39 weeks today

4891 days ago by Robyn Wilkinson

holy moses. it’s actually getting closer. the scoop from baby center is that the baby is ready to greet the world and is just building fat at this point to control body temperature once s/he arrives. i’m off to the doctor tomorrow, so we’ll see if i’m still at 2cm or not. i’m feeling rather anxious about the birth, but also excited to experience all of it. it’s surreal, how much we don’t know what we’re getting ourselves into!! i’ve attached a pix from this weekend’s wedding – 39 weeks and counting.
all my love to you guys – and extra love and hugs to you, kma. please give your mom and dad our best. xx

we're slipping

4943 days ago by Robyn Wilkinson

okay ladies. it’s almost been a month. dear me. we’re pathetic at this. i say more pictures, more updates and more stories. even if they’re not of anything big or exciting or earth-shattering.
my latest is my groin. exciting, huh? it’s pulled. and i’m trying to get it all better so i can get outside and walk again, although the SF rain isn’t letting us do much outside these days.
aside from that, all is well in our world. i’m officially 8 months on tuesday and it’s crazy how little time we’ve got. we just went to a birth class last weekend and it had me running for the hills. gulp. lots to handle, and lots to fear, but i’ve been told it’s all worth it. :)
love and miss you guys! xx

nesting?

4962 days ago by Robyn Wilkinson

you 3 can attest to my occassional over-organizational ways, but i think i’ve hit an all time low. yesterday i wanted to sort and re-arrange steve’s t-shirt drawers. he had to pry me away with food and more LOST episodes. what the hell is my problem? i’ve heard it’s a symptom, but i think i’ve officially hit rock bottom in the nesting category.

and, you’d think i’d be doing useful organizational stuff, like for the baby room, but we haven’t touched it. partly because mom and dad are coming this weekend and will most likely be our last temporary guests in that room, partly because i don’t want to start spending money. but be prepared – you all will be consulted when decisions like what color diaper genie or breast pump come up.

the naming is coming along, but we’ve got a long way to go. it’s basically just a list of names i don’t despise right now, so it’s big and needs to be cut down. i think we’re just in denial. schmoo might stick for awhile. :) any ideas, throw them in the pot. we’re taking any and all suggestions and will justly reward the winners.

i’m still trying to knock this cold, hopefully the temperatures are warming up for good. kma, i love that you saw train! totally makes me smile. and although i haven’t seen the evidence, it does seem that kelly is back in action even though she’s got a cocooning butterfly in her eardrum. brookie – wherefor art thou?

miss and love you,
xx

rain rain go away

4984 days ago by Robyn Wilkinson

so i finally figured it out, and have posted pix for you. 25+ weeks and counting – getting pretty large marge if you ask me! and you can see pix of brooke & hunter’s place – the snowy pond and then the front of their house. it’s all so beautiful up there.
i’m off to cuddle up on the couch and watch the hollywood glitz. why i continue to watch the oscars each year is beyond me.
can’t wait for g&t’s this labor day – if not sooner. much love from rainy sf.

4988 days ago by Robyn Wilkinson

just checked the site after a lazy absence, and what do i find but kma’s great news! congrats!!! i’m so proud of you and brookie. the salt & pepper shakers have spoken. and i’ve got high hopes – good things are bound to happen without us answering to others.
all is well here – can’t seem to get any of my pix (vermont and belly) online, so i’ll work on that and will post soon. and brookie, got the save the date today. labor day is going to rock! miss and love you guys, xx

vermont happiness

4997 days ago by Robyn Wilkinson

well, i’m here to report that all is well and wonderful up in vermont. brooke and hunter’s place is amazing. so gorgeous and peaceful and cozy. we spent lots of time in front of the wood stove, playing cards and eating good food. it was a great trip for sure, and pix are attached of their amazing spot.
more belly pix to come – it’s certainly out there for sure. tomorrow i’m officially 6 months and counting. time is flying!
love and miss you all, xx

holy kicker

5018 days ago by Robyn Wilkinson

well, whatever sex this baby is, s/he will be a field goal punter i’m betting. lots of movement in the last week for sure, and enough today to really startle me for sure!! it’s cool, though, and comforting in a good way.

just because i haven’t sent updates in a bit:

you and the baby have really been growing! by now, you have probably put on 12 pounds plus or minus a few. while much development remains, the rapid growth rate of the baby is going to slow down just a little near this time. to aid in muscle development, the amniotic fluid is supporting the baby’s movements. your baby is quite the little gymnast and is getting busy with twists, turns and forward summersaults!

other changes that are happening:

  • the baby’s eyebrows are now forming.
  • your baby is sleeping and waking much like a newborn at this time.
  • permanent hair is now growing on the scalp, but even this hair will fall out the second week after birth and will be replaced by thicker hair.

baby’s size this week: about 5.3 to 6 1/2 inches (head to rump).
weight: approximately 9 ounces

they’ve likened it to a banana. :)

miss and love you,
xx
