Best Moment this week: The past couple weeks have been the best! We moved into a big 3 bedroom house in a gated community in Hollister (it's a rental), bought an awesome new washer and dryer that I am obsessed with, finished the babies nursery and got a new golden doodle puppy named Finley! He is so good already and he is only 8 weeks, he sleeps through the night quietly in his crate and already knows sit, come, heel and turn, We also have visited the midwife who thinks Mason will be here early. Last time she checked I was 40% effaced and 1 cm Dilated and Mason was engaged, that was a week ago. 


Looking forward to next week: Not exactly sure if we will make it to next week to be honest. I have been having very painful contractions since yesterday at 6:30 pm yesterday they were coming 5 minutes apart for awhile but then would take a 20 minute break and then happen again every 5 minutes. So confusing!!!! Now all day I've had them every 15-20 minutes consistently ALL DAY. I decided to take 1 tablespoon of Castor Oil to try and help it along at 3 pm and now at 6 pm my contracts are about 8-10 minutes apart. We will see if it helped or not!!!

Emotions: Excited to meet my little guy soon and a little emotional over random things. Anddd a little cranky and irritable lately too.

Stretch Marks: Still None!!!! :))
