Jackson likes to kiss my belly
Jackson wanted to make sure Cooper got in the picture too
I have been feeling good lately. I get tired so easily which is funny since I spend so much time doing nothing and laying around at home. I do feel some pressure. This baby sits so low! I am not having (or at least not feeling) any contractions which is good! I have been going every other week to both OB and Perinatal. They stop measuring cervical length by 34 weeks and mine looked good the last time we were there (around 2cm) so as long as I don't have anything major going on in the next couple of weeks I will just see my OB every week from here on out.
These last few weeks I have been crazy about peaches. I tend to eat 2 every day! I haven't had tons of cravings this pregnancy but then I didn't last time either. I have been into baking yummy treats with blueberries and have made several lemon sweets as well. Normally I don't drink much milk but have been enjoying a glass of milk here and there in the evenings either when I have some cookies or by itself.
Sleeping has been ok. I flip from side to side all night and tend to wake up around 2 or 3 every night and am wide awake for a couple of hours. Last pregnancy I loved my Boppy body pillow yet this time I have only used it one time.
I need to start packing my hospital bag and get Jackson's big brother present ready. When I was pregnant with Jackson I hadn't packed my hospital bag so when we wound up in the hospital at 33 weeks I was not prepared! I also need to start washing all the baby things - blankets, burp cloths, car seat, bouncy seats, etc! I love that sweet smell of Dreft and can't wait to have a nursery of baby things ready for when this baby is born.
We are getting closer on names and have a girl name and a boy name we like but haven't decided for sure. At our last ultrasound Jimmy said he thinks it is a girl from the profile and face. My mom agreed but I can't tell. I am still thinking its a boy. My only hope is that it is a happy, healthy baby!
Jackson is always talking about the baby. When we ask him if he thinks it's a boy or a girl he says "no!" He loves to lift my shirt and say "hi baby" to my belly. But sometimes if my shirt rides up and he sees my bare belly he pulls it down and says "no baby!"
