No baby here yet...

Jul 19, 2008 13:03

Still holding on. In about a week I will be "full term" in my eyes because if I go into any kind of labor then, they're not stopping which equals=baby.

I have refused going to the triage at this point because I have been having more contractions than they'd like, however they aren't painful and don't seem to be dilating my cervix yet any. Well at least as of two weeks ago. I am very surprised my other doc, doctor Murey (spl?), didn't check my cervix last wednesday because according to the nurse it has just started to "open." That was two weeks ago. I have started to get semi-hurtful/discomforting contractions, but they are rare. (thank god lol). So I am wondering how open my cervix is. Why don't I check it myself?

I don't exactly want to stick my hand in my vagina.... fyi.

Aidens heartbeat is strong and well as usual. He loves moving around and sticking his feet out either side of my belly. Still getting the hiccups on a regular basis, which I just can't seem to get enough of.

But as far as my body goes as a general, my god. I can hardly walk, I can't turn in my sleep anymore without a LOT of time and effort. My body aches all over. I sweat in like 75 degrees (and it's been near 100 lately) I no longer fit into even my MATERNITY clothes. I have resorted to wearing mens medium/large T-shirts to keep my belly covered. Charles can wear them when I am done anyway. The doc told me I ripped my cartilage in my ribs by trying to turn my body sideways on the couch. He says my body is so petite and the "heavy load" in front has to compensate. *Shrug* I've done that twice now and it makes it hard to do other activities as simple as peeing. Yay TMI! We love those parts.

Anyway as I was saying. 35 weeks and I now look like this:



And have gained a total of 30 lovely pounds. (as many annoying strangers like to tell me on a regular basis, "it's all in the belly!") I swear some women are trying to hit on me.

As far as my relationships goes, oh I have so much to talk about. As I may have mentioned before the last 8 months of my life have been the most up-and-down, miserable, confusing months of my life. I need to see someone. BAD. And not because it's me... but because I am interested in what they have to say.

Let me tell you something. Never, EVER move in with someone who has NO relationship experience what-so-ever. They think they live in some fantasy world where people just have sex all day long... play video games and don't give a fuck about responsibilities.

I'll finish this later, and btw charles never read that baby book I bought him.

pregnancy, rant
