Things have been super busy, but going very well. I am 35weeks and 1 day today. It's getting so close now YAY! I've had a fairly noneventful pregnancy. My blood pressure has been excellent...at L&D last night it was 119/69.
The only "events" have been the two previous weekends. Last weekend I was getting ready for work on Saturday and put on a pair of workout pants, but I didn't have a shirt to match so I put them away and got out my black jeans. I put on the jeans and then came out to put on my socks and shoes. I sit down and I can NOT reach my feet.
I completely broke down....was freaking out so bad. I reminded of where I was before I lost my weight. Although, I KNOW pregnant is not anything like being where I was before I lost the weight, my mind would not let me remember that. I cried and bawled at the thought of being the almost helpless person I used to be. I hadn't felt that hurt over anything in a really long time.
The other event was this weekend. Friday morning I woke up to potty got back in bed (this was about 6am), when I got back in bed it was weird, everytime I inhaled Alex would kick me and everytime I exhaled he'd kick me again. After that movement in the morning, I didn't feel him move at all again Friday or allday Saturday. I wanted to be safe, so I went to the hospital to L&D to be checked just to make sure he was ok. As SOON as we got to the hospital and I laid in the bed there, he began kicking me again like crazy. I say he definitely takes after his dad! hehehe
I'm on weekly visits now, with a nonstress test each week. My doctor checked my cervix at my last appointment and I've not had any change at all at this point. At my 30 week appointment I had an ultrasound where the baby was measuring in at 3 pounds 2 ounces. I have another ultrasound this week...hopefully he's had a good amount of growth.
I have 1 more week of work, and then I begin a 3 week vacation. I go back on No9vember 12th until I go in labor...I'm hoping that will be on time (the 19th) so that I will only have 2 days of work between returning and going on leave. I tell you I can not WAIT to have this baby and get back to Atkins. I'm ready.....well as soon as we get our carseat out of layaway anyway hehe.
I'll try to update again soon! I hope everyone is well.
