THREE THINGS!!! and then finn's nursery will be fully prepared for his arrival!! i've been nesting my lil' heart out. so much fun! so today i will find a mobile for the crib, a changing pad for his changing table, some spare crib sheets...and i will probably pick up diapers and wipes, too! always need more of those around!! ♥ i have a sense of peace and calm. everything is ready for his arrival. ♥





i feel so...prepared.

the only things missing from my house are ryan and milo.
ryan will be here in 37 days.
milo will visit sooner than that. ♥

wearing my amber necklace again the past few days has done remarkable things to calm me.
i have a sense of peace, calm, and well-being. (i stopped wearing it when ryan bought me the tiffany's necklace for mother's day. but he told me he misses seeing me with the pretty amber necklace from him. it has so much more character. just like me. hah.)

i was in the hospital tonight for my weekly progesterone shot.
the doctor convinced me to stay to be hooked up to some monitors to watch the baby. and to watch my contractions. she ran some tests as well.
it turns out that i have yet ANOTHER bacterial infection. apparently, having one of these fuckers during pregnancy opens the door of susceptibility WIDE OPEN for more infections to return. or to quote my doctor, "it's a natural bacteria normally in the vagina. however the PH of pregnancy throws off the PH balance and the bacteria can overgrow and throw a rave party in the vagina." LMAO.

the doctor thinks this infection is causing/contributing to my contractions. so i'm back on anti-biotics. oh joy.

and the GOOD NEWS???
on sunday i will be 36 weeks pregnant!!
that means that finn and i made it to our goal date!! ♥
he is officially allowed to be born as a full term baby after that point!

hooray!!!

i'm excited. nervous. and happy to have made it to term.
