37 Weeks - Part 1

{I began writing this post last week...}

Last week I was pleased to experience a lapse in joint-pain... only to have it return with a vengeance in the last 24 hours. Curses! At least I had a nice 7 day reprieve from needing to move around like a senior citizen. Everybody reasonable keeps reminding me that it's just my body getting ready for the baby, so it just means I'm getting closer and closer to meeting the little lady. 

Funny, how this is my 2nd pregnancy, but in many ways it feels like my first. I had no limitations with Dexter's pregnancy so these aches and pains are foreign to me. 

And ironically, it's not cycling that brings about the pelvic pain. I must have my saddle in the perfect position because as long as my pelvis is stationary, I feel fine. It's the sitting down and getting up or laying down and getting out of bed that seem to be the major culprits. That, and staying in any one position for too long. 

The first half of my 37th week feature lots of treats and fun!

Students have been bringing me lovely flowers and things as thanks for a fun year in piano. 

In addition to riding around enjoying the sunshine, I have also been taking the train for downtown fun.

In new "cycling" shoes!

Treating my lady friend to a birthday dinner at the Marc.

Popping into the Guru Gala at the AGA.

Riding over to Transcend to have waffles and coffee with friends.

Playing with cameras.

Drinking lots of fizzy water.

Spying on other friends.

Enjoying afternoon tea.

With some of my other lady friends who bike.

And also, taking my little D to Fort Edmonton for rides on the street car!

I just wrapped up with work last week on Thursday, and happened to fit in all this fun stuff in 48 hours. Who knew that I would be having my baby at the very end of 37 weeks!
