Daddy is painting- 33wks 1 day


I came home from work today to find my wonderful Dh painting the nursery! I love the color and am so excited that the room is starting to come together. He even installed the ceiling light and dimmer switch.

I never thought we would be here. For the last 4yrs I have kept that door closed, not knowing if it would ever be the nursery that I imagined. I would go in there and cry looking at the empty room I so desperately wanted to be our baby's room. I am so thankful for this gift we have been given.

We have a date- 32wks 4 days

We got the call today they scheduled our c0section for 7-7-10! It's crazy to think that in a few weeks he's going to be here. It's crazy to know what his birthday will be. This is all crazy!

I am a little bummed that we have to move forward with the c-section but I wasn't super thrilled about either of the options to be honest lol. I know he has to come out one way or another but I am very worried about the recovery involved with a c-section. I just hope that I am not in to much pain to be able to enjoy him or take care of him. I also worry about being able to see him right away in the operating room. Everyone has assured me I will get to see him and even spend some time with him in recovery which would make me a very happy mama.

The most important thing is that he is healthy and I do what is best for the both of us. I know that I will be so excited to have here in my arms that the pain will not be able to bring me down.

So it looks like I'm going to be a mommy in just about 6 weeks!!

4D u/s-31wks 3d


Well we gave it one last try, and guess what?! Our little guy wouldn't cooperate again! It's ok though we got some pretty good shots of him and it was just fun to get to see him again. I am amazed by how much I love this kid already. I can't believe we are so close to meeting him and having him in our arms. I am scared and excited all at once. I can't believe that I am going to be a mom! I guess after years of trying I began to think I may never be a mom and now here I am weeks away from becoming one.

We got a great shot our the little man with his feet over his head which seems to be his favorite position. We also got to see his adorable chubby cheeks, and the best part was seeing him smile! The umbilical cord tickled his nose and he gave us this precious smile!!

I do think that he definitely has my nose, and may even look like me a little. This of course makes me smile, but shhh don't tell Dh =)

I'm so in love!

4D u/s-30wks 2d



We gave it another try and it's obvious that our little guy does not want us to get a good look at him until the big day! Again he had his feet up over his head and his hands in his face. The tech said he was also nuzzled up in the placenta making it even harder. We did get to see him yawn which was adorable! We did about 20 mins and she told us to come back next week so I guess we'll give it one last try, we're running out of time! I don't mind I love getting to see him, and this will be our third visit so I guess we got our moneys worth.

From what we have seen I think he's pretty darn cute! But to be honest I don't think any 4D picture is going to be good enough for me, I want to see the real deal. I can't wait to stare at his little face for hrs!
