2009 Pregnancy/baby thread

[AdoreMyDogs]

Oh, yeah, it absolutely helps that I'm not uncomfortable at all. I do tire easier, but it's not unbearable and I just rest or go to sleep when I feel the need. We're excited to see her, too.

And, as far as more photos, I completely agree with you! we need more. I will definitely be starting a thread for photos of Clara...probably will just make one thread for photos of her, since I think everyone here who knows me at all knows I will photograph her obsessively.

I never got uncomfortable with Quinn either. Not at all. I walked a mile at least every day, even the day before she was born. I walked through my Braxton Hicks. My doctor kept telling me I'd get uncomfortable but it never happened. I did get uncomfortable with Vince towards the end but it was because I was chasing around a toddler all day, was not getting near enough sleep, and weighed lots more then I did with Quinn. It's so fun to be huge pregnant and completely comfortable Enjoy it!!! You will miss being pregnant since you're so comfortable. Cherish the last days of the miracle of pregnancy. Cherish those hiccups, you will miss those. It'll be amazing to meet your daughter, but you will miss carrying her in your body.

Oh, Leslie, your family is wonderful. Quinn is absolutely beautiful. I can't believe how grown up she is. :/ Scary! But, in a good way, of course! And, your little Frenchy is precious, that is SO funny. And, yeah, he'll hate that story! Hopefully he grows out of that, I can imagine how welcome that little quirk will be at school, hahaha.

I've been having Braxton Hicks for a couple months now and they are pretty frequent. They don't hurt but they are definitely awkward sometimes. It's amazing the shapes my stomach will take! David can just look at me and tell.

And, I'm already anticipating missing my belly. I know I'll love having her to hold and see and love on the outside, but I LOVE being pregnant. I have never felt more like a woman, and I get so many compliments about how great I look. And, it's nice, because it's 99% women, and that's just unusual. Besides the basically vain aspects of why I like it, I love feeling her move around. And, she's really the safest she'll ever be, and that's a feeling I'm sure I'll miss.

All that being said, I'm really excited to meet her.

Vince is so cute! I love the pictures of he and Quinn together, they look so happy! I'm glad to hear he's such an easy going baby- you can even tell in his pictures he looks so relaxed and happy. Thanks for sharing the pictures!

No news today! My parents are en route, though, so that's really exciting! They are due to arrive tomorrow evening, yay! Our appointment is tomorrow at 4 and then we'll find out when the induction will start (either Thursday night or Friday morning). Either way, my parents will be able to be there with us! Unless she chooses to come tonight or early tomorrow. It would be nice to find out tomorrow that she's dropped a little and/or that I'm dilated, even if it's just a little bit!
