Weekly Thread August 1st  

post #1 of 2

Well, I don't see this week's thread yet so I guess I'll start one...

I'm 37w. This past week I've been getting lots of BH, of the painless 'tightening' type. Basically all day long and during the night too. Very different from my preg with ds. Also been having more frequent, looser stools. Baby definitely dropped some a couple days ago. She's not real low like some people look at the end, but then I'm short waisted so there's not far for her to go. All of this is making me hope she'll come soon. Of course 'soon' could be 3 weeks. Or 4 or 5 weeks. :

Still nesting... my freezer and my chest freezer are totally packed out. Though if I eat up some of this icecream, then I'd have more room... Monday, when I normally would have been napping except ds refused to nap, I suddenly felt like deep cleaning our bathroom. Which I did want to get done before our homebirth. It was really disgusting, for months whenever I had the energy to clean a bathroom I've cleaned the one in the hall since guests use it. So I washed walls and baseboards and wiped down the cupboard and windowsill as well as scrubbed the toilet inside and out and the sink. I wanted to get down and really scrub the floor, but our bathroom is so small there just isn't room for my huge self to do that. So I just swept and mopped it. Same for our tiny shower (the no room part, not the sweeping part) so dh says he'll do it. Though I better hang the cleaner and scrub brush in there as a little reminder.

I have all my birth supplies ready, just need to round up those towels and sheets and set them aside. I'm really trying to keep the house clean, the dishes done, and the laundry done so everything isn't a huge mess when I go into labor. I really feel like cleaning out my fridge, it's such a mess...

I'm having a pampered chef party tonight, what was I thinking? It's making me tired just to think of having all these people at my house and having to clean up afterwards. If that wasn't enough I agreed to bring a hot vegetable for 20 to a lunch thing today. : And Friday I'm taking ds to a local theme park for little ones. DH bought some tickets at the beginning of the summer and there's still one left which I need to use in the next two weeks.
