Oh heyyyy. #32weeks and counting. So ready to meet this girl! #babyc

Love how students try! They just aren’t sure what to say to a pregnant teacher…

‘Have a great summer and a great baby.’

Noted. Ok, ok, sometimes teaching 7th graders has its perks. This one put a smile on my face for most of the morning. Gotta love ‘em.

Thirty-one weeks today. Baby C seems to like hanging out in my ribcage/lung area these days. Needless to say, comfort is no longer an option. On a positive note, she responds to my pokes and my singing—my girl is actually interacting with me and it’s the most amazing thing. ever.

Just another drive in Switzerland. (at Col du Marchairuz)

wait, what?

I’m not daft. I watch my belly grow everyday and am well aware that I’m getting closer and closer to the due date. But it wasn’t until today—until a colleague made a comment about airline restrictions and pregnancy—that I realized how far along I really am.

I am, friends, on the ‘no-fly unless absolutely necessary and approved by a doctor in full medical certificate form’ list. When did that happen?

I’m hoping my doctor is feeling generous (and not overly-cautious) and grants me this certificate. London is calling for me next week and I’m getting on that plane one way or another, dammit.

16, 20, and 28 weeks.

Apparently little baby C is going to double in size in these last two months. I’m still confused as to where she’s going to go/how she’s going to fit. Being a petite prego is a bit worrisome, but I’ve reached the point where I completely understand the whole notion of ‘you’re body is no longer your own’.

Bring it on. I’m ready with my cocoa butter.

Almost at the 30 week mark. And can you believe people still don’t give up their seats on the train/bus for me? I’m left standing up for a 45-minute commute with 10 pounds of external weight and 12 pounds of internal. Chivalry is dead, my friends.

I made him push it around the apartment. He told me I couldn’t post this picture. Oops. I’m at work and all I can think about is going home to push the new stroller! Ahhhh! #babyc #itsbecomingreal

It’s time. Today is the day of the dreaded glucose screening test. In other news I’m in my THIRD TRIMESTER! #babyc
