Wow I can't believe we only have 10 weeks to go! In about 2 months we're going to have a baby girl. I took a few different pictures this week.... the regular belly pic, the bare belly pic, and the "mommy view" pic (what I see when I look down.)
Last week we started our childbirth class. We've been practicing the breathing which is surprisingly relaxing. I always thought that when I was in pain I wouldn't want any part of that, but it has helped me focus. The lady teaching the class has 7 kids so I'd say she's pretty qualified. She gave us a clothes pin to pinch ourselves with and practice the breathing (although I have a feeling labor pain is going to be a lot worse than being pinched but hey) and the breathing does help me take my mind off of the pain. I'm also liking it because she's encouraging lots of back rubs from our partners (not that I'm deprived of that anyways ;) We have 4 more classes once a week that will end with a tour of the hospital.
Other than that, not much has changed this week. I'm so excited for the beginning of fall tomorrow. As most of you know it's my favorite season, but it's supposed to be about 100 degrees several days this week which is not very fall-like so I'm not excited about that. I don't do the heat very well, especially when 7 months pregnant. I'm contemplating whether or not I should buy any more maternity clothes. I don't really want to buy "winter" maternity clothes to only wear them for a couple weeks. I guess we'll see what the weather's like and I may buy a sweater or two out of desperation. Or maybe I'll just look like a bum for the last few weeks and wear Abe's oversized hoodie sweatshirts and sweatpants. If you see me looking like that, please don't judge ;)
