BUMPdate: Nine Months Pregnant

March 27, 2017

NINE months pregnant?! omg.

Part of me feels like I just shared the news with you here. And now, here I am, nine months pregnant and waiting on the baby to make its appearance. I’m officially 38 weeks tomorrow. I wonder if the little one will be socially early or fashionably late? If he or she takes after mama, we’re looking at late. So far, there’s no sign baby will arrive too soon.

I’m excited to share today’s BUMPdate video with you. It’s personal, honest, and true to how I’m feeling. At nine months pregnant, I certainly feel the weight of carrying a little human (both literally and figuratively). But I still feel energized and I’m certainly in nesting mode. Seriously, I’ve rearranged the baby’s book shelf at least a dozen times. I’ve also made a lot of progress on the nursery since filming this video! Whew!

In this video, I talk about everything from the discomfort and how I’m handling my body changes, to my relationship with Jake and the kind of mother I hope to be. You’ll also spot some personal phone videos we snapped throughout the pregnancy.

PS. I have felt such a tremendous amount of LOVE from each of you — my beautiful, loyal readers — throughout this journey. For that, thank you, thank you, thank you. You inspire me to keep writing + to keep creating. Here’s to a happy week…
