Rory is so ready for baby he can't hardly stand it. He asks all the time if today is the day. He told his teachers last week that baby was coming. He wants baby to sleep in his room. Lhana is going to want to hold the baby and cover it up constantly I'm sure! She loves to wrap her babies, feed them, pat them, get on to them, put them in time out, all those things a mommy does, ha! They are going to be the best big brother and sister. I can wait to add a 3rd one to these two smiling faces!
Both Lhana and Rory are so convinced that this baby is a boy. Lhana will NOT let you mention baby girl before she quickly corrects you and says, "No! Baby boy!". Don and I are leaning towards a girl. Eek!! We can't wait to find out!
Maternity Clothes: Yes. But most of my shirts are now too small. This belly is huge!
Movement: it's slowed down.
Sleep: waking much more to pee and roll over, but sleeping good and waking up well rested
What I miss: Moving around with ease. I love being pregnant, but it does get exhausted trying to move furniture or do laundry with this big ole belly.
Cravings: chocolate, fruit, ice cream, anything to drink. I am constantly thirsty.
Symptoms: mild back pain (after moving/lifting patients all night), heartburn, indigestion, strong Braxton hicks, pressure on my bottom, ligament pain, nerve pain in my right leg. This pain is show stopping! I can be walking and suddenly have to grab my thigh and hunch over with pain. It only lasts for seconds and is so random. I think baby has settled on a nerve.
Highlights from this week: Celebrating Easter! The kids hunted eggs at Tanner on Saturday and then on Easter Sunday we had my family over for an egg hunt and then went to Don's parents for dinner and more egg hunting! The weather was beautiful and it was so nice to spend time with both of our families and enjoy this dwindling time as Riggins Party of 4!
