Baby Week 24 - The start of the end…
September 25, 2008
I think I’ve peaked in the comfortable portion of this pregnancy, and I’m on the downward slide towards birth. The last few days my back and all of the muscles in my lower body have started to ache. My stomach is starting to grow more and the baby is apparently putting on about 6oz a week, and I’m really starting to feel it. This worries me since I’ve still got 3 months and a few days to go. If I’m already starting to feel worn, this is not a good sign. I was hoping the energy and comfort level would last a little longer… On the other hand, I can’t wait to meet the new guy! Who will he look like? Will he remind us of Xander as a baby? Will he have a full head of hair? What color will his eyes be? How will Xander react to the new one? I guess I’ll have to keep trying to remember that the payoff is definitely worth all of this pain and discomfort, but I know as the months drag on this is going to be harder and harder to do…
