Yes. I am still here. And I am still pregnant.
Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I haven't been feeling the greatest. I've had a bit of nausea this past week, mixed with a few headaches, and lots of aches and pains. My hands are really swollen and numb for the majority of my days and nights. Sleep is something I've heard about but have not experienced in quite some time. Heartburn has been ruling my life. My feet and ankles hurt and my back has been killing me. You know, the usual.
Well, actually, for me this is not usual. I have had super easy pregnancies and I don't remember being this uncomfortable for any of my others. But oh well. No big whoop. I am still trying to soak up as much as I can of this (my last) pregnancy.
I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and so far I am not dilated at all. Another first for me since I am usually dilated 2 or 3 cm by this point. I guess it really is true that every pregnancy and labor are different. But because I know for a fact that you can go from no dilation to being in active labor in the blink of an eye I am still on high alert.
I also learned that my doctor will be on vacation all next week so I am guessing that baby will want to make her appearance then since my doctor has been MIA for all of my past deliveries.
So anyway, just wanted to let y'all know that I am still here. I will try to get around to visit you as soon as I can properly feel my fingers again. In the meantime, picture me waddling after my crazy boys in the park, on their bikes, at the lake, in the grocery store, at dinner time, etc. And maybe say a little prayer for me. ;)

You never know, this one might wait until your doctor gets back! Praying for you!
Good Luck and I can't wait to hear the news!
PS I have some good news to share myself...I am now preggers with baby #3, so that will probably be me in about 7 months!
Praying for you right through the countdown. : D
Always sending best thought for a safe delivery and a healthy child. Hope you're feeling better soon... no doubt you will be before too long. :)
Been wondering about you...glad you're as well as can be.
I remember quite well my third pregnancy. I gained so much weight, went 9 days over the due day, and it was hot, hot, hot! I wouldn't trade one day of that pregnancy! We had our beautiful 2nd son, and he is the joy of the family.
Keep us posted!
Saying a little prayer for you. :) Those last weeks can be tough.
There is something special about those last weeks though , i love how you never know when its going to happen. Any moment now your life could change forever.
Look forward to seeing pictures of your little princess soon
Good luck and enjoy your last few pregnant weeks...
Can't wait to see your little lady!
Will definitely be praying for you as I know these last few weeks are the toughest. Have you chosen a name yet?? =)
Can't wait to hear some baby news!!!
I've been thinking about you wondering how you were feeling!! Hang in there friend, and I will be saying prayers for you!
And if it helps at all, I thought in your last post you looked fabulous! You didn't even look 9 months. :)
Thinking of you, and praying for lots of sit down time in the A/C.
I will definitely say a prayer for you!!! Can't wait to see pictures of your little lady!! Good luck!
Hang in there!!! I can't wait to meet the little angel!
I hope she waits till your doctor comes back but you just never know. Its like when we had Kora I was told that we should have her on a weekend because during the week its busy where my husband works and she came to us on Saturday.. GO Figure..
Of course I will say a little prayer for you. And you have to know, I am so flipping excited and can't believe you're so close to your world turning upside-- I mean being blessed with a little girl ;-)
I am checking here daily-- even though it's mostly in lurking form because of time constraints with MY little bundle of girl.
Hang in there KAT-- something WONDERFUL is about to happen!!
Hoping the baby comes soon. Hope you feel better. :)
Almost there. The heartburn means a full head of hair though:)
It's a girl, and I guess a whole
new experience for you. Extra girl hormones.. :) We're praying for you over here and hoping you'll feel better soon!
Prayers - absolutely! All the best for a healthy last 2 weeks! (Or at least one week) : )
Oooh, you're almost there my friend. Hang in there, you'll be kissing that sweet baby girl, SO soon! Hugs and prayers...
Consider it done! I can't wait to read the post saying she has arrived.
Hmmm, I'll bet it's because it's a girl! Hang in there. I'll say a little prayer . . .
Saying some prayes for you!
praying for a safe and uneventful delivery for you and the little lady.
Sending you best wishes for a speedy labor and healthy delivery.
Take it easy, hon. Hoping for a smooth delivery for you!
i was just looking at pictures of me pregger (just posted one on my blog, actually) and thinking about how SWOLLEN I was all over.
prayers for you and your sweet girl...
Oh I'm so sorry to hear. The end of my pregnancy with my daughter was very similar. I swelled and was so uncomfortable during those final weeks. I hope the weather is at least cooler there for you, and perhaps the little lady will make an appearance soon!
Oh, this sounds a little too familiar. I haven't had much access to the Internet lately, but I've been checking up on you every time I've had the chance. I'm SOOOOO excited that you'll soon be holding your darling baby girl in your arms. Yes, I think you have plenty of pink, but can you ever really have enough for a first (and last) girl after 3 boys? Nah! :)
I'll be praying for you and keeping you in my prayers. I'm so happy for you!!!! I hope the next couples weeks get a little more bearable for you. The last weeks can be torture!
#1 - Glad you're doing alright. She'll be here before you know it! Soak it up indeed!
#2 - How thankful are you that this summer has been so cool? I was thinking the other day that this would be the best summer to be pregnant. Yay you!
Can't wait to hear the news!!!
