9 days til baby!!! in Life as a Mom of 2 boys.....and a girl!!

I’m doing soooooooo much better than last week!! Thank God! And I freaking love chiropractors lol. The lady I went to was recommended to me by an acquaintance of mine in town. She assessed me and said yeah, no problem she could fix my back. Apparently a couple of my vertebrae were out of alignment as well as one rib. So she did this huge electric massage thing on my back and then had me lie down and she jumped on me a few times in certain specific ways and that was that. She said I might be sore for a couple of days but then I’d feel a lot better and the crazy part was that I felt a ton better instantly! Then she adjusted me again on Friday (the first appointment was Wednesday) and I feel great now. To me that’s like a miracle! It’s pretty funny that she jumped on me though with her full body weight. I wasn’t really expecting that lol. I need to find a job where I get paid to jump on people lol.

So I’m 9 days away from having the baby now and my cold is like 92% gone as well. Finally! That only took 6 weeks. What a ridiculous sickness eh? So pregnancy-wise, the only things that are sucking are the fact that everything exhausts me and if I stand/walk too long I get a lot of pelvic pain. Oh and the never-ending peeing. Cody is constantly pulling my shirt up and saying my belly is SO BIG. He’s completely fascinated by it lol. The other day he said soon I’m not even going to fit in the house. Thanks son lol. I’ll just stand outside and wait for you guys when that happens haha. You have to remind kids of things a lot so I am doing the countdown with Cody until the baby is here. I still doubt he believes it since she’s been in there FOREVER. I’m seriously dying to see how the kids react to her. I think Cody will be super sweet and Miles will be like eh, whatever, where are my toys? And get that thing off your lap so I can sit on you Mom.

So yeah, I’m still dying for the baby to get here. I had a scheduled c section with Miles and an emergency one with Cody so I’m not even afraid of that part. I just want my little girl. And even though my boys ripped my nipples to shreds (lol sorry if that’s graphic) I can’t wait for the breastfeeding bond. I’m determined to do it better this time. As in latching perfectly. Of course, right? Like, the first two kids are practice kids and for this one I have to do everything perfect lol. As if. I’ll just be happy if she doesn’t spit up after every feeding like Miles did. That was pretty brutal. I’ll probably regret saying this later but I’ve been bored lately and the chaos of having a new baby around sounds like a blast lol.

My parents are here now and the kids are loving having them around. They want to go see them all the time but I’m trying to give them some space also cuz I know my boys can be exhausting. I left Miles with my mom for an hour one day when I saw the chiropractor and he was great apparently and had a lot of fun which surprised me since he is rarely babysat and the kid can SCREAM lol. Ugh....and now he’s up after napping less than an hour which is so not nice.

Is it the 13th yet? OMG you have no idea how much I want this baby out. Her movements are so big they’re painful these days. And I’m more than ready for some snuggly baby time!!
