Honeydew Melon week 34


This week Baby " T "  you are the size of a honeydew melon and are suppose to be around 5 1/2 lbs! However, after my doctor appointment today we are pretty sure you are not that big, in fact the Doc said he is going to hope you're a 6 lb baby come delivery time. 
These lasts weeks of pregnancy have my emotions all over the map again. Sometimes I want to see you right now to hold, squish, and kiss. Then I feel like I will never have enough time to prepare for you and you will be here without a finished baby room, name, or nicely folded onesies all in a row in the closet.
Some days I am delighted at my growing belly and then tearful at my lost waistline the next day! I am thrilled with the idea of motherhood but then worried about being tied down to your tiny helplessness the next minute. Needless to say the closer it gets to you being here (6 weeks) the more I feel like I am riding an emotional roller coaster!

Aside from all my worries I do know that I love you and can't wait to marvel at your face and count your fingers and toes. For now all I have is the sound of your cute little heart beating 150 bpm.

Thank you for sharing the beautiful little sound. What a good idea to film that moment! And, your belly looks nice and round and honewydewish at that angle . . . so maybe you'll have chub chub like Desmond after all....
