My doctor appointment this week went really well. I'm still on bed rest and will continue to see my doctor every week now. Although being on modified bed rest can sometimes make me feel extremely LAZY, my body feels so much better. I was talking to Oma tonight about how I can't believe I worked at the preschool until I was 7 months pregnant. I really had no idea how big I had gotten! I just dealt with the horrible backache, pelvic pain, and round ligament pain...and I actually thought I was just complaining a lot! If I had known that pregnancy should never be that painful I would have left that job a long time ago!
However, leaving all my coworkers was tough! I spent almost every day with the same ladies for the last three years. It's strange not seeing them every day now. I also miss working with Oma. My mom is my best friend, and it was always so nice to see her on my breaks. But I make up for it by visiting almost every night of the week! :) And the ladies from work are having a baby shower for me next week. It will be SO NICE to see them again! I'm also excited to start getting diapers for Gracie!
And being on bed rest has given me the chance to really enjoy my pregnancy. I have time to feel all of Gracie's kicks and spins, and I get to really start planning for her. I also find myself daydreaming often about what she'll look like. I can't wait to paint her nails and do her hair! And of course I can't wait to snuggle her and kiss her beautiful face. Also - there is just something about the feel of a baby's hair on your face while you're snuggling. I can't wait to experience that with her! Not too much longer!
Before I go - I recently got my car seat for Gracie. Is it weird to say that I love how my car looks with a baby seat in the back? :) I just LOVE it!
