Adventures in Pregnancy



So, I'm having the baby Tuesday. I can hardly believe it's here! It's gone fast, but slow. You mommies know how that is. This pregnancy hasn't really been that different than the first other than some odd sharp pelvic pain I've had for the last 2 months. At the beginning of the prego stage, I craved pickles. I guess the myth is true. I craved milk too but I haven't been able to drink it because it makes me sick. I've def. experienced the pure and utter exhaustion and I'm sure that comes with being pregnant while having a 3 yr old. :) We've been tirelessly trying to get Jace potty trained b4 the baby and it's been up and downs. I know we'll get there, it's just frustrating waiting. We had a scare this last Monday thinking I was in labor because I was having so much cramping. After all day at the hospital, 2 IVs, blood and urine tests, we really didn't know much more except I was experiencing uterus irritability caused from an inflamed bladder. Whatever that is. They sent me home treating me for a variety of things that they thought it "could be". I've been lucky to have my friends help so much with meals and helping with Jace. It's been a hard week and so, I'm ready for Tuesday to come--no earlier and no later. They don't want me to go into any contractions with a csection so I'm doing my best to lay low. Of course, you know me, I had to clean the house yesterday and it's pretty much put me out for the rest of the day today. I really didn't do that much but I guess I did enough. I think grocery shopping put me over. Perhaps it showed on my face, because a couple people stopped and asked me if i was okay. I should've said, "no, will you carry me?" :) This will be my last post until you meet the little guy-(him whose name is still unknown) Thank you for all the friendship, prayers love and support.
