Pregnancy Bliss...

Wow! Am I really only 9 weeks away from having my third baby? Time flies faster and faster the older we get or the more kids we have. This pregnancy has been great other than a few little glitches such as...

*My baby boy being due within days of Jeremy's Ironman that he has been training for
(Race Day on May 1, two options for induction dates April 28th or May 3rd
yes they are very close to the race and as of today if all goes well
I would really like to be there. We will see how everything falls into place.)
*My painful varicose veins that I am getting with this pregnancy, I am so sick of wearing medical tights every day (I am open to any words of encouragement, or advice or for someone to lie to me and tell me that they had them and they all went away :-)
*Sleepless nights (waking up at 3 or 4AM every morning and not being able to fall back asleep until around 6AM just in time to hear my alarm go off)

After all is said and done every pound, vein or imperfection we get while we are pregnant is worth it when you meet that sweet precious baby. I am so excited to see our little baby boy and to embrace our sweet angel. A newborn is gift from heaven and it is amazing to be able to feel their sweet little spirits. I can't wait to meet our new addition.

I can't believe you're getting so close! Sorry about the vericose veins - I'm sure they'll go away.....:)

Crappy V-Veins. I don't know much about them BUT I DO KNOW that there is surgery to remove them. My friend just had it done and it means more of the 'tights' after the treatment:( I swear, the 3rd pregnancy means so much. I feel that we're more in tune with our mother's intuition...we now have it down to a science so, that nurturing feeling for the new one is SO SO STRONG. Enjoy your short 9 weeks left...can't wait to be right behind you!

Dang! That is going by fast - but of course it's going to be fast for all of us NOT experiencing the woes of pregnancy. Good luck with all that! You're right! It's worth every ache, pain, vein, and even stretchmark :)
