6 more days to go and 3 visits to L&D

Been to L&D times within the last 3 weeks jus to be sent back home w/ no baby! booo!!! im soo ready for her to come.... castor oil of course didnt work.. guess she will just come on her own.. well she is due on Saturday and for some reason I dont think that she will make an early appearance.. she will be late, like her mommy! ugh.. guess u cant rush a good thing! : )

Today..

I am extremly tired! I almost didnt make it into work today. My body is so exhausted which I know apart of this is sleep exhaustion! UGh! I feel terible!! Keep getting asked why Im still at work.. Uhhhhh... maybe b/c the baby is still in my stomach! AHHHHHH!!! That has to be the most annoyingest question!!!! Im just ready to be a mommy and be at home for a couple of weeks! I think im going to give the good ol castor oil one more good try on Saturday night.. hopefully it will work something out! Geez!

No Induction yet :( Got membranes stripped :)

So my doc told me that she didnt feel comfortable in giving me an induction just yet b/c I hadnt dialated anymore and she is afraid that my body is still not ready for labor.. and it may end up in a c-section.. Which I may be a little naiive but I dont mind.. But she says that she can not do it if the risks are too high to get a c-section.. which I understand.. at this point im just sooo tired and ready to give birth and see and hold my little baby! It feels good to releive my feelings in this blog b/c It kind of gets it out of my system. Well on the bright side I only have 10 days left WOO HOO!!!! So I feel that she may be coming before then anyways.. Doc said to come to last appointment on Tuesday (if no baby yet) and we will see if the stripping of membranes worked (which she did in the office) and if it did then she will have the induction date posted asap for me. If not then we will have to wait until after the due date and do the induction on the following Thursday! UGH!!! I really hope there is progress.. so I am going to walk tonight to make sure that we do what we can to bring it on!!!! lol!!

Lost some more of my mucus plug this morning.. this time it was a brownish tint that came along w/ it.. which I guess its from the doc stripping my membranes.. nothing other than light cramping since though.. nothing major.. I wish baby M would come soon.. Please God make sure that she is healthy but bring her to me soon... I have like no energy left! :)

Only time will tell......

So another trip to L&D.. total of two trips and still no baby M.. Ive been having contractions but still no more dialation passed 2cm.. its just all so frustrating.. So I saw my doctor yesterday, and she promised that if no baby by the 39th week that she will induce early.. I was soooo happy to hear this b/c I am ready.. so that means that I have a week and a couple of days to have the baby! YAY!!! I was sooo happy to hear this.. DH was too! :D
So hopefully at my 38 wk appt on the 26th we can schedule the induction date.. Im sooo thrilled!!

FULL TERM!!!!!

As of Saturday I am FULL TERM!!!! YAY! Im excited.. been feeling crampy and took a little bit of castor oil w/ a rootbear float to see if anything would come of it, but nothing.. im still at work today! lol!

Castor oil! YUCK! its soooo gross! nasty crap.. felt like big globs of mucus was going down my throat when I was swallowing .. I dont think Ill be doing that again! lol!

So Im just patiently waiting.. today I am 37wks and 2 days.. cant wait to meet baby M!! I hope she makes her appearance sometime this week!!!!

2cm and 50% effaced!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAY!!!!! Im so excited about this!!! I cant believe that she is almost here.. some think I may be having her this weekend! I really hope so.. I cant wait to meet her.. Cant wait until my next docotor's appointment next Wednesday!! Hopefully we will see some more progress!! :D
KFC!! YEEEEEESSSS!!!!! :D :D :D :D

Baby measuring a week late

So we went to our Imaging appt. and we were told that instead of 35 weeks and 6 days that our LO was measuring at 35 weeks even! WHAT! OH NO! lol! I just dont want to be pushed back any further! lol!!! but the tech stated that as the baby gets bigger the less accurate the ultrasounds are in detecting how long you have. Which is a releif b/c the way this LO is stretching and getting so active I dont see how I can possibly be over due at all much less have time added on at the end! lol! No, ITs not a big difference but its enough for me. I just want to see, hold and kiss her soooo much! :D

We got some U/S pics but they were horrible,, I just dont understand how your primary business is raidology, xrays, and imaging and your machines are like worse than most regular doctor offices.. lol! just a mess!
But im a happy mommy to a healthy baby and that is all I can really ask for now!
I thank GOD for her all the time..Im soo happy and cant wait to see her!!
She had hiccups two times already since lunch.. I wish I could pat her on the back.. i try to shake my stomach to help her.. doesnt seem to help that much though! :)

Just waiting to get off to go to my weekly dr. appt today!! YAY!!

So little time before LO arrives ... and so much to do..

Aside from the nesting that has just set in and things I have to get for Moriah, I have other things that need to be done before her arrival.. Its annoying because I really dont have the time nor money to do them right now. My car is on its final rope, I need to either trade it in and get another car or buy a new engine.. Its frustrating because either way me and DH will be putting out money that we didnt want to let go of at this time. So we have to figure out what we are going to do by the end of this month, b/c my tags expire on my car.. UGH!!!!!!! Its just so frustrating!

Today, we go to get possibly our last ultrasound before baby Moriah gets here.. which is only in 4 more weeks! YAY! They will be checking her size. I cant wait to see her again today! I miss her soooo much! I know that she has gotten really big b/c she hardly has any room at all to move around in there.. I can literally feel her when she moves her head and hands in my pelvic area.. it feels sooo weird! lol! But it doesnt matter b/c I love her sooooo much! :D

mmmmm... the rain

I just LOVE the rain. I love the smell when it hits the cement/pavement, I love the feeling of the rain on my skin and face, I love the sound of the birds tweeting in the rain. I love everything about it.. It just makes you feel so cozy. I would rather be home when it rains than at work. Ill take being at work any day that its HOT outside! lol! Id rather the A/C! lololol!

Last night we got snookie's bedset sent all the way from her great uncle and aunt in Colorado... It was the set we had on our Target registry.. and here it is..

Some more good news.. my doc has now put me on 6 hr work days! yay! im soooo happy for this.. She wants me to get one more U/S tomorrow b/c the baby looks bigger than my current week. So im def. happy about me getting off for rest.. besides I need it b/c my pelvic area hurts like crazy when I have to get up every now and again to do faxing or just go to the bathroom. Ugh! 4 more weeks to gooo!!!!! Cant wait!!! YAY!!

Baby Shower

Had my baby shower on 4/25! It was awesome.. got soooo many gifts from my registry and even things that werent on there that I forgot to put. We had a blast from the games to the gorgeous cake, to everything! I loved it all.. My DH and SIL & BIL set it all up with the assistance of our mothers and it came out EXCELLENT! I was extremely happy, I kept on talking about it for days.. Now if I could just finish out all of my Thank you cards! lol! Should be done by this weekend.

Dr appts. are going great! Going to get another scan to make sure that the baby isnt measuring bigger than what we have the due date for. The due date will more than likely stay the same but we at least want to see if she is getting really big in there! lol! My doc was a little concerned that she was a little big.. not a big worry but to be ahead of the game on her size. Just as long as my LO is healthy Im happy! :D
