Here I am practicing squatting while on the computer (checking out Sarah‘s new flickr photos). This has become a big part of my daily routine. (Please pardon the mess… it’s “controlled chaos.” And thanks to David for snapping the photos.)
The nesting instincts are really kicking in around here. Laundry. Dishes. Organizing. Unpacking. Cleaning. Cooking. Rearranging. I’ve been busy! It’s rather terrifying actually… and to be perfectly truthful, I am not sure if the house is in better or worse shape. Lots of half-finished projects all around. Lots of organized piles. (The good news is that our taxes are almost done.)
This week I’ve started having a harder time moving around. The baby and I are both getting heavy: thankfully, I’m still well-within the “recommended” weight gain parameters and the baby appears to weigh a healthy amount — our midwife estimates that it may be 7 or 8 lbs already (Yikes!). We’ve started pushing those acupressure points in an attempt to get labor going. Go figure, after four weeks of being on the edge of giving birth, the baby has changed positions and it’s just not as interested in being born right now. C’mon, little one, we’re ready for you! Now.
