Preparing

Sometimes I feel that all I am doing lately is preparing. I am preparing for final projects in two of my classes at school. I am preparing for more clients and for a group therapy session on Boundaries at my internship. But most of all I am preparing both mentally and physically to have a baby in less than 3 months. I occasionally ask Barry if he realizes that in three months we will be parents! At times I feel totally unprepared and other times I am so excited I don't know how I will wait out the next few months. This past weekend my mom and I worked on a quilt that we are putting on the wall in the baby's room. We will hopefully finish that and get some valences made this next Thursday when my mom and Carol visit for the day. I am excited to get the baby room together and will post some pics of the quilt and valences when they are finished! I am pretty happy with the result and glad I didn't have to spend a ton of money on a set when most of it typically isn't used (can't use the bumper or comforter in the crib because of SIDS)

I had a dr appt last Thursday and it was pretty uneventful. Everything is progressing nicely and I passed my 3 hour gestational diabetes test so all is well with Baby Saeger!

Glad to hear your test went well! FYI...there is a "breathable bumper" available from BabiesRUs. It is kind of a mesh material and can easily be breathed through. I wasn't going to use any bumper for Leah either until she started to get her arms and legs caught through the crib slots. Makes for some interesting cries at 3am! I read lots of great things about the breathable bumper and have been glad to have it! Just something to think about. :)

That's a good thought Corrie, thanks! Don't want baby saeger losing any limbs in the night!!
