Truckin' Along...

34 weeks

It's been a couple of weeks and so much has happened. As you can see, I keep getting bigger and bigger and apparently it's not all in my belly but my feet too! I had to go this weekend to buy some new shoes (darn) because none of my old ones fit- not even the flip flops!

Also, I have had some issues with swelling in my ankles and feet and have been ordered by (midwife) Mary to rest during the day and immediately when I get home at the end of the day. So, with all my spare time during school I take a quick 15 minute break during lunch and rest on the cot in the nurse's office :) I also have started taking chlorophyll (yes, the green stuff in plants) to help detoxify my blood. Something is definately working, because my swelling has gone down significantly.

We finished our birthing class last week and of all things, Mark was a little sad to see it end. He made some friends from the class and they have been swapping recipes and cookbooks with each other- like good husbands should!

This week we get to meet Mary's assistant, Cammie, and then we begin our weekly visits! (midwife) Mary will come to our house in 2 weeks, just to get an idea of where we live and what our house is like. It was very exciting to schedule all of our last appointments- we can now see the light at the end of the tunnel!!
