5.days

So, I have 5 days to go.  Here are 5 facts from my pregnancy:


  1. cravings: plain Cheerios, Honey Nut Cheerios, Life cereal, grapefruit, pineapple, watermelon, Twix, cookies (not sure how this is different than any other time), milkshakes
  2. avoided (at one time or another during this pregnancy):  Mexican food, green vegetables, anything spicy
  3. weight gained: 28 lbs.  I was up to 35 lbs. with the water retention, but I dropped back down.
  4. best to worst pregnancy rankings: Amelia (no problems), Meredith (2 weeks with bronchitis at 8 months), Claire (hives at 7 months...horrid), Baby #4 (was a breeze until February).  You'd think I might have been scared off by pregnancy, but none of them seemed so bad after the fact...and I figured that the odds of each of them happening again were kind of like lightning striking twice.  I guess I was kind of right. :)
  5. best part of this pregnancy:  sharing it with the girls.  They couldn't be more excited about this baby...and honestly, we couldn't either!
