pregnancy update
32.2 weeks
over the past few days i've been feeling some pressure that i've never felt before, but it isn't unbearable at all so i didn't do anything about it. after talking with my mom she said i might as well have them check to see if i'm dilated at all at my 32 week appt (which was yesterday). turns out that my cervix has softened about 3 cm and my uterus is trying to contract so they sent me to labor and delivery to get a non-stress test. after about 2 hours of being monitored they decided that i didn't need to be on bed rest, but i just have to "take it easy." what does take it easy even mean?! haha. apparently i have an irritable uterus that wants this baby out. in order to ensure that our baby will be healthy i am going to take it easy so i don't have any more signs of pre-term labor.
other than that i've been feeling great and bigger than ever. luckily i'm not swollen and the only things that hurt at the end of the day are my feet.
since we will only be in this apartment for a short time i'm waiting till we get back up to rexburg to put her nursery together. for now, her bassinet, dresser and a few essential items are all set up next to our bed.
over christmas break my mom and i had too much fun at buy buy baby and ended up packing my baby bag that night needless to say..we.are.ready!
i finished washing all of her baby clothes and they are waiting patiently in her dresser. between the smell of dreft and johnsons baby lotion that i put on my hands each night it smells like full on baby heaven in our bedroom and i love it!

ooh man! I know how you feel! Same thing is going on with me but I am on bed rest! :( Hope everything goes well and you can keep that baby in there for as long as possible! :)
Super fun! so excited for you guys! I saw the pacifiers and I am sure somebody has told you this but the reason they are different kinds of pacifiers are becasue they are shaped similar to different kinds of nipples :) so if you adorable baby girl doesn't like the avent kind try some others before giving up and saying my baby hates pacifiers. they are truly life savers at church and places where you might get dirty looks for having a baby and being so young DESPITE how adorable your baby will be.
