage you're in!
And take pics and blog if you can. I'm sure Sadie will love reading your pregnancy experience some day! (and so will you)
