36 weeks :)

One week to go and our little girl won't be pre-mature :) OK, it is still better is she stays in my belly a bit longer, but now I feel like I am getting real close to the end :) I am not sure if we're ready to become parents in 1-6 weeks, but I guess this is something you just can't prepare for. One important thing is still open... We still have no name!! It is so difficult to pick a name, the girl has to live with it her whole life! It was much easier at the beginning of the pregnancy, but now it has become so real.

Last weekend we had visitors which was nice :) We had a very nice evening sitting outside at our neighbours (the Waldheim hotel) with a beautiful view, and Saturday we went to Aesch for a nice relaxing day and BBQ :) Only I picked up some kind of virus and got myself a sinus infection. I am almost recovered now, but still not 100%. Hope to be back in health before our little girl decides to pop out! Not sure I can do the proper beathing with a stuffy nose and the coughing.... But I am sure she'll stay put for a while.... But hopefully not too long... Getting a bit tired of the acid reflux. the feeling like a walrus in bed and carrying around all that extra weight! But that's just normal end of pregnancy 'pains'... I have to say that I am happy that is all I can complain about. No complications so far :)

Baby update

Today I had an extra check-up because during the last ultra-sound the baby's bladder was overfull. The doctor was afraid that maybe she had a problem peeing, but today her bladder was empty :) So, yay!!! She can pee!!! She seems to be a tall baby, she has long upperlegs :)

Today I am at week 33 + 4 days, so still a minimum of 3 weeks + 3 days to go for a baby at term.... But I have just read that caucasian women pregnant of their first baby go (on average) 10 days over time.... However, the peak was at age 29, so, I hope she'll be on time... But I guess we will have to wait and see when she decides it is time to come out. It feels like she hasn't got much space in my belly, especially since she seems to be tall! My belly isn't that big.... And she is pushing her legs up against my ribs!! Ouch!!
