Maternity clothes:I started wearing my black athletic pants to school this week. Shhhh.... :) They look almost identical to my black dress pants.

Anything make you queasy or sick: I did feel nauseous at the beginning of the week. Not sure if it was the stomach bug or something else.
Miss anything: Nope.

Movement:Last week little man was active at night. This week, he seems to be very active during the day and more quiet at night. I'm trying to pay attention to see if he is on a certain schedule but it is hard to tell.
Best moment this week: Getting the adorable invitation in the mail for our Northern Baby Shower!! So cute! And... two of my best friends who live out of state called me up to tell me that they can come to the baby shower- so excited!
how cute are these?!?
Worst moment this week: Teaching....'nuff said.
How have I been feeling: On Monday I was having some pain in my stomach so I called up the doctor's. They told me to take a warm bath, drink lots of water and relax and if I still had pain to call them the next day. The next day I was having stronger, sharper pain that was coming on and off. I went to the doctor that day and they said thankfully I was not having contractions but that it was due to stress. [School has been extremely stressful lately and I feel like I am on edge for 8 hours a day]. Wednesday was pretty miserable as well. Thankfully, by Thursday I was feeling a little better but I got a call from the doctor that said my labs came back and my hemoglobin and potassium were low and they wanted me to come back in to re-draw some labs. They recommended that I take an iron supplement for the hemoglobin and were going to re-check my potassium. Still waiting to hear back. I am also t.i.r.e.d.
Other tidbits:
- I made a to-do list of everything I want to get done before the baby arrives and organized it by weeks. I am feeling a tad overwhelmed with everything that needs to get done.
- I feel the urge to 'nest' or organize stuff but I am way too tired to actually get up and do anything and with us also moving, it is kind of pointless.
- We picked out a color for the baby room. We did not purchase the paint but have the swatch all ready to go.
- I bought some stuff to make some artwork for the baby room. It has to do with his name so it will not be revealed until after he is born.
- My husband is starting to take over my body pillow in the middle of the night.
- We are officially moving out of our apartment by April 5th and we do not know where we are moving yet......
- I have been to the doctor's office three times since my last blog post.
- Did you know that dried apricots have potassium? I HATE bananas and so I have been snacking on these to get my potassium up.
Countdowns:
- Days until due date: 45!
- Days left of teaching:25
