30 Weeks

For some reason, now that I am at 30 weeks I all the sudden feel like I will have the baby any day now.... but in reality, I still have 10 more weeks (or so I hope!). I'm not sure why I feel this way, but I do.

I spent most of the last week fighting the a bug - stuffy, runny nose and horrid cough. I still have most it, but feel more like a human now. The cough has been the absolute worse part. If I talk too much or laugh, I have a coughing fit. It was so bad last week, that while on a call for work I got into a coughing fit mid-sentence and couldn't stop. I was in such a panic I couldn't find the mute button so I threw the phone on the couch and ended up throwing up on myself. Delicious, I know. Needless to say, I cancelled my calls for the rest of the day. But, this wasn't the only time it happened. For the next two days, if I got into a coughing fit, I knew what was coming next... even Brian witnessed this on Saturday night after making me laugh during the world's stupidest movie ever - Nights in Rodanthe. So much for trying to watch a romantic flick on Valentine's Day.


I've also started nesting. All I want to do is play in my nursery, organize my nursery, mess up my nursery and put my nursery back together again. Since that takes a whooping 10 minutes total, I do it a few times a day. The current thorn in my side is what nursery chair I should get. I want the big, cozy, plush kind the rocks and swivels. (Note: this such chair probably won't even fit in my nursery. Chances are it will be a chair for the guest bedroom - or as Brian calls is, "the baby crying room", where I imagine I'll be spending most of time - because there is actually room in there. Our nursery is tiny.) Back to the chair - I've had my eye on such chair at Pottery Barn Kids but I refuse to spend the astronomical prices they have set for such chair. So, off to Craigslist I went. And I found myself a perfect chair, just not in the color of my choice - but, it does match the guest bedroom! Problem solved, and money saved. I pick up it up tomorrow!



Now, I'm addicted to Criagslist! It has everything!



Last but not least, a video and a belly shot. I know this is a baby blog, but since we don't have our kid yet, here's a short clip of Spinner going crazy for a balloon.

And my 30 week belly shot. Not feeling so pretty today - so you ain't gonna see my face.
