36 Weeks
Wow, has it really already been 36 weeks only leaving us 3 more weeks until little brother’s arrival? Yikes! It really does go so much fast the second time around. From 34-36 weeks I have had a much harder time sleeping at night and started waking up 5 times through out the night. This coincided…
