35 weeks 0 days
I will have to keep this brief as my hands are painful and swollen. Don't worry, I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow where hopefully they will be able to help me (and confirm it isn't due to blood pressure problems).
Today is a neat milestone. I'm 35 weeks along and have exactly 35 days until my due date. From here on out, I will have less days to go than how many weeks along I am. It really puts into perspective that he could come anytime, although we're sorta more hoping for a late baby than an early baby.
Also, I've officially gotten in my cloth diapers I ordered. I've got 2 dozen newborn prefolds, 10 or so small prefolds, 6 newborn covers, and 1 one size flip cover. I have to buy more flip covers eventually, but seeing as how he won't fit in them until he's a month or so old, I'm not in a big hurry. When my hands are feeling better, I will need to prep them, a process which involves washing them on hot then drying them at least 5 times to make them absorbant. I may employ the trick of boiling them for half an hour first to reduce how many times I have to wash them. We already suspect washing cloth diapers may kill our second-hand dryer within a year.
I apologize in advance if my posts get more sporadic. I may have to post about certain milestones retroactively, but I will at least try to post major updates as I can. As long as my hands are still swollen though, I have to keep my typing to a minimum.
