I am at 35 weeks today. I can't believe my due date is right around the corner. I just read that 60% of babies come early...I hope Rowen is part of that 60%. I obviously want him to stay in there as long as he can to get everything developed that needs to be developed before he should arrive but I'm thinking a few days early will be just fine! Maybe he is feeling the same way :) I feel like he has dropped a bit this past week. Since this is my first pregnancy, I don't really know if he has or not but my lower pelvic area is pretty tight and has begun to stay uncomfortable especially when I am walking around.
At week 35, baby weighs over 5 1/2 pounds and is around 20 and 1/4 inches. Tonight Brent and I are going to a baby class at Baptist and I am excited. I just like getting as much information as I can before labor begins! My cousin, Angie, sent me a few emails this past week with "new mommy" info and I loved reading over all the tips that she gave me! I already feel a little bit at ease since I have prepared myself with some things that I didn't know about thanks to her info! Now, I'm not sure that I will STAY at ease the next couple of weeks/while I am in the hospital but I hope that I do. A tour of the hospital is not included in the class tonight but we are going to schedule a tour just so we will know exactly where to go when the time comes. The tour is free.

On my to-do list for tomorrow is to go ahead and pack the suitcase for the hospital. I definitely want to have everything ready to go! I guess I can at least start tossing stuff in there as I think of it. I have 2 lists to go off of also so I will make sure to not forget anything :)
I got a surprise package in the mail yesterday from one of my dear friends Robin!! Well, she told me that she was sending it last week but I totally forgot so when it showed up on the doorstep yesterday I was surprised! And here is what it was:
And a sweet little lovie was in the package too:
So thoughtful of her! Love you Robin! Can't wait for you to meet the little guy when you come in town for the holidays!
Why did they not give you a tour at the baby class? I read that it was included with the tour.
ReplyDeleteIt was included with the childbirth class but not the breastfeeding class and that's the class that we went to.
