Well guys, I am usually pretty to myself about personal things, but I have decided it's time to have a real moment here and talk about the good AND the not so fun parts of pregnancy. I have actually been home for the past while not being able to do much of anything. I will get out here and there and that's when I still get to do outfit posts, but as you can probably tell it has been a little slow lately.
It all started out with early contractions and some preterm labor. I have been dilated to a 1.5 and 80% effaced for a couple weeks now. This actually isn't that abnormal though, I could sit like this for a month before having the baby. I was then lucky enough to somehow get pneumonia last week. It literally made me feel like I had 100 pounds on my chest, and couldn't catch a breath. I was so exhausted and could barely do anything, so just to be safe they monitored me really close through the whole thing. I am slowly healing from it, and am grateful for the great care I had from my doctor and all my family and friends. I don't know what I would have done without them.
Now to get to the good stuff, the baby is looking good, big, and healthy! I've had some steroid shots to make sure that his lungs will be fully developed if he decides to come out early, which has made me feel a lot better. I am so extremely blessed to have a healthy baby inside of me and would go through anything to keep him healthy.
I am 35 1/2 weeks now and wow am I feeling uncomfortable and pregnant. I had Hanes when I was 37 weeks so who knows what's going to happen? I am going to make sure I am prepared by 37 weeks but I am not going to plan on having him yet.

Now even though I've had a few bumps in the road, I know it could be a million times worse and I'm grateful for the experience I have had this far. I look at some of the things women go through and I feel so fortunate and blessed. I hope you guys don't take any of what I have written in the wrong way, and think I am complaining or anything. I just wanted to give everyone a little bit of an update on the pregnancy because I'm grateful for everyone following along like you have! Love you all and appreciate your kind words more than you know!
