This whole pregnancy I have believed the baby to be a boy... I've had a total of 6 dreams now where we have a son. In these dreams the baby is absolutely beautiful and makes me so happy. Becoming a parent is one of the best parts of living. I've learned so much about myself, Jacob, labor & delivery, love & support, and leading a consistent healthy lifestyle. When you're ready, I highly suggest it.
Another side of bliss is stress... last week I was stressed for a few days because the baby wasn't moving as frequently or erratic as before. It brought up a lot of fear and anxiety, which made for restless nights. This, of course, has now changed and the baby is moving harder and more baby-ish.
My hips have started giving me pain, another reason for rest(sleep)less nights. My body is releasing hormones that helps relax and soften my joints and muscles. This is happening to help prepare my body for labor & delivery. I flip and toss and moan for most of the night, but at least my body is doing what it's supposed to be doing.
78 days to go...
