35 weeks, exhausted, and UH-OH


Last night, at around 11:15 p.m., I thought my water broke. We called that on-call mid-wife and she told us to come in. Turns out (clearly) it was a false alarm. I'm not leaking amniotic fluid, which is good. They did an ultrasound and everything looks okay. She looks like she weighs about 5 pounds 12 ounces. They drew some blood and I'll have to look up what it was called but I some level of something that was a little high. They gave me special socks for my swelling. We had to stay overnight which was annoying! So anyways they told me to take it easy and they'll follow up at my appointment on Thursday. They also said she is head down and has dropped. So here's hoping she comes early. :)

Two more weeks left of work. And I'm exhausted. Hopefully we'll be able to get through these last weeks.

Here's a general idea of how the baby (and mom) are doing otherwise:

Here's how the baby's doing:





I need to talk to my doctor about my swelling again. It's really worrying me. :/

Halloween!!!!!!!:



Greg went as a Chippendale's Dancer and I'm the Staple's Easy Button. :)

I also found out this week that my last day of work is Nov. 19th. I'm very sad. But atleast I have something wonderful to look forward to.

6 weeks left and November is on it's way. :)

33 weeks ♥ BABY SHOWER WEEK!


Here's how baby's doing!!! :] :





I had both my showers this weekend! They both had great turn outs and Lizzie got a lot of great stuff. I can't wait to start setting up the nursery. Thank you everyone who came! Last Sunday we had the hospital tour. It made Greg excited and me a more nervous about pushing a person out of me. Tuesday I went to the doctor and she said not to worry about my swelling. My weight wasn't too hot so I don't want to talk about that but I think that I might be retaining water and my doctor isn't worried about it. And my blood pressure is good. :)

8 months ♥ 32 weeks




So here's how the baby is doing:





So I have a week until my baby showers!! I'm SOOOOO excited!

Monday was a sad day. We went to Bobby Cox last game. It was a great game though. Greg was so worried about me as we were leaving because my feet were so swollen and I was having Braxton-Hicks contractions.

Wednesday we went to trivia! :)

Thursday I took the kids to the park and they played with kites! Poor Phoebe was too little...but she looked super cute in her apple pants. :) Phillip was very good at it.



Friday I took the kids to the zoo! It was so much fun! We couldn't have planned a better day to go and everything we did just kind of happened. The kids got their picture taken with Scooby Doo, we got to see a demo of gorilla training, and the weather was so nice! And Phoebe got to ride her choo-choo! :)



Greg and I took some of our friends to see Rocky Horror as our yearly treat for Halloween. Can't wait until The Rocky Horror GLEE episode! ♥

So I had a great week. I go to the doctor on Tuesday so I'm going to talk to her about the swelling and contractions. And tomorrow is the hospital tour. :)

31 weeks and EXHAUSTED!!


So I've had some good news this week but I can't really elaborate until the whole situation is over so I will keep you all updated when it's finally over.

So I'm 31 weeks along. 2 weeks until the baby showers!!! :) I'm so excited! It's exhausting though. I have no energy for anything. And she is like her mommy and daddy in the sense of she likes her space. She keeps stretching out and she feels BIG! I hope she won't be that big when she is born. The goal is to try and get her out earlier rather than later (atleast that's the goal for me). :) I still love feeling her move although sometimes she hurts me. It's crazy to think that I have a BABY in me. Like a whole little person. It's amazing.

I've been having those wonderful Braxton Hicks contractions. And I don't know why they just say they are uncomfortable, they hurt to me. But alas.

Trying to get the house ready for the baby. Work is getting more difficult. But life is grand. :)
