I thought I'd better do an update on my how the pregnancy is going since, well, I haven't done one yet. I'm in week 31 and am starting to feel huge. I had to have an umbililcal hernia repaired about 9 weeks ago (which sucked!! I hope to never have a C-section). After the surgery I started having contrations so I've been taking pre-term labor shots for the last 8 weeks to help keep me from going into labor early. They were going to put me on them anyway so I was lucky and already had all of the stuff that I needed to take them. They suck way bad. The medicine is mixed in castor oil and I have to do the shot in the butt. They are painful but I'm hoping they help. At my last doc appt they did an ultrasound and my fluid level is starting to get high (that's what I did with Declan) so if it gets too high I don't think that the shots are going to do any good anyway. I will be more than happy if I can make it to September though if I can make it to September 12th, that would be the best because then they will induce me and there is a lot less pain that way. So anyway, that's where I am now.
Kelso took this totally awesome pasty white legged picture of me for your viewing pleasure. It doesn't do my biggness justice.
That one's a little better. I don't think I'm as big as I was with Declan at this point so we'll see how big the baby measures on Thursday. In the meantime I made Chandlee's blessing dress and just got it finished today. I made my own pattern for it and I'm pretty excited about it. It looks so small!!
So I made the dress, the diaper cover, and the headband and I'm waiting for her foot flair to come in the mail. I can't wait to have it all together and then to actually have her wear it!! Anyway that's about all that's going on at our place right now but we're ready for this little lamb to get here!
