9 weeks until Baby Girl's due date...
The time is passing so quickly, but at the same time I feel like I have been pregnant forever. I feel like my whole life revolves around me being pregnant. (Not that there is anything wrong with that, it is just an interesting thing to realize). I believe it's the process of becoming a mom, it's pretty amazing. It is also terrifying. Having every decision you make directly impact another persons future is crazy, and I'm so grateful I don't have to do it alone, that I have such an amazing husband to be our little girl's daddy. Seriously, he's already an amazing father and I can't wait to see him grow in that portion of his identity.
This week I started a Prenatal Yoga class that will go up to about a week before her due date. I have never done yoga before and so far I love it. Yoga is not easy, especially since I am not flexible but it already is helping with aches and I know it will help my body be more prepared for childbirth. Also, John and I are trying our best to go on walks after work everyday, we aren't always able to do it, but as much as possible we go. I love it because not only is it good for baby and preparing my body for childbirth (the reason I do so many things nowadays) but it gives us time to just talk. We basically spend all of our time together since we work together, but having that time away from the stress of work and our chilling at home just to be together and talk is one of my favorite things.
Update on Baby Girl:
Seriously she moves SO much. Sometimes I just sit there and watch my belly change shapes as she moves about. And John loves feeling her move, I don't think it will ever not amaze him. :)
At our mid pregnancy ultrasound she was breech, I'm pretty sure she has finally flipped, but I think she is diagonal, I'm praying she gets herself head down in the next 9 weeks.
When my bladder is full I think she thinks it's a punching bag or something. When I'm up and about she decides my ribs are her own personal dance floor and randomly she decides to get as far up under my ribs as she can, making it hard to breathe. None of it is painful, it surprises me sometimes but I love it.

9 weeks, give or take a couple weeks and our baby girl will arrive. John and I will officially be on the crazy road that is parenthood and I am so excited for the love and challenges that are to come.
