28w, 6d

Stayed up last night reading through my very detailed birth story from Katie. At the end, I thought "why was that a good idea?" This thought was repeated when I kept reading through the postpartum posts, one of which ended in "I can't imagine ever wanting to do this again." This did, however, get me into finally reading my HypnoBirthing book, which I've had for a week but haven't cracked until this morning.

My back is killing me today. Probably because I haven't done yoga since Katie has been sick, but wow, it really hurts! Everything from my neck down to my tailbone is aching terribly. It hurts just to stand up, but sitting isn't much better. I hope Katie gets better soon, I was so looking forward to going to the chiropractor's this week and now need to hold off. I just feel so tight and scrunched up!
It definitely doesn't help that I've been sleeping sitting up for two weeks, first so I could breathe through a cold and now because I have to help Katie. This sickness couldn't have come at a worse time - she did so perfectly with her bed, and now she needs to sleep with me. By the time the sickness is done, the bed will have lost it's newness and won't be as fun anymore to sleep in every night. I hope I can convince her to make the transition as easily again!

Some of Will's outfits arrived today. They're so snuggly and soft that they make me crave having a baby in them.

And this is why I shop at Zulily instead of normal stores!

 I think I paid $8 each with free shipping for these, and at Disney Baby, they're $28 a piece! 

Also, HOLY CRAP! Tomorrow I'm 29 weeks! I did NOT realize that until trying to figure it out for the title, and then I had to go double check with my ticker. I'm not ready for 29 weeks! That's a scary week! That means that I'm almost 30 weeks. No, I'm not finished with my check list that I wrote last week. No, I didn't actually start on it. I've been sick! This is exactly why I have my 30 week rule - I would hate for this to happen later in pregnancy. What if nothing was finished and we all got sick? But it's still stressing that I'm already up against my deadline. Hopefully I'll be able to hit the whole list this weekend when Katie is better and Bill is home. 

I'm trying to get all of my baby clothes washed in the meanwhile. It helps when I know that I missed the last big flea market filled with baby stuff and now this weekend I'll be missing the Baby Expo because Katie is  going to still be sick. But, now I have a bouncer, which was 75% of the reason why I wanted to go to them. Trying to squeeze all of baby's clothing into the drawers makes me realize that I don't need to go out of my way to shop anymore. I don't really need anything at this point. But I'm still a bit heartbroken that I'll be missing it.
