Just Can't Get Comfortable

Spent the entire day feeling what I thought were just Braxton Hicks contractions. They started shortly after taking the 6 year old to school. I went about my day as normal. Went to Starbucks, came home, napped for about 3 hours. Woke up with the contractions, but they weren't bad. The kiddo came home from school at 2:45pm and we did our normal after school things. By 5pm, the contractions were still there, but never consistent enough for me to worry about. I ordered dinner since I wasn't feeling up to cooking, the kiddo picked pizza. I ate a couple pieces and by 7pm, bed time the contractions weren't easing up. I decided that I would lay down to relax, but couldn't get comfortable. That's when I decided to call the hospital to see if I should come in to be monitored. They said yes. So hubby left work early, we took the kiddo to my sisters and then headed to the hospital.

Csection Scheduled

Well baby is still breech and we have scheduled the csection. Baby will be here the morning of October 24th! I will be 38 weeks by then. Decided not to have it at 37 weeks because that is the week of my birthday and I really didn't want to deal with losing my baby the same week as my birthday.

Weekly Appointments Suck

Well my first weekly appointment didn't go as planned. I ended up going to L&D again for fluids and to be monitored again!! Hopefully this will be my last time being monitored here.

Follow Up after L&D Visit

Well since I had the L&D visit, my OB wanted to see me the next day. We have come to find out that I will be having this baby no later than 37 weeks. So only a few short weeks left!!

First Trip to L&D

Spent the morning being monitored in L&D. Baby decided it wanted to dance, kick, and poke most of the time. Heart rate would be between 150-165 depending on the movements. We were also finally able to get the recording of the heartbeat for the lamb!! Since my BP was up at this time, my OB wanted me to start weekly appointments to monitor better so I won't end up with preeclampsia.

30 Weeks!!

Made to the 30 week mark!! Baby still has a strong heartbeat, but still has low to almost no fluid. Baby is also breech and since there isn't enough fluid to turn the baby, I will most likely have a csection. If still breech at my 34 week appointment, we will schedule my csection for early to mid October

A Special Song

Everytime I would sit and listen to music the baby would move, but anytime Blackbird by The Beatles came on, it would kick and move so much more than normal. So this song became our special song and I will always remember this sweet memory.
