yesterday i had my dr's appt.
i am not as far along as i was hoping / thinking. i am right at 38 weeks. she did the big exam and said that even though he is in the right position, he is still a little high up there. then she stripped my membranes and lemme tell ya... OUCH! for those of you who don't know what that is...
"Stripping the membranes is where a health care provider will separate your bag of water from the cervix, it is not intended to break your water, however, it may."
nope, my water did not break. painful though, yes it was. all that stuff i learned in lamaze? hah! i never once thought about my breathing technique. jo is going to have to remind me when i go in, i guess. speaking of... we have another class tonight.
yesterday was my last official day at work. i think i may go in some anyway though, if i feel ok still after today (i'm still having some discomfort). it makes the time go by faster and it's good for me to walk a lot. not to mention that on fri. we are having a luncheon catered by olive garden. yum!!! free and olive garden?!? i am there! or in the hospital. haha.
not much else has been going on. i've been doing a lot of cleaning. our house looks almost like a normal persons. sorta. we have WAY too much crap. i miss having a house :( oh well, kelley won't know the difference.
i guess i'm gonna get ready and go walk around somewhere some more.
