I’ve been MIA for quite sometime now… But here’s an update of the family. We are all doing great.
Also, things are picking up at Matriarch Vintage and Handmade. Check out the new handmade goods. Momma has been hard at work.
Just a little bump update.
Still feeling pretty good. My lower back is starting to bother me. Might be seeking out chiropractic help one that one soon. Midwife says baby is looking fantastic, still in the head down position. Also my fluid levels are looking great (compared to my last pregnancy)! Lab results showed I have low iron, so I have now added iron supplements to my daily vitamins. I’m now weighing 160lbs. Still pretty tired overall and starting to get that ‘not enough air’ feeling, especially when trying to fall asleep.
Only 53 more days according tot he first EDD they gave us! Thinking it will be a LOT sooner than that!
Tuesday Check-In
…because I missed Monday.
Obsessing over: The fact that I have a ginormous child growing in my uterus. We had a growth ultrasound yesterday that revealed out littlebun is not so little.Yesterday marked 32 weeks and the babe is measuring 34 weeks and 5 days! Already weighing 5lbs 4oz. So according to his current size he could come in early March, instead of late March. “Yay!” is my current thoughts on that.
Working on: Getting some Etsy orders and prints ready to be shipped later this afternoon. If you haven’t already checkout my new little side business at motherrosedesign.tumblr.com.
Thinking about: Calling to make an appointment with the chiropractor because my lower back is really starting to slow me down. Definitely in the waddling stage of pregnancy now, thanks to my extremely sore back.
Anticipating: Getting the bassinet painted, along with it’s new mattress pad made, as well as the sheets for it. Also, waiting to get back my glider cushions back from my MIL after being recovered. I am feeling extremely pushed for time now that I see how quickly this little guy is growing. Not much longer till he joins us in the real world.
Drinking: Coffee!
Bits and Pieces of Our Weekend:
- Dropped off the munchkin and went out with my man for my MIL’s retirement.
- Being pregnant makes you the official designated driver.
- Can’t see my feet.
- Washing, folding and filling dresser drawers for Baby T.

Anonymous asked: Where do you find all your vintage items? Where would I find vintage handkerchiefs?
Handkerchiefs were the hardest to find… I made a post on Craigslist and a lady with a ton contacted me. Others we’re found at yard sales and thrift stores. As are most my other items.
Available print. 11x14. $12 shipped.
