Wall and bed, the paper is where we will have train decals. I just ordered them from Potter Barn kids, they are very cute!

7 months and counting...

7 month belly-WOW! It has grown.

Well I am now in my seventh month, which means I am in the third trimester. This is exciting but a little scary. It is exciting because we only have about 11 weeks left and our little one will be here. A little scary because in 11 weeks I will have to push this big baby out of me. I try not to think too much about how scared I really am. Hopefully I will have a great epidural that will take away all the pain.

This month a lot of things have started to happen.
Calvin's movements are no longer just little kicks here and there but more like punches. His movement times have become more predictable, I can usually depend on him to start moving at 3 am, 9am, 11 am, 3pm, 7pm, and 11pm. He is quite a busy little boy. I wonder if this is a predictor of how he will be outside the womb. Scott and I have such a great time just sitting watching my belly jump, jiggle, and wave. It is quite freaks and I always am wondering what part of him is making the movement.
Calvin also has been getting the hiccups quite often, so I am constantly feeling like I having a muscle spasm in my lower abdomen.

Scott and I started our childbirth classes. Of course the first night we go, we have to watch a movie on the stages of labor. Let me just say I was a little grossed out by the "good looking" ladies giving birth,especially since we got to see all their special areas. But I guess the point of the show was to see what to expect during labor, not to see pretty ladies "vajayjays". The best part of the class was the last 30 minutes of it,when we did relaxation and breathing techniques, I got to lay down and relax and Scott got to massage me. I found out that he is a little nervous about the labor part of the pregnancy because he doesn't want to do or say anything to make me yell at him. But from what I hear, the husband doesn't have to do anything wrong for this to happen, it just happens. Again, hopefully the epidural will help in this area too.

I have been going to Dr. Tovar for the last five weeks to help with my hip problems and let me tell you, she is a miracle worker! I have no pain and am feeling awesome! If you ever have any type of back pain and need a good chiropractor The Total Body Center is the place to go to.
