Week 38 Highlights

2/6/2013

0 Comments

 
How far along? 38 Weeks
Maternity clothes? Oh yea
Stretch marks? None yet!
Sleep: Going downhill...each night it seems like sleep is getting harder and harder to come by.  My mind won't rest and I just cannot get comfortable.
Best moment this week:  Knowing Juliette is doing better then myself! 
Miss Anything?  My freedom.  Going into Week #4 of bed rest has become a mental challenge.  I miss being able to do things like a normal person.  
Movement:  Juliette is still having a ball in there.  I think she's just having so much fun in there that she doesn't want to come out.
Food cravings: Nothing stands out.  Someone better bring a Magic Hat #9 to the hospital!
Anything making you queasy or sick: The only thing that makes me queasy is when I have to get blood drawn.  I absolutely cannot stand it.  I have to look away. 
Gender: Girl.  One diva, stubborn little girl that I would LOVE to meet...NOW!
Labor Signs: No contractions still.  Cervix has dilated a bit but not thinned.  Juliette has dropped some! 
Symptoms:  Does boredom count?  Boredom and mentally drained.
Belly Button in or out?  Somehow still in.  Barely.
Wedding rings on or off?  Off.
Happy or Moody most of the time: I'm going to have to go with moody this week.  All this sitting around is turning me into a basket case.  I have way too much time on my hands to think.  I am a ticking time bomb.
Looking forward to:  HOLDING JULIETTE IN MY ARMS!!!!


Hands down this has been the hardest week.  It's become a mental game with me.  At my doctor appointment Monday, my blood pressure was 170/90.  It was so high that the doctor sent me directly up to the Labor and Delivery floor at St. Vincent's to get hooked up for some tests.  Within minutes, I was whisked away by wheel chair to L&D.  I got put into a L& D room.  They hooked me up to the fetal monitor and blood pressure cuff for about three hours.  Pappaw was in town so he and Josh got to hang out with me.  I honestly did not think I would be leaving without a baby in a car seat, not still in my belly.  A little after 5PM, they discharged me and sent me home to rest some more.  So...here I sit.  Still on bed rest.  Laying on my left side.  Watching T.V .  Thinking about meeting this little girl.  And wondering when I will finally be able to hold her in my arms.

I guess it at least got me out of the house for the day.  It's back to the doctor on Thursday for the 1,000,000th fetal non-stress test, ultrasound to check her amniotic fluid level and to check my cervix.  At least Juliette is happy in there :)
