Tifany~ Boy, that brings back memories! We took our dd to WDW for the first time on her 1st b-day and she had such a great time. The characters loved her too and Tigger was the one that doted on her the most. She loved it! I have several similar pictures, including a couple of bath shots. I am hoping to take our ds there when he's about 11 months old and dd is 4. Great pictures, btw!
Freyja~ I hope you have a little baby nestled in your arms right now!!
Bethy Lou~ Does it feel like actual cramps or does it feel more like stretching? If you are cramping, is it painful? It could be contractions or it could be Braxton Hicks (fake contractions) if you are cramping. You might need to call your dr. if you suspect actual contractions or if you are having painful cramping. However, it is still possible to have stretching.
I actually have something called Symphysis Pubic Dysfunction (SPD) this time and it is horrible! I mean absolutely painful and horrible! I did not have it with my dd so this is a new one for me. Basically it hurts to do simple things like getting dressed, rolling over, and even sitting too long or walking much. It feels like someone has one leg and is pulling in one direction and someone else is pulling my other leg in the opposite direction. Horrible! The pain radiates in my pelvic, pubic, hip, and back areas. It's a nightmare but I only have 5 weeks till my c-section so I will just have to get through it the best I can I guess. Here is a link on it. You can also do a search on google and find more info. Hopefully you won't experience that though but that is another thing that it could be if you have similar symptoms. Unfortunately, there isn't much relief for it though!

As for me, I graduated from college Friday night and am so glad to be done with school for now! I am probably going for another degree soon but it feels great to have a break! Graduation was kind of hard due to the SPD I mentioned above and I was in so much pain when it was over but it was so worth it anyway!
Now I can focus on this baby since I haven't had much time to do so a lot previously. I realized that my c-section is 5 weeks from tomorrow and I am so unprepared and he is measuring ahead so there is that possibility of him coming sooner too. I am starting to feel overwhelmed by all that I still need to do. I am hoping we can get a lot done this week but it's slow going with the pain I currently have. Dh is a huge help though thankfully. My baby shower is Saturday too so hopefully that will help with some of the stuff we still need.
Hope all of you are feeling well and doing well!
Congratulations lilianddomsmom!
