Focus

I am ready to focus on me! I know that sound egotistical, but I don't mean it that way. For this whole pregnancy, I have been thinking of other things. Besides the daily family stuff, I'm always waiting for a client to have her baby and I've been looking for a house while worrying about ours selling. I am at that point in me pregnancy where I really want to just think about me and this baby. I want to think about my birth and how I want it to be and to begin to prepare. I want to think about the baby, come up with names, decide if I want to do cloth or disposable diapers, start washing things. I'm not really worried about getting everything done- 60 days is still plenty of time, I'm just ready to make that my focus. I feel as if this baby has been neglected. That is not the case as I try to eat right, take my vitamins, see my midwife, and am planning the best start of life possible for him/her. I just have not gotten to think as much about this one. That also helps the wait though. Time has certainly flown and before I know it, this baby will be in my arms.
On this note, I saw Debi yesterday. Everything is going great still. I always do well with pregnancy and this time is no different. The baby is great and has moved into a head down position. He wasn't last visit, so that is a relief to know. Now in my 3rd trimester, I certainly feel pregnant. I have some trouble at night, but I am still getting enough sleep so that's okay. The Braxton Hicks have started too. Just a few a day that I can feel, but again, nothing that I could complain about. I'm looking forward to this birth and have some fear too. the fear is really just for the unknown part of it all. I just hope this one is a little easier than Lily's. Although I had a long,hard birth once and can make it through another if I have to.
