Belly Shot- 34 Weeks!

Fa la la la la laa la la la. Tis the Season to be fat and jolly! Thanks to this baby bump, I've got that covered. Now, come over here and tell Santa what you want for Christmas.

Belly Shot- 33 Weeks!

The Little Sherman is gaining about a half a pound a week. What does that mean for me? Probably double. Speaking of double, I'm happy that my good friend double chin has stayed away. Not that anyone is looking at my chin these days....

Countdown Cutdown.

The fact that I am planning on having a C-section means it needs to be scheduled. It also means that it gets scheduled a week before the due date. Which means, that it chops one whole week off of that 40 week countdown. I'm technically "due" on Feb 3, but my doc only does her craft on Wednesdays. So, while we thought we had all of January to hang-out before the Little Sherman arrives, turns out Jan 26th at 7:30 am will be the big debut.

Yes, I'm choosing C-section. The chief reason being I'm not very interested in child birth. I'm fine with being preg, fine with raising a little human. But, the thought of birthing said little human sort of makes me physically ill. I also have some back issues that, in my mind, can count as some sort of medical contingency factor in the decision. Mostly though, it's the birth thing.

I'm not going to lie, it is kind of weird scheduling it, like you take away the whole natural/surprise/waiting aspect of "going into labor" so it sort of is like an item on a list. When I think about it, I start to waiver... and then I think about giving birth and start to get nauseous....so idk. For now, it's scheduled :P

Belly Shot- 8 Months!

Oh, the next-to-last month. How you've snuck up on me so. One would think that I was due any moment...but, apparently we aren't done growing yet. So, bigger yet we shall get. Goody.

Belly Shot- 32 Weeks!

The countdown continues to go down, the belly continues to go out. The Lil Sherman is about 4 lbs now...still, that's about 10 lbs less than what is in my bra. Too bad the bigger belly doesn't give them a little bit of a lift while its at it.
