Re: *** Friday Bedrest Check-in ***

  • Good morning!

    I slept okay last night. Woke up at 5am but slept well prior even though I have a bad cold - I'll take it!

    No cravings yet, but I'm sure I'll be jonesing for something soon.

    I had an appointment yesterday. NST looked great and my MW is really impressed with my blood pressures. She told me that she honesty didn't expect me to make it this far or be doing so well - so I guess that's good! I had a trace amount of protein in my urine dip (my 24 hr levels were elevated but my dips have always been neg) but she didn't seem too concerned. I have another appt next Tuesday but she said I could skip a week of doing the NST. I'll be 34 weeks on Sunday which is my first big milestone. After that I would love to make it to 35 wks so I can deliver at the hospital we want, but I obviously want to stay pregnant as long as possible!

    5 fun facts:
    1. I never used to be much of a cat person but my hus and I have two that are pretty much our babies. I'm honestly afraid that we won't be able to give them as much love and attention once our little guy is born!
    2. I absolutely love being pregnant, honestly. Even the uncomfortable parts.
    3. My favorite color is purple (fascinating, eh?)
    4. One of the hardest things about bed rest is not being able to exercise. I really miss going for nice, stress-relieving walks and runs.
    5. Random pet peeve: I hate it when people refer to their husband/wife as their "best friend" as in: "I'm so lucky that I got to marry my best friend!" Yuck, such a cliche.
  • Loading the player...
  • Again "night sleep" was ehh... but my afternoon nap really made up for my lack of sleep.

    The swelling is driving me nuts!! I think if it were just my feet and ankles it would be one thing but both of my legs feel like water balloons!! Also, I've really been wanting root beer lately...

    Wednesday was my ticker change we're 36w2d today. Hopefully LO won't wait too long after the cerclage removal to join us. In getting so anxious to meet her, and just have her in my arms

    QOTD: FFFF
    1. A really great friend from high school (well, high school, middle school, and elementary) is a super talented photographer now and she offered to take or baby's newborn pictures for us... for free!!

    2. I might get to go to Wal-Mart tonight when dh gets out of work (he works until midnight) I just wanted to pick up a few things and I figured I better start trying to be a little more active before the big day (Monday)

    3. My little sister works for a chiropractor and I've already asked her to schedule me an appointment for after delivery, well several weeks post partum of course. I can't wait!!

    4. Lol I'm currently watching Hairspray.... how does John Travolta play a woman so well??

    5. I feel like mopping, and doing some laundry... nesting urges strike again.
