melted smoosh: September 2015
http://meltedsmoosh.blogspot.com/2015_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 29, 2015. 30 Before 30 - Part 1. I'm splitting this up into four parts so it doesn't become the Longest Post in the History of the World. in order of completion, here are the first seven on the list! 1) Go to Antney's - 5/9/2015. This ice cream place is a quarter mile from our house and we had never ventured to try it. i can't believe we waited so long! 2) Get a gel manicure - 5/9/2015. Amy and Blair and i had a lady date to VIP III Nails and Lounge. Probably because my expectations we...

melted smoosh: thirty-eight weeks!
http://meltedsmoosh.blogspot.com/2016/10/thirty-eight-weeks.html
Wednesday, October 26, 2016. We're measuring at 40 weeks again this week! Baby thankfully remains head down, and she was right occiput transverse at my appointment yesterday (meaning the back of her head is facing my right side and her arms and legs are pointing towards my left. this position is more favourable for her to turn into the optimal occiput anterior position (back of her head facing out), as opposed to Greta who was occiput posterior (also known as sunny-side-up).

melted smoosh: forty weeks!
http://meltedsmoosh.blogspot.com/2016/11/forty-weeks.html
Tuesday, November 8, 2016. Little peanut seems pretty happy to just hang out! Today is Election Day, and with all the craziness between Trump and Hillary, i'm not surprised she doesn't want to come out just yet. she has dropped down a little bit (i measured 39 cm at my appointment last week, after two weeks in a row of measuring at 40 cm) but not fully engaged. meanwhile, i'm running out of wardrobe options that are up to the task of covering this belly!

melted smoosh: thirty-nine weeks!
http://meltedsmoosh.blogspot.com/2016/11/thirty-nine-weeks.html
Tuesday, November 1, 2016. Maybe the teensiest bit lower, although it doesn't appear that way from the angle of this picture! And definitely still growing. every few days i have to retire another piece of maternity clothing that isn't comfortable anymore, or just plain doesn't do the job! Is officially full term!

melted smoosh: August 2016
http://meltedsmoosh.blogspot.com/2016_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 31, 2016. Twenty-nine and thirty weeks! Curious to see how my belly will measure at my appointment tomorrow, since i was already measuring 30 weeks at my 28 week visit! My belly is still growing, but i haven't noticed the same major growth spurt that i had between weeks 26-28. baby is dancing and jiving, which makes for some entertaining undulations. Image credit from W. Hat to Expect When You're Expecting. A little short of breath when i first lie down or when i'm climbing stairs. ...

melted smoosh: April 2016
http://meltedsmoosh.blogspot.com/2016_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 24, 2016. There's a more definite fullness to my lower abdomen now. still squeezing into all my regular pants, but i'm most comfortable in dresses and stretchy jeans! Is two inches long, the size of a lime, which sounds crazy big to me! The fingernails and toenails are starting to form. at this point, baby's head is just as big as the entire remainder of the body. and that heart is pumping fast and furiously! Image credit from What to Expect When You're Expecting. Still no vomiting; a littl...

melted smoosh: one month
http://meltedsmoosh.blogspot.com/2016/12/one-month.html
Monday, December 12, 2016. How can it already have been a month since you were born? You make the sweetest little humming noises when you eat, and occasionally you coo and trill at the stuffed animals on your bouncer. we love to hear your little voice! You especially like to look at the towel rack in the bathroom when you're getting your diaper changed . silly girl! We love you so much, and we're so happy to have you as part of our family. your big sister especially loves to help us take care of you&...

melted smoosh: thirty-seven weeks!
http://meltedsmoosh.blogspot.com/2016/10/thirty-seven-weeks.html
Tuesday, October 18, 2016. I measured 40 weeks at my appointment this morning . which the midwife assured me is due to the fact that baby girl is still sitting up so high, not that i'm gestating a giant! Regardless, the belly is still growing, and i'm starting to bump into things more often (and i keep stumbling over random toys or shoes on the floor because i don't see them by my feet, which is embarrassing. thankfully i'm always able to recover my balance, though not always my dignity! I hate the thoug...
