These last few weeks, I have had to hold the fort down while Andre has been away training for the draft. I see so many stereotypical photos of pregnant women eating ice cream while watching their husbands put cribs and strollers together. I’ve read everything you could possibly think of about what pregnant women can and can’t do; we can’t lift this, we can’t do that. Well honestly, that’s DUMB, and if I don’t take it on myself to get things done, it simply won’t get done. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not lifting anything with my back, I use my lower body muscles ALOT, I take breaks, plenty of snack breaks lol, and I take my time. I would absolutely love to have Andre here helping me and watching him put things together, but that’s not possible right now. I’ve had so much fun challenging myself and putting all of my little one’s gear together. I’ve also been able to bond with my mom and get all the organization/nesting done. I’m currently 37 weeks and my mom strength is definitely keeping me going.
So with that said, HAPPY MARCH 1st! It’s Officially my Baby Boy’s Birth Month!!!
