It may seem a little funny for me (Tarzan) to be posting a blog post about how to lose weight and your belly after pregnancy, but bare with me here, I have a great reason! You see, shortly before Monkey was born, Jane and I discussed the idea about her documenting her post-pregnancy weight loss story.
We knew it would add a little unwanted pressure on her because she’d be be taking weekly photos and sharing how she is losing weight and belly fat after pregnancy. (And we all know the pressure we put on ourselves to lose weight sometimes is more than enough!)
After we discussed it for awhile, I told Jane to think about it and we’ll talk about it after Monkey is born and she can do whatever she wants. Well, the other day [click to continue…]
Today started off just like every other day. 39 weeks pregnant and still waiting… But then something strange happened that will (hopefully) make this day stand out as a little different from the others.
A couple of my girl friends were in town and they wanted to meet us for lunch. We settled on Cafe Express at noon. Tarzan didn’t really feel like getting dressed, but I persuaded him to go and am glad that he went.
Anyways…
Lunch was great! I enjoyed my huge greek salad with chicken and Tarzan [click to continue…]
You’d think we’d be crazy to go to an Aerosmith concert while Jane is 39 weeks pregnant, right? Well, maybe we are a little. But hey, we’re trying to squeeze in last minute things we can do before Baby Tarzan comes into this world.
Over the last week or so, we’ve gone to see Phantom of the Opera, Jane’s been to 2 movies, and then last night we went out to dinner and to the concert. We’re squeezing in as much as we can before the BIG day! Jane even mentioned she wanted to go bowling today! WHAT!? [click to continue…]
Pregnancy Weight: No change at 39 weeks pregnant! Again I just want to reiterate how freakin’ awesome the end of the third trimester is. In not one word of a lie, I have been eating dessert daily and the scale has not moved.
Who wouldn’t love this?!
And mark my word, I will continue on this path until this child is out of my ute. Because we all know, after he comes out I will be saying no to [click to continue…]
Back when I was newly pregnant, we got tickets for the Aerosmith concert. Sure, we calculated how many weeks pregnant I would be (39 weeks pregnant), but there were a few things that I just could not have known at that time.
Like how uncomfortable being 39 weeks pregnant is. Like how my little babe loves to press on my bladder and make me pee every 5 minutes. Like how slow I would move. Like how hot I would be in the middle of July in Houston.
38 weeks pregnant and counting… and waiting. Are signs of labor during my pregnancy starting?
It’s funny because I know that I’m 1cm dilated and 80% effaced and I keep getting my hopes up with every little sign. I’m also quite aware of the fact that dilation and effacement doesn’t necessarily mean a thing. It’s such a tease really.
I find myself looking for signs of labor approaching and then I think “Is this it?” and it never is. I need to remain calm and stop worrying. I really just don’t want to have to worry about being induced, but no sense in worrying about that now either.
Today one of my girl friends and I went out to lunch and then saw the movie, The Proposal (soo good, by the way). The last time I was at the movies was about 2-3 weeks ago. I paced myself with how much water I drank just so I didn’t have to go to the bathroom a lot.
My movie experience was a lot different today being 38 weeks pregnant. I drank so much water during lunch and hardly thought about the fact that we were [click to continue…]
Here’s a little video I created for Jane’s pregnancy week by week belly pictures we’ve collected for the past 38 weeks of pregnancy. I was going to hold off on doing anything with it until Baby Tarzan arrives, but I figured, why not? So, without further ado, for your viewing and listing pleasure, I present to you the…
Jane is 38 weeks pregnant. And yes… OK, OK, OK, so I got a little behind adding Jane’s pregnant belly pictures on our pregnancy week by week page. But the good news is that I added the pregnancy weeks 36, 37, and 38 pictures to the page linked above. Doing so made made me realize how CLOSE we are to the end of this journey. Sure, it’s hit me many times over the last few weeks – but lately, it’s been hitting me BIG TIME.
I just spent a few minutes looking at all of Jane’s pregnancy week by week pictures – minus week 22, darn it! And I couldn’t help remember when many of these photos were taken. As I mention [click to continue…]
I am a woman of my word, I’ll have you know. At 38 weeks pregnant, I kept the promise to my husband and we packed the hospital bag for labor and delivery. It wasn’t bad at all, but not that I thought it would be either. It’s just the final thing to check off of our “to do before baby comes” list.
Prior to packing the hospital bag we also installed the car seat this morning. Talk about weird.
