[almost] 34 weeks!


Tomorrow I will be 34 weeks! I just wanna say HOLYCOW time flies. I guess I wasn't really done with the blog post last time. I think I just get tired/bored with it and post a picture and peace out. Haha BTW The picture in this is for 33 weeks, since I didn't post one then.

Well, I suppose a lot has been going on since then. First off, I didn't update about our hospital tour-- but we did that a couple weeks ago. It was really good to go and see where I'm actually going to be. The building is kinda huge and we had no clue where we were going, but I think we do...NOW. 4th floor is labor and delivery and the labor suites are soooo nice. I am really happy with it, I think. It's in a new building(?) at OU Med so everything is updated. They room-in so there is baby bed and my bed and couch and tables and everything and they said you can have as many people in the room as you want. I just think it's nice to have enough space to have that option. So I learned a little bit there about the hospital and stuff.

In my last post I said there were just a few things we have left, but now the list is even shorter. I got my diaper bag -- love it! Got the bouncer Saturday and put it together Sunday. And I got my wetbags-- 1 medium, 1 large, 1xlarge. I read the measurements, but they are smaller than you'd think. I hope they hold some dipes!

Speaking of cloth. All my diapers are prepped. My stash consists of only prefolds/covers now, no All in Ones yet. I have 15 Indian unbleached prefolds, 24 bleached Chinese prefolds, 2 small Bummis SWW, 1 NB proraps, and 3 xsmall thirsties covers. I guess we will see how big she comes out and see if I have enough covers? Hahaha! I almost bought some seconds the other day but decided against it. I think next time I want some cloth I will check out the Green Bambino (like the only local store in OKC).

I have also washed all my newborn sized clothes and the REALLY small ones that she will be able to wear soonest. And all of the burp cloths, washrags, towels, etc.

I think my next tasks are really laying out my birth plan and packing our bags.

I'm going to a breastfeeding class Nov. 6 also. That should be good.

I got a call this morning from OU and when I called back the girl who verifies insurance told me that mine terms on Monday. When is my next appointment? MONDAY. WTF. BTW, it shouldn't term. I don't think...unless they are putting me on Tricare MOST AMAZING INSURANCE IN THE WORLD instead of Tricare Prime. But I dont think it exists. Seth is Active duty now, but REALLY active duty starting the 1st-- if you ask me. I don't get it! What's going on??!
Yeah, so that's the current dilemma. Will I be covered?

32weekish update!

Well, well well! WHAT IS NEW? :)

JEEZE. When I think about it I have a lot to update about! Since I last updated, we had our church shower. It was amazing. So many people came and we got a crazy amount of stuff. AWESOME stuff. That we NEEDED. All we really have left is a diaper bag (it's picked out, just gotta buy it! $$), breast pump and a few more supplies, bouncer and/or (I'm thinking and) swing, sleepy wrap and babyBjorn, and wetbags for the cloth diapers! WOOOOO!

We have put the bedding on the crib. Kinda. :)


Speaking of cloth diapers. I got the rest of my prefolds today! I may start washing them Wednesday or so. I had to wait like 30 minutes at the post office to get them. Pain in the butt. I hate shipping stuff USPS.

We had an appointment Wednesday. It went well. We were on time and she was on time so we actually went in early. Everything's looking good. My blood pressure was good and I had no weight gain. I forgot to ask about my fundal height but she didn't say anything so assuming baby is growing normally! I keep getting bigger!
