blah
I don't know if it's the weather, the pregnancy, the thyroid condition they can't seem to give me enough medication for (they've increased my dosage twice now, but my levels haven't changed), or the fact that I haven't had a good night's sleep since September, but I have just been hiding under blankets from the world lately.
My computer keeps being stupid, which doesn't help either. I was kind of hoping/planning on replacing it with this years tax refund, but I'm not 100% sure we'll get one, and if we do, it's probably only going to cover midwife expenses.
Pregnancy is going well. Baby's growing a tiny bit ahead of schedule, and moving around a lot. Baby was head-down at our last appointment, which explains why I'm not getting kicked in the cervix anymore (that was seriously uncomfortable and a bit worrisome).
I'm 25.5 weeks now. Considering a window of 37-42 weeks for the birth, this baby could be here in as few as 11.5 more weeks, or as many as 16.5, anywhere from March 27th to May 1st.
I'll be 30 weeks at my next appointment, and from there I start having appointments every 2 weeks.
The days might be dragging, but the weeks and months are flying by, if that makes any sense.
Grandparents swooped in to help us stock up. We now have diapers, and the car seat is on its way. I also ordered some organic formula to use in case I have to supplement. If I don't need it, it'll get donated.
The only thing I really have left to buy is the supplemental nursing system (well, that and a few more clothes). I found a local store that carries them. They're more expensive there than online, but I won't have to pay shipping, and I can return it if I wind up not needing it, so that's worth paying a little more.
So, thats what I've been up to.
