37 weeks

THREE WEEKS TO GO!
We can hardly believe it...it is going by so fast. Well, at this point I can say that I am getting rather uncomfortable so if he wanted to come in say, 2 weeks, I would be ok with that!

We had our breast feeeding class last night and Brian was surprisingly well-behaved given the subject matter. Aside from when we went around the class to introduce ourselves and explain what we wanted to get from the class and Brian said, "I'm here because I was told there would be breast related pictorials" Nice. The class was rather boring overall which wasn't helped by the fact it was 3 hours long and the chairs were extremely uncomfortable. The teacher was a nurse and lactation consultant in her 60s or 70s who was very passionate about breast feeding. It was a bit humorous when she demonstrated a feeding hold or a breast pump because she obviously positioned the prop at her breast which was around her mid section!

I am still resembling something out of National Geographic except now instead of a tribal woman, I am more like a cross between a camel (water retaining) and a whale (sheer size). I have to be careful getting in and out of bed at night (4 times minimum) because if I sit down too hard, I can bounce Brian right out onto the floor.

I am also a bit crabby lately which I think is hormone related. A gal in my pre-natal yoga class who is 3 weeks behind me admitted to the class last week that she is so crabby she sometimes wishes her husband wouldn't come home from work. Ha! I am definitely not that crabby. Brian coming home is the best part of our day (Pearl and me) since that is when we get our heads/bellies/feet rubbed!

Another doctor's appointment Monday!
