25 weeks

I can't believe I've made it this far! It seems like it could be possible to actually *have* a baby now. I really never thought I would make it this far. People keep asking me if I have all of my baby things and nursery together... and the answer is no. I don't have anything together! We don't really have a room for a nursery, and he'll be sleeping in our bedroom for at least the first few months anyway (then, of course, we'll have to figure out where he'll be sleeping after that, but that'll be in the future....lol). I have bought baby things before (from previous pregnancies) and it always ended in my own heartache (and bad memories from looking at the things I bought), so I learned a long time ago not to buy things in advance. I almost feel that, even now, it would be jumping the gun to buy things. I guess that's weird and I need to get over it.

Tonight I was noticing that he really likes to be pooched up on one side of my stomach. I guess that's the uterus he is in (the left one). It's very noticeable at times! I can't tell if that's where he's sleeping, or if that's where his back/butt are when he's just relaxing, or what, but it's rather humorous to look at my lopsided tummy.

Bonnie, this is so great! I'm so happy for you! I completely understand not having everything together yet. I wouldn't worry about it too much. Things will be ready when they need to be ready.

Lucy liked to stay on one side of my (admittedly single) uterus, too! When I looked down at my stomach, I could *definitely* tell that I was all lopsided. But no one else noticed. :-)

Thanks Jessie! I can really tell right now that I'm a bit lop sided and hope that no one else can...lol. I'm sure my uterus (the side he is in) is stretching and might even resemble a normal uterus, but I swear it's still lop sided - I wonder how that will all play out later on down the road? I have actually felt him on the right side on occasions, but he is definitely on the left side about 96% of the time. I would love to see if he is still breech or not.
