Thank-You sweet friends & fam for the supportive e-mails, text, calls just asking how I'm doing. :o)As weird as this may sound, I'm actually feeling better than I have in a month. She has dropped just enough to take all of the pressure off of my back so back pain is gone. I can breath again. And I can eat again! (well, that may not be so great..).
She's still pretty much snug as a bug in there not really dilated or effaced enough to cause much excitement. So unless she just completely changes her mind (but seriously, she's my child so she's bound to be stubborn..if she had it her way she'd stay in there another month and be 15 pounds at birth..), the plan is for me to be admitted to the hospital Monday night to start some meds then they'll induce on Tuesday!
(Just b/c I know someone will ask)..there is nothing wrong to cause them to induce. She's just PLENTY big enough, both of our heart rates/blood pressure is great, and his concern is her getting too big then having to do a c-section (which I'm just peachy with anyway). I know different doctors have different philosophies, just so happens that my personal philosophy is the sooner the better in getting her here so I'm in 100% agreement with my doctor!
So I took the day off to do whatever floats my happy little boat, quite frankly I'm not sure what to do with myself not being at work (it's been a tad nuts the past few weeks to say the least)..which is having lunch with a girlfriend ..Get a mani/pedi...and probably do a lap around Northpark (all of these after Christmas sales are KILLING ME! I'm dying to buy some new clothes!).
I'll keep you all posted, we have wi-fi in the hospital room so I'm sure my laptop will stay close by next week....The pic here was from yesterday, my Girls (DarlaK, Dot, & Jolie) took me to lunch yesterday to celebrate my last day-of work pre-baby..Sexy, I know with my large belly & plate of tasty enchiladas I had just downed..
Have a great weekend & we'll keep you posted!
