is it really almost time?

Is it really almost time to have this baby? Part of me "gets" that but the other part of me doesnt. I'm excited to meet her but sad that this time in our life (me being pregnant with her) is going to end, yes of course it will be exciting to open a new part of our lives together with her here, but you never get these precious moments back! you never get any of them back! time flies way too fast so i'm enjoying every kick, every ache and every elbow in my hip ;) its cute and i know i'll miss it like crazy when she isnt in here. I've also been planning and researching and looking forward to this homebirth for SO long i'm scared for it to be over, i'm excited still waiting for it with anticipation and excitement! its like waiting for graduation and then bam its over, and then planning a wedding and then bam its over, so i know its going to be BAM over soon but i'm enjoying the time just being patient and waiting for it.

I got a pedicure today and it was wonderful! I'll probably get one more before she gets here and then this coming friday I'm getting my hair done for the last time before she gets here so I'll be all set :)

Braxton Hicks contractions are increasing in frequency and intensity so thats good, i'm still trying to find a happy medium with my leg hurting so bad, some things make it hurt so bad and others not so much and other times it just has a mind of its own so whatever i'm just dealing with it and moving on. Acid Reflux has kicked in, it doesnt hurt it just "is" does that make sense i can just feel things hanging in my throat and taking longer to digest and i guess my digestive tract is just on slow mode which is normal at this point...just annoying. I've also noticed that my feet are feeling a little more "plump" i wouldnt say swollen just tight feeling so thats odd for me, so now i'm dealing with the tightness in my fingers/hands and my feet. Which is all new to me, I never got any of this with Carrson. I also can't really bend over if anything falls to the floor i HAVE to squat to get it, I dont have a choice getting in the car or bending over to get something i'm reminded quickly that i can't do it lol its just an odd feeling that makes me go, yikes can't do that any more, it doesnt hurt or anything just feels odd.

Midwives come to our house on Thursday! I'm excited!! I'll update more then!
