  • Meet Liv. ⠀ ⠀ This sweet girl arrived yesterday and as I sat today with all 3 girls around me there was this sense of “yeah, this feels right.”⠀ ⠀ Excited to share more about her birth and how we are doing later but for now.... snuggles. ⠀
  • And this my friends is what I would refer to as a violation of my boundaries. 😂🤣🤦‍♀️⠀ ⠀ Her exact words right before she french kissed my belly and talked to my baby were "It's ok, I want to be a midwife someday."⠀ ⠀ Fortunately, I really like this girl so I'm going to let this one slide. 😘 ⠀ Also...Still pregnant #overdue #awkwardpregnancyphotos #40weekspregnant
  • 1 day past my due date.... Still smiling. ⠀ Ok I'm actually complaining and eye rolling a lot and finding very dramatic gif's to use in response to my friends who are checking in on me via text. But honestly, would you expect anything less from me? 😂⠀ ⠀ Due dates are stupid and patience isn't a virtue I was blessed with but I am in fact hanging in here. 💆🏼‍♀️ ⠀ Piper (my first) was 10 days late. ⠀ Lu (soon to be middle) was 4 days late. ⠀ ⠀ Any guesses on when this one comes? ⠀ Oh and just in case you'd like to suggest to me that I have sex with my husband to bring on labor you should know that I will cut you. 😘 #overdue #crazypregnantlady #40weekspregnant
  • Nothing will test your patience like the 39th week of pregnancy. ⠀ Will I have the baby today? No⠀ How about today? Nope ⠀ Tomorrow? Probably not. ⠀ 😂😂😂⠀ ⠀ I decided to pass a little time today by dragging myself out to the garage for a mini workout which was EXACTLY what my anxious little brain needed. ⠀ ⠀ Nothing too crazy and I definitely had to pause for some contractions a number of times so that was fun. ⠀ ⠀ Flag this one which you could totally do pregnant or not. ⠀ ⠀ 6 Min AMRAP ⠀ 30 Sec Assault Bike⠀ 15 Air Squats ⠀ ⠀ Rest 1 Min: ⠀ ⠀ 6 Min AMRAP ⠀ 30 Sec Kettlebell Swings ⠀ 12 KB Deadlifts ⠀ ⠀ Rest 1 Minute: ⠀ ⠀ 30 Sec Mini Band Lateral Steps ⠀ 12 Ring/Inverted/Bent Over Rows⠀ ⠀ Fingers crossed this baby comes soon. I'm pretty sure if I have to ride that assault bike pregnant one more time I literally might die.
  • Birth Musings....⠀ ⠀ Less than one week out from my due date you might think the things running through my head would be positive self talk and mantras for birth, but you'd be wrong. ⠀ ⠀ I can't stop thinking about how weird it is to bring a new baby home. ⠀ ⠀ Seriously, in a matter of days there is going to be a complete stranger that's like "Hey, I live here now and I completely depend on you for my entire survival. Oh by the way, my emotional development and me not turning out as a prison gang leader or stripper depend on you too." ⠀ ⠀ I mean it seems unlikely that I'd let a stranger come in for dinner uninvited let alone live with me for 18 years. ⠀ ⠀ And then there is the whole hospital thing. My bag is packed and it just sits there, waiting for me to go into labor.⠀ ⠀ It's like of like one of these days I'm just going to go on a trip, call my mother in law at the last minute and hope she'll watch my kids at the drop of a hat. Which leads me to wonder.... maybe I should try that for real one of these days? "Grandma! I'm headed to Mexico, can you stay with the kids?" ⠀ ⠀ Could that actually work? ⠀ ⠀ Anyway, pregnancy brain is weird and oddly creative. Please tell me I'm not the only one who spent their last few days of knocked up bliss pondering some crazy ass thoughts. ⠀ ⠀ #39weekspregnant #pregnancybrain #momlife
