36 Weeks- almost ready!

Picture at 35 weeks and 6 days. A week and a day until the baby is officially full-term. I am pretty okay with Baby Ellis being born anytime after 37 weeks... she's making life a little too uncomfortable.

If I feel good at work I feel like doing nothing at home and vice versa so I just can't win. I only get energy and comfort for a few hours a day. At least when Baby Ellis is born I won't be working. Thank God. Everything at work isn't complete set up for me to leave, but if I left any day now, I have confidence that the team can handle it... they get things thrown at them all day anyways... haha. Poor coworkers.

We took a tour of the maternity ward and met with our Pediatrician so we know what to do when I go into labor and how to get our baby checked out at least.

The baby room is pretty much ready!!! Everything is put together and clothes and diapers and are ready to be used. I am just a bit anxious about not having enough newborn clothes if she is a really small baby, but if she is born 8 lbs we will be good. Either way, we have enough support around here that someone (had one volunteer already) will run out and grab what we need. Thank God. I have a few more things I need to get on Saturday so as long as baby waits until after that I am good. If she doesn't wait, then oh well... I'll deal.

Overall, I am tired. I could fall asleep right now and it's just after 7 pm. I have had some more braxton hicks, but nothing that lasts too long... just uncomfortable.  I am trying to take care of myself by eating well (as I have tried for the last 9 months) and getting enough sleep so hopefully baby will be super healthy too!
