I'm nine months pregnant.
You can really see my moon-pie face in this one. I have either begin to swell due to pregnancy, or all that country ham I ate the other day. I can't believe I am putting these pictures on the world wide web.
Anyway, I am feeling as good as one can when they have an extra 28 pounds attached to their midsection. The baby "dropped" Christmas day, and I have felt much more comfortable since.
The whole "New Year, New You" line is taking on a entirely different meaning this year. My beloved convertible has been traded in for a more car seat friendly wagon. I love my new ride, but it was a bit of a shock at Target the other day- parked in the expectant mother spot (along with eating Frito's, it's a luxury I will soon be without), and threw a bag full of toiletries for the hospital and baby stuff in the back of my mommy mobile.
Good thing it is so pretty.
Had a great (last!) appointment at the high risk doctor Wednesday- the bean is growing great! Looking like this baby is just a late bloomer like its mama (there is a reason why pictures of my adolescence are not posted on this blog, friends), and will be a normal size when it makes its arrival.
After being hammered with pre-term labor warnings, I am not dilated yet at 36 weeks, which is wonderful. My procedure is tentatively planned for the 26th, but I'm sure that will change after one of my now weekly doctor's appointments. My bag is packed, so I am ready. Nursery is not quite there yet, but hopefully after this weekend. . .
Anyway, I am so excited to catch up with all of you! Fill me in on Christmas and New Years!
I don't know what you're talking about-- I think you look great and not puffy at all, honest!
ReplyDeleteAnd great new ride :)
Welcome BACK you've been missed. And in the interim, you look even more fabulous - so so happy you're feeling well and that the doctors have only good news for you.
ReplyDeleteYou look far too cute to be 9months pregnant!! Glad everything is going well. I have missed you!
ReplyDeleteThe new ride is hot!
You are so stinkin' cute it makes me crazy! I'm sure you feel puffy but you look fantastic. I'm insanely jealous at that outfit. It's adorable - maternity or not! Love your new mom ride and glad you survived a crazy December. Can't wait for more news on the little one!
ReplyDeleteYay! Welcome back! You look fantastic!
ReplyDeleteYou look great! I was just thinking you'd been quiet and had missed your updates!
ReplyDeleteSo glad Baby Sass is doing well!
Love your blog!! Happy to hear that baby is doing well. You look great!!
ReplyDeletei dont care what you say, i think you look gorgeous my friend!!! cannot believe it is getting so close...and for a mommy ride, that is one smoking wagon ;)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, you look fantastic! Seriously, it looks like you just have a basketball stuffed under your shirt. ;) Best of luck with everything coming your way in the next few weeks. I'm sure the Bean is excited to make his/her debut!
ReplyDeleteFirst off, you look great! Not puffy at all.
ReplyDeleteSecond, love your new ride. I wanted a wagon SO bad, but we live on the crazy hill and they all scraped trying to get into our driveway and garage. :( I ended up with a boring sedan...
Hope you can get in some last bit of pampering and quiet moments before your little joy makes their arrival!
You just look TOO CUTE FOR WORDS, Miss Samma! I'm so happy that the baby is healthy and things are going well, and so thrilled you're on track for a fabulous baby arrival! :)
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely pregnant! Can't wait to see you blogging about the baby soon :)
ReplyDeleteYou are one of those gorgeous pregnant ladies I aspire to be. I can't see the puffy face at all either! Your whip is too cute and the bean will be so safe in that car. So glad things are going well. I've been checking in on you to see if there was any news yet. Best wishes for smooth sailing!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, sorry... NOT PUFFY! You look fabulous! And I love those pants!
ReplyDeleteYou look great, I don't see the puffy at all! Can't wait to see the nursery and meet the little bundle!
ReplyDeletelove your new ride! how exciting ... you are almost there! you are an adorable pregnant person :)
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful! So happy that the baby is doing good and hanging in there.
ReplyDeleteYou are looking great! I love that jacket. Also, I am not married and not close to the kiddo stage but I want a station wagon as my next car. Yours is so cute!
ReplyDeleteSamma I've missed you so. Very glad to see you lookin so presh, and to hear that the baby is still baking. Sending you lots of love!
ReplyDeleteWe've missed you Ms. Sass! Glad that y'all are doing well! LOVE that coat you are wearing! Most pregnant women couldn't pull that off. Hang in there sister!
ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous! Seriously, 28 pounds is nothing compared to what I gained and I'm sure you can breath much easier since the baby dropped. I have the same baby mobile! Mine is a champagne color - it's a good car.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, I'm finally here! I've had this post bookmarked on my phone since you wrote it because I had to comment that YOU ARE THE CUTEST THING EVER! Seriously. Ever.
ReplyDeleteAnd love the new wheels! I have an embarrassing love for wagons and hatchbacks. Yours is adorable!
Just like you. CUTEST EVER.
Way too many exclamation points and caps for one comment.
Samma!! You look beautiful!! Pregnancy looks good on ya girly! I cannot wait for little bean to be here so soon. Where has the time gone?! Hope all is well, we miss you all and hope to see you all soon!
ReplyDeleteemail my new work to get back with me at leealumni@gmail.com :)
Well yay, you are getting so close. Keep us updated and wishing you lots of luck these next couple weeks. I can't wait to meet this baby!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, how cute are you! I hope I'm half as cute as you are when I'm pregnant, seriously!! I love the mommy car, it's cute! Glad to have you blogging again!
