Baby Update

Well I am 38.5 weeks along and had a Dr. appointment today. Well the good news...I didn't really get any from the doctor as far as having this baby goes. She must really like where she is right now. She was way high, and far into my back, and posterior, I am one centimeter but have been for like two and a half weeks now. I was seventy percent effaced which is a slight improvement. Needless to say this baby is not going to come early from the looks of it. Which is ok, but it would have been nice having her this week because Micah could be home with me all week because of spring break. But I guess I have a strong willed child that will come when she is good and ready to come. So I will just wait, and wait. Not like it is that bad I am not even due yet right? So that was a long boring update, but that is where I am at right now.On the up side I only have to work two more shifts before I get to go on maternity leave. That is a good thing, because work is making my back hurt and making me very tired, but I guess I can't really complain or I really shouldn't it could be worse. Well sorry to bore you, good bye.

Update

So I am not so good at this whole blogging thing. I figure it is time for some kind of an update. I don't have pictures though, so that will come when I can get to that. I am still pregnant, but down to the final countdown. Only ten more days to go. I can't believe how fast it has gone by. I am not going to lie, being pregnant has not been my favorite thing in the world. Woman that say they just love being pregnant have to be some kind of crazy because even without a lot of complications I just don't like it. But besides the point I can't wait to have this little girl in my arms and see what she looks like. I thought I might just do a little recap on my pregnancy. The first four months are quite a blur to me. It was like one week after I found out I was pregnant that I started to get sick all of the time. I probably puked in every parking lot and marked my territory with puke on every part of the highway I drive on. It was not fun. I was always so tired, and pretty much just worked and slept. Poor Micah probably went crazy because I didn't cook dinner much because everything just made me sick. The second trimester was a little bit better. I wasn't so sick all the time and the tiredness kind of went away, and I hadn't really started growing too much. By the third trimester, when the baby started invading my space and rearranging my organ systems that is when it became uncomfortable and I became tired again. The last couple of weeks I have not been able to sleep, and everyone says that is just preparing you for when the baby comes because you are not going to sleep then. None the less, I am still very excited to have this baby, and it wouldn't hurt if she wanted to come just a few days early because my back is killing me. So any suggestions for making a kid want to come out go ahead and share. Well that was probably pretty boring to all of you but hey at least I have a record now. I will post some belly pictures when I get a chance. That is all now good bye.
