SO close!
7:51:00 PMUnknownHello all! Had my Doctor's appointment today and my belly was looking HORRIBLE so I figured something was wrong. Turns out my skin is reacting very poorly to the stretching. Basically, the baby is growing perfectly but my belly is not. =( My skin freaked out! So it is all red and raised and looks AWFUL, but she said I am doing everything right (moisturizing, not scratching) and she prescribed a cream to help. She did say that I need to take it easy to allow the swelling in my feet to go down. I told her I didn't think I had been THAT busy at which point she said that our definitions may be different. I know, I KNOW. Moving on, everything else was perfect. No weight gain (part of why my belly is stretching too much) and perfect blood pressure. Baby sounded great. I have one more appointment in 2 weeks at which point they will do an ultrasound to check her position and size for labor.... then I start going every week! Wow. I am at THAT point.
SO excited.
I purchased some organizers and a diaper caddy so I can get her room organized. I have so many of the items from the shower just sitting about b/c I prefer to have a nice specific place for everything before I put it away. Now I do! Earlier this week I washed all of her bedding, clothing, etc. with Dreft so it is all ready! The crib is finally made up and looks WONDERFUL. =)
The house is SO close. Just random things left, like hanging pictures or taking things to goodwill.
The baby shower video is up on youtube. =)

i am really not wanting to use dreft. i love gain apple mango and downey liquid fabric softener. i used that on all the baby clothes i've gotten so far. my baby better not be allergic to anything, or i'm screwed.
ReplyDeleteI actually use All Free and Clear on all of the family's clothes including the baby's. It's 1/3 the price and is scent and die free, which is the whole point of dreft right? Save your dollars for those cute outfits! Glad you had a great shower!
