Not Yet!!!! She is way to Cozy!!!!

I went to the dr today and had a stress test I was having contractions every 8 minutes but they were not strong enough and baby girl sounded really good and strong moving all over the place.  They said she is way to cozy in there and needs to get less cozy to come out, my placenta is holding her very well. I had my membranes stripped again today my dr said she could feel her finger and ear said she is is laying with her arm behind her head just relaxing lol she is already taking after her dad.  I am only 1 1/2 dilated hope that changes soon I was really hoping that I would be more, I did lose my mucus plug last week but it didn't make a difference. I gained my pound back so in a month I have not gained any weight, hmm not sure how I am pulling that one off.  I hope she comes soon before fri that is when Shastina and Rylan have to fly back home.  Come on baby girl everyone is waiting for you!  If she isn't here by sun, I will go in sun night to get induced and she will be here mon no matter what, I'm really excited to know that no matter what I will have her in my arms in a week.

Due Date!!!!

Today is the due date, I'm so excited! Baby Girl it is time to come and meet mommy and daddy we are all waiting for you.  I did wake up early this morning and lost the rest of my mucus plug and now my back is achy and I'm all crampy and having some contractions so I'm thinking soon if not today in a few days she will be here.  I did go to the dr on Mon and had her strip my membranes and I have been eating pineapple walking lots bouncing on my ball, you name it I have been doing it.  My sister and nephew Rylan fly in tomorrow night so I am hoping she comes by then but it all up to her when ever she is ready.

My mom has been here since last wed and we have been busy and having fun decorating the outside and the inside of the house, I think we are all done I love christmas looks so cute and festive in here.  Hope the next time on I'm telling my birth story, we are really excited and I can not wait to hold my baby girl for the first time.
we will decorate when my sister gets here

SOOO Close 39 weeks

I am so close any day now baby girl can make her appearance, I am so excited.  I actually thought she was going to come tues, I was having really bad contractions and lower back pain we really thought it was time but then it went away after a few hours, what a tease lol no just getting my body ready I am sure.  Grandma, my mom, showed up wed the 1st and we have been busy walking around stores and shopping lots and decorating I hardly sit and rest just trying to get her to come I even ate a whole pineapple last night been bouncing on my ball you name it I probably have done it in these last couple of days.  She will come when she is ready I think she is cozy in there. I still feel great except for the pelvis hurting if Isit to long and I have only gained 24 pounds not to bad not sure how either I eat all the time.  I have officially lost site of my belly button and feet can see the feet if I bend over and have to look in the mirror to see what is left of my belly button. Nothing keeps me down I just keep moving,  we have been really busy decorating the inside and outside of the house for christmas and hope to get a tree in the next day or so, getting ready for the holidays.

Last Saturday I ended up in the hospital was really sick couldn't keep anything down called labor and delivery and was told to come in.  I was a little dehydrated so they hooked me up to an iv and had me stay over night and kept pumping me with meds I ended up having really bad acid reflex and heart burn which  I have never had before.  It took 24 hours before I could hold anything down and for them to release me, it wasn't fun being in there but at least I now know that labor and delivery has really nice nurses and doctors.

We had a really good Thanksgiving ate lots, we went over to grandmas house and played games.  Babies R Us had there black fri start at 10 pm on Thanksgiving so I had the great idea to go and save, what a joke Roger and I showed up and the line alone was huge wrapped around other stores and the parking lot was full so we went home.  I was a little bummed was hoping to find a few deals, I never do black fri but I wanted to save on some baby stuff.  I woke up Fri and decided to go and check it out I was a little worried but it was noon and the sale ended at 1 I got there just in time to get my glider rocking chair on slae normally 299 I got it for 150 and with gift certificates only paid $85 for it I was a very happy camper and got my nieces there christmas presents on sale, zhu zhu pets so it all worked out in my favor i even scored at babies r us on the last few items I needed on cyber mon, I love store pick up I didn't have to pay for shipping.

I am really hoping this little girl comes soon we are all ready for her, we even set up her cosleep next to our bed, her clothes and bedding washed everything she needs. I just need her here but we still have 6 days to go. My last appointment on Mon I was really soft starting to open and she was a little lower so it will be interesting to see where I am at on mon at my dr appointment that is if she isn't here yet.  I can not wait to feel her fingers around mine and to see her sweet face Roger and I are ready to complete this family.
