Time that is. The baby was 33 weeks last Monday and it feels like the weeks just keep passing faster and faster. I wouldn't mind as much if we were a little more prepared. We don't have a crib yet (though we've ordered one which will hopefully be here in the next week or two) or a bed for our doula (Ally's mom) once the baby comes. We still need a dresser for baby's room as well, but I'm less concerned about that in the near term. We do have a car seat, stroller, onesies, and diapers, so worst case I think we could bring a baby home and get by.
We went in for our regular check-up today with Dr. Aliabadi. Situation normal, not much to report. Baby seems happy and healthy. Baby moves a lot now which is fun, at least for me... it makes me feel a little more involved. Ally and I spend our time reading books in preparation for the arrival. We also just finished a four week birthing class at Cedars Sinai last week. I feel like I have a better understanding of what may happen, but still feel woefully unprepared and remain a little scared to take care of a baby. Oh well, baby is coming either way.
Soooo much fun to have a little one on the way. I know a rude awakening awaits when baby is external mothers belly, but for now we can't wait to meet our baby.
