No Baby Yet

I just wanted to let everyone know that I haven't had my baby yet. I'm not really feeling anxious about being done either. I'm just waiting until this baby is ready to come on its own and I'm actually enjoying this last bit of pregnancy. I really like being pregnant and I know I'm going to miss it so I'm trying not to take it for granted. Here are some pictures from the last few weeks. I'll let you know as soon as the baby comes (well, as soon as I'm feeling up to it!) :O)


37 weeks



38 weeks



My beautiful henna tattoo. Once the henna peeled off it turned a light brown color (much lighter than this) and will stay on for 2-3 weeks. It's fun to feel like my belly is beautiful right now and this only cost me $20! It took about 15-20 minutes - she is an AMAZING artist. Let me know if you want her number...it's a fun way to celebrate your pregnancy. :O)



39 weeks and holding

OK, so you beat me! Your belly definitely wins the prize! Of course, this is #6 for you and only #3 for me. Give me a few more pregnancies and I'll be right there with ya. So are you getting as antsy as I am? I know it's much much harder once they come out, but at the same time, I would really like to sit down and not have my belly resting on my legs. Keep us all posted!

Holy pregnant belly, Batman! You look great!!! I love the tat. I am excited for you and wish you the best on this delivery...I'm sure it will just slip right out. You're a pro at this!

Janet - you look great. I just adore your belly! So glad you are able to enjoy the last moments of this sacred time. Can't wait to hear all about your birth!

You look great and look like you are happy. Such a wonderful positive attitude, most moms are feeling beyond ready to be done by now. Way to go.

Keep us up to date on your little ones arrival!

Hey Janet!!! Just found your blog...so happy...didn't know you were pregnant though...CONGRATS!

I have to say, wow! And I might add, how do you not have stretch marks? As far as I could tell it didn't look like it. I somehow manage to get a few more stretch marks each time, and because my babies seem to tuck right up into my ribs, I just get the small basketball belly. What is your secret??

Julie Kohler said...

Yeah right, a little bird told that's just a pillow in there! ;) I still love that answer, I'll have to use it next time someone asks! Hope you keep feeling great (as great as possible) and can't wait to see the new little Barton!
It would be funny if we could deprive work of 2 ECs at the same time- what do you think the chances are?

Janet said...

I'm not sure if you go early or not Julie, but I think the chances are pretty good that their time off will overlap at least!
