Pregnancy Notes: 40 Weeks and Pampered

by TrainerMomma on October 3, 2011

Last week was my personal pampering week. I’ve done this indulgent routine a grand total of four times in my life, before each baby. I highly recommend it.

Pre-natal Massage.
Having someone rub my aching back, shoulders, and legs is the least I can do for this bod.

Pedicure.
When the rest of me is falling apart, leaking everywhere and everything, I can always look at the Atomic Orange toes in the stirrups and feel cute for a moment.

Hair is colored.
My hair is once again Fox Newscaster blonde.

OK, Baby Reading, the pampering is done.

It’s Week 40 and I’m officially ready.

Aren’t you?

It’s gotten a bit crowded in there, hasn’t it?

There are a whole lot of people out here waiting to finally meet you.

Anytime, really.

I’ll just sit here and wait.

‘Cause you know I’m not sleeping. :)

Hang in there–can’t wait to see a pic of this new trainer-babe!

3 Dee October 3, 2011 at 5:47 pm: Hope Baby makes an appearance soon. It’s been 28 years since I’ve been in your place, but man …… I REMEMBER!
4 Ashley October 3, 2011 at 6:33 pm: I was just thinking about you yesterday and wondering if baby Reading #4 made his or her debut. I hope everything goes well and quickly for you
5 jennyonthespot October 3, 2011 at 6:35 pm: Good for you, Mama! SO excited!!!
6 Kate October 3, 2011 at 7:21 pm: Can’t wait to meet the newest TrainerBaby! Any last minute guesses as to what it will be?? I’m guessing girl.

Hope he/she makes their grand appearance soon, and as smoothly and painlessly as possible.
7 Lisa October 3, 2011 at 9:33 pm: Never met you, TM, but you’re in my prayers! Blessings to you and yours.
8 The Queen Vee October 3, 2011 at 10:12 pm: You deserved every single second of that pampering. I know you can’t wait to check out 10 new fingers and 10 new toes. Praying that all goes smoothing for you and the new bambini.
9 TrainerMomma October 3, 2011 at 11:05 pm: Thank you so much!
10 Christina October 4, 2011 at 4:07 pm: I agree pampering before giving birth is a MUST! I’m surprised to even hear you use the word stir-ups though since giving birth on your back is the most inefficient way to have a baby.

I hope all goes well for you!!
