Another Baby Update

Well, little Mr. Kemp has decided that he doesn't want me to have much lung space.  I've had a more difficult time breathing in the last week or so, and today I learned why.  I had another doctor's appointment (routine one), and learned that he is now measuring at 37 weeks, and I am 32 weeks and 5 days, so he's big (duh).  I also gained 5 pounds in the last two weeks... yikes!  His heartbeat is still strong, but my blood pressure was a bit higher than normal today (I think it's due to the fact that I can't breathe as well, so walking is much more of a chore lately), so they're seeing me in one week next instead of two weeks.  Wahoo! lol
I also got the changing table put together yesterday, and bought the travel system today too.  It's all coming together... now I just need to put his clothes in the dresser, and organize the room... and wait for the glider and ottoman to get there... then I THINK we MIGHT be ready, at least minimally!  We're getting there!!!

The breathing thing should get a *little* better after he drops down. I think a lot of mommies find it a little easier once the baby is deeper in the pelvis. Of course by that point you are starting to hurt in other places...bet you can't wait!
