Yesterday was my 37 week check up with Dr. Schneider. It went well - the baby was moving, I was having contractions but only dilated to a one (still). This means that the baby is not coming any time soon. That is fine because I am officially not ready. His or her heartbeat was in the 140s - maybe a boy after all?
Today was just horrible. I went in for my six month dental checkup and all but passed out in the chair. I started to black out and sweat and I thought I might throw up. I couldn't drive so I had to have Nick come get me. I don't know what is wrong with me (blood sugar, blood pressure, baby sitting on my nerves?), but I feel bad for stressing the poor baby. It makes me feel like a horrible mother already and he or she isn't even born!
I have so much to do at work that after lying down for a couple hours, I went back to work. That was probably a mistake because I am getting so stressed I can't prioritize or concentrate. I also did not feel well, which didn't help. :(
Tonight I tried to get things ready for the baby, and of course there are things I can't locate. I just hope Baby K stays in there for three more weeks and maybe my situation will improve by then because I am officially a hot mess!
Baby K and I are very lucky to have Nick and Jace because I couldn't make it without them. They help every night by rubbing Mommy's back and telling me that it will be okay. Jace says he wants the baby to come out and is just the sweetest little boy that anyone could ask for. Baby K will be so lucky to have him for a big brother, and I will be lucky to have two little angels in less than a month.
