30 weeks

30 weeks with 9 more to go. I'm hoping for an Oct. 4th C-section date and should know next week what the exact date will be. Baby girl is taking a lot of iron from me these days and I've been trying to eat a lot more iron rich foods, as well as take a supplement. Being anemic has made me feel really rough some days, but others I have felt great. The lower back pain has definitely set in and my yoga teacher says that doing "cat/cows" and spinal balancing will help this. I'm thinking that a few good massages will help with my comfort level these next few weeks too.
I haven't posted anything about names yet because I've been all over the place with this. And there is a good chance I'll change my mind a few more times. I'm thinking that when this baby gets her and we meet her, then we'll be able to name her. All of the 1st names below are just names I like. Francis is my paternal Grandma and Noel is my maternal Great Grandpa (but it was pronounced Nole).
Elin Francis Smith
Linden Francis Smith
Elloise (Elle/Ellie) Francis Smith
Willow Noel Smith

Check out Buxton eating spaghetti with his fork. He ate a huge bowl of spaghetti that had all kinds of veggies hidden in the sauce. I was so proud of how well he did with his fork. And in the last week my heart has been especially overflowing with all the affection this little man has been giving me. He dishes out kisses constantly and hugs almost as often. I am such a happy Momma.
