Kathy and Felix: Nine Months!

At nine months.

With that said, anxiety has officially set in. We’re still working on the baby’s room and my daily plans are being limited and given in to resting more. Within one week I gained four pounds. The doctor said that is normal and I may even gain up to 12 more pounds these final weeks… excuse me… where is that going to go? Forget waddling, you’re going to have to wheel me around.

Instead of being on the go as I normally am, I find myself up earlier than usual, taking care of domestic items, then taking a lengthy nap of two to three hours. I used to feel guilty but everyone keeps telling me this is the time to rest and get as much sleep as I can. I can see why, I can barely go an hour of “work” before getting tired. At least I have great company for those naps, our English bulldog, Chloe.

We are finalizing our birthing plan and taking note of any last minute items. Los Abuelos are so very excited and my mom is still on vacation in Puerto Rico and comes back a week before the due date… hope the baby can hold off until her arrival! She keeps telling me to make sure I don’t go into labor before she gets here… OK Mom, I’ll try my best.

xoxo, Kathy
