He's Almost Here!!!




























Well, let's hope he's almost here! I have 5 days to go, and at the most 15 days...eeek! Everyone pray he comes on time tho because Sai has a training in the UK March 7-11 and I just can't do this whole birthing thing on my own!!! But he will talk to his boss this Friday to let him know the situation. The military supposively understands so I'm hoping there's not problem, but still...this baby needs to come so I don't have to stress about it!!!

Not much new...

Well, I had another appointment and they said that I'm measuring "spot on"! So I guess that's good...until they told me that the baby is weighing in at 7lb12oz...eeek!!! And that was as of Thursday, so I don't want to think about how big he is going to be. I also have not dialated AT ALL...so I'm thinking he's not coming any time early. Oh well.

37 Weeks, 2 Days...19 days left!!!





Baby Nox is coming...to town! Well, he's not coming right NOW!!! But he is on his way. I had my midwife appointment yesterday, which doesn't really mean much except that my blood pressure is good, the baby's heart beat is strong and I'm the right size for my time. I'm down to 19 days left and I'm still just hoping he doesn't decide to come late! We have the birthing class all day on Friday and I think I'm ready any time after that! =) So here are some updated pictures...I'm not sure if there's that much of a change...but here they are nonetheless. We also had the crib delivered on Monday...so that's the last big thing that we needed!

Date Night!












Well, I'm sure you can tell from the pictures that there's not really many places to go out to out here! We went bowling again with some friends and played some pool and then we went out to Pizza Hut!!! Yuuum, yuuuuum!!! I have been waiting so long to go there, but now that I know how expensive it is...I'm good for a while. A looooong while!!! And it didn't help having me think I can eat more then I really can. I was already good after I ate one of the quesadillas we ordered as the appetizer! lol! That's so sad!

Tick, tick, toc...



Well...I had another doctor's appointment today and it went well. My blood pressure is good, I didn't get sick this time when I had to lay there for 25 minutes while they monitored the baby's heart beat and the doctor said the baby's size is less then average! She said it measured smaller then it did a week and a half ago...go figure. There's the wonderful high tech machines they have!!! haha! So unreliable! She said the baby's weight is 5lbs 9oz. So with 3 weeks and 4 days to go, let's hope he doesn't gain more then the 1/2lbs a week! I think I can handle a 7lbs baby! =) I also had a tour of the hospital yesterday and it was pretty uneventful. The labor room has a really weird shaped bed. It has a rectangle shape where your head goes (or above), the middle part of the bed is a big circle and then there's another big wide rectangle where your legs go. It also had a rope with 2 knots hanging from the ceiling...hmmm...? The bed thing doesn't look to comfy, so let's hope I'm not in there long!!! After, you're put in a room where most likely I will be sharing (blah) with someone else if the maternity ward is full! Grr...but if Sai wants to stay the night I can get a private room if we pay $50/night. So we'll see about that. The Germans have to stay in the hospital for a minimum of 3 days as health care requires, but British military patients can leave when they feel like it since the midwife will visit the house every day for 10-14 days after the birth. Well..just 25 days to go till my due date!!! =0)

Baby Ticker

Well, well...can you believe I only have 33 days left!!! And today is basically over for me so really, it's like 32 days! lol! I've been feeling a little faint/weak a couple hours during the day so I had them check my iron level which is 11.7 and good! Today I had a glucose test (which I thought they were supposed to take around 28 weeks and didn't) so I should be getting the results next week if I have diabetes. Just wanna be safe then sorry. I have changed my diet around a bit so hopefully that will help as well. We shall see soon enough!

Oh...and I'm realizing my blog is totally lame compared to Amy's and Kim's, especially with all of their updates and pictures! I'm going to find something else I can blog about so I can add more pics on here! lol!

Baby Bummer

So I went to the doctor's today and she said that the baby's belly is a bit bigger then it should be at this time. Which basically means that baby might be a bigger baby! Oh nooo!!!! The doctor couldn't find the leg bone to measure and get an exact weight so let's just hope he's not going to be THAT much bigger! Oh, please no!

My Baby Bump...






Hello all!!! Well, while Sai is away I decided to take some snap pics of the baby bump. I'm 2 days into my 34th week. That means...only 6 weeks left! And I can't even believe Amy was giving birth at this point in her pregnancy!!! I'm sooo not ready! haha. Hopefully we can get some family pics done when Sai comes home in a week...=)

Bowling!!!





Well, after how many months of asking...we FINALLY went bowling!!! haha! It's sad how big of a deal the small things are out here. Especially since there's not really that much to do in such a small town. Well, there probably is, but we just don't know because of the language barrier! haha! Well, Sai nearly got a strike after doing the "under the legs" move...lol! Anyway, the most important thing is that I beat him! haha! I also have a pic posted of our little baby bump!!! That's at the 1st day of my 33rd week. Uwee...I hope he doesn't get too much bigger!!! lol!

Holiday Season






Ok...this is my 1st post! Hopefully it gets better from here!!! Send me some suggestions cuz I need them! And if anyone knows how to post a slideshow, hook me up with the info!

Well, well...my first Christmas in Germany!!! And boy was it a white Christmas season!!! Although on the actual Christmas day, it was surprising sunny AAALLLL day long! What a treat! We've had some good times thus far, attending a couple of Sai's work parties and spending a nice quiet Christmas day at home where we enjoyed our Cream Egg on Toast in the morning and a nice ham and mashed potato dinner in the afternoon....yummy! It was also my birthday a couple weeks before Christmas and Sai thru a few surprises for me! Baby is growing quite well and moving like crazy these days. Sai has even put on some sypathy weight I think...what do you think??? haha!
