As time goes by

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

Im now reaching week 34 according to the doctors due date, and im doing fine. I can still climb those stairs, slow, but I get up. We are starting to get things ready, aka we been spending loads of money on babythings, and other stuff we need. We went to Ikea last week and came home with a bed for the baby, and a biiiiiiiiig bed for us. I allmost felt like crying when Matthew put up the bed, it steals ALOT of space in our bedroom. Now a we have been sleeping in it in a bit more then a week, and i have to admit that i sleep very well in it, and I even think it’s been helping me a bit with my pains. As well as you can sleep when it takes you 10 mins to turn from one side to the other.

We also went down to one of the oldest babyshops in Denmark and ordered pretty much all the “hardware” we could imagen the baby would need. So now everything is waiting for us down there until we desides to go pick it up a cupple of days before im due. So except for some smaller things we are actually done with getting stuff for the kid.

The last mayor thing we been getting has been a washing mashine, it arrived today. All we need now is for someone to come and teach it to do landry, aka make water and power actually connect to the mashine. Going to be great when Matthew dont have to walk 5 floors down to get the washing done.

These days my weeks go by with going to water gymnastic and gymnastik 2 times a week, then there is the odd examine and some massage and physiotherapy. So weeks just drive by. Im planning my birthday the 7th of June where im getting 28 people to come and celebrate that I been here for 30 years. My belly is growing bigger and bigger, and im starting to wonder how big it can actually become. This picture is a week and a half old.

Belly week 32

Both midwife and doctor agree that everything is going as planned, they dont agree totally on the date im due. The Doctor says 7th of july and the midwife says 15th. I choose to belive in the 7th and hope to give birth a day or tree before. Baby dont kick so much more, it have found new fun games, like slideing feet along the ribs, or push lungs/stumach with feet so head get pushed down on the bladder, oh the joy. Its a very active kid theres in there, sometimes i wonder if its a kid or a kangaroo. 

Well to end I went to a fantastic babyclothes shop yesterday. One of the girls from watergyms showed it to me. Im not sure im happy to have found it, but I am happy i don’t know the gender yet, cus that would have made me gone nuts in some of the more gender specific things they had. I ended up with only one set. The first I bought at all. Im a bit proud that I been able to hold back for so long. But this one had cowfeet and is just horrobly cute and not gender specific, and it was hanging there in the right size and all. So here it is.

The first.

Now I need to get the kid some underwear, towels and bedcovers, and then we are ready for arrival. Well that and to get some tidying done so there is space for it as well.

Now I will make some food, and hope that I get to eat without haveing my stomach pushed by small feet.
