No wonder!!

I was reading my 30 week e-mail and it says that Alayna's bones are fully developed. No wonder why it hurts when she pokes elbows out and kicks me!! lol Okay, so I'm kind of getting nervous. Yesterday I went to the doctors and they want me on moderate bedrest. They said if I get any other painful BH contractions to go to L&D immediatly because they might actually be regular contractions. They also said my cervix has softened and they want to be sure I don't dialate before I should be. They want me to go at least until 35 weeks. They measured Alayna through measuring my uterus and they said it's measuring a little big for 30 weeks, which means she will be early or a big baby. (I knew she'd be a big baby...hell, I was 10 pounds.) They also told me my back pain will only get worse as time goes on, but should disappear after Alayna is born. They're still saying I might have to have a C-Section too. :( That also scares me!! I have to get a hospital bag packed, because they said anything could happen at any moment, so...No problems there. OH!!! I LOST 7(ish) POUNDS!! Yay!! The doctor said that's a good sign that I'll lose all of the pregnancy weight and even more after Alayna is born. Party!! They never had any doubts about me losing the weight anyway because most of my weight is water weight. Ewww. Water retention sucks! My BP was actually very very low yesterday. They didn't tell me if that's a good sign or bad sign, but they want me to keep taking my iron pills because I'm still really badly anemic. :(

Today is my grandma's birthday!! Happy birthday Grandma!! Hehe. I also found out that my other grandma (dad's mother) got me 67 packs of diapers so far!! My GOD!! I don't think I'll ever have to buy diapers. lol She's been getting them since she found out I was pregnant. Wow...!! She also keeps getting other stuff I'm going to need too. Small things. I'm so grafeful for that. She said that if I ever run out of diapers she'll buy them for me so I don't have to spend my own money. I love granny. lol She's really great. My baby shower is on Sunday!! WEE!! lol I just checked on my registry today and I'm getting a travel system from someone!! It's not the pretty one I wanted, but hey, it'll do. I really am thankful for everyone who's getting me stuff for my shower. :)

I'll probably write more later, because right now I'm going to get something to eat. I've been sleeping all day because of back pain, so I haven't eaten.
