She said, Heather, you haven’t been doing anything crazy like, um Christmas shopping today? Um, I swept the kitchen floor? Is that getting a little nutty?
I gained 3 lbs this week, which she said is most likely from the swelling, which has really started to kick in to high gear. I was a little bummed about the 3 lbs. I’ve done so good, up to this point, I gained 13 1/2 lbs in 35 weeks, Week 35 – 36 I put on 3 lbs? LOL
I told her, I’m so glad I’ve only got 4 weeks left, and she said, you might have less. If your blood pressure stays up like this we’ll induce you at 39 weeks at least. Well, 7 days before my due date is December 16, the day before is my birthday, which would be kind of a cool birthday present. I’m not looking forward to pitocin again, but I am looking forward to not being on bedrest anymore. Getting back to something that resembles a normal life.
She also told me to start taking unisom at night because I’m only sleeping about 30 minutes at a time in between getting up to make a trip to the bathroom, then it takes forever to get back to sleep. and then it happens all over again. She said that I’ll be in no shape for labor if I keep going like this. Aw heck, I’ve got 2 other kids and I made it through their labors. LOL
So, still on bedrest, hopefully only 3 weeks left, I can keep this up for 3 more weeks.
