Lost my mucas plug, peed a lot (wasn't a water break) 1 at home and 1 in public...awesomeness. Maybe had some contractions last night but nothing consistent or strong. Trying to connect with dr's today to determine when I should be planning to do the 2 hour drive to the hospital or if I should be waiting for the c-section date. A little aware that they might keep me at my ob visit on Wed and transition to L & D.

I was sorting baby clothes again...which resulted in baby clothes all over our floor (again)...so hopefully getting that cleaned up lol. We just repacked bags the other day because we heard with a c-section you could be in the hospital as long as 5 days...uffda.

2) any appointments this week? Had one this morning. Baby was very active all through NST.
3) how are you feeling? Any raves, concerns, or gripes? Baby's head is definitely low. Walking is starting to feel very different.
4) gtky: Any last minutes things you are trying to get done before the baby gets here? Always but I figure as long as we have the basics covered we can work everything else out if he comes early.
2) any appointments this week? Had one yesterday and there has been no change since last week (still at 1cm). Dr said my cervix wasn't favorable and the head was down there but not engaged yet, so she expects to see me at my appt Monday, although of course "anything could happen". So after last week's appt, I was expecting a baby this week, but now it looks more like it will be next week.
3) how are you feeling? Any raves, concerns, or gripes? Getting pretty difficult to go to sleep as I can hardly breathe once I lay down, and I'm constantly waking up to pee. I am honestly kind of glad to probably have a little more time. I really was mentally starting to freak out and stress over going through labor again, but I feel like I have time to prepare a little bit more as far as emotionally and it is definitely helping. Haha.
4) gtky: Any last minutes things you are trying to get done before the baby gets here? This past weekend I got so much done. The house cleaner that my in-laws got for our baby present came and cleaned the house. Bags are packed, and my best friend came over Sunday and helped me sooo much in getting the kids room finished up and ready. Now all that is left in there is hanging stuff on the wall. I also got pretty far along reorganizing their bathroom, and bought some new containers for the kitchen to put baby things in. DH sterilized some pacis, toys, and bottles, and I have plans for where I want to put it all and what I want to move out of the way. So all in all I am feeling pretty prepared. Just a few little things to move around and I think I'll be there.
