Postpartum Sorrow

so its been a while since i last blogged i know! were all moved in and now just trying to unpack and get all settled. we LOVE our new place! most just are not understanding how we are now living in such a small place let alone an apartment but me and nathan are simple and we honestly LOVE our new living arangments. its easier to clean, cheaper but still luxery apartments, easier to keep track of all the kids, beautiful swimming pools, full gym, and over all i feel safer taking walks with the kids and scocializing with our niebors. we just LOVE it!! and like i said me and nathan are pretty simple and not maerialistic at all so this just suits us.
baby girl is doing great and im doing so so. ive had lots of cramping and tons of painful contractions but despite it im doing fine. my body is just preparing itself to have a succesful VBAC. ive gained 18lbs and am now 29 weeks. the babys estimated weight is 2lbs 14oz and is right on track. she still doesnt have a name yet but like i told rick and anna she feels like a Sofia to me. they really like that name but have been back and forth on it for a while since they realized how popular the name is. i love the name and i think that regardless of popularity if they like it then they should do what they want! there might be a million Sofias out there butshe will be one of a kind and thats garenteed!!!!
i have been thinking lately about what will happen after the birth and im starting to worry a little. i have my own family to take care of and nathan will not be home....how will i manage?? i will be sore and tired and in order for me to prevent postpartum i will need to let my body get back to normal and on track. rick and anna will be so busy with their new bundle of joy i wont be able to use them as a good resorce any more. i dont know what to expect after birth but ive managed worse thats for sure and im thinking i can do it again.
