End of Pregnancy Musings
What I'll miss...
- Nora's love taps throughout the day
- The relative ease (though getting harder each day) of you coming along everywhere while in utero
What I know is to come...
- Feedings every 2-3 hours (which I'm getting prepared for now with very broken up sleep in these final weeks of pregnancy)
- Lots of diaper changes
- Lots of adjustments to life with an infant
- Physical recovery from either labor or c-section (which ever ends up being the means to the end)
- A flabby belly that I'll have to work on
- Watching what I eat again (yeah, I didn't care at all while prego:)) and probably joining Weight Watchers again in a few months
What I'm looking forward to...
- Two weeks of special family time while Brent is off work and we all embrace our new family and life together
- Maternity leave and flexibility of schedule as we all adjust to life with an infant again
- Getting to see what Nora looks like
- Gazing at a sweet baby face
- Seeing Luke as a big brother
- Seeing Brent as daddy to a baby girl
- Dressing Nora in all the fun outfits we've gotten
- Fewer (possibly no) trips to the bathroom in the night
- Being able to do the physical things I haven't been able to while pregnant...it's a long list...
