I haven't posted anything new in a month! I am not able to sign in at work for some reason and I never check this thing from home. But today I am actually a little bored and in front of my computer, so I figured I would take this opportunity to write a little:) I am officially as big as a house:) My due date is 5 days away!!! My doctor says that my cervix is high, thick and tight as a frickin' drum. No labor in sight for me as of right now but things can change overnite, so I'm just waiting it out. My doc says that she will induce me whenever I am ready but I don't want to rush nature. I figure he is still in there for a reason and I won't induce until absolutely medically necessary:) Most people (especially those who have had babies) are telling me I'm crazy to not induce immediately but whatever...I'm letting my boy decide when he wants to enter this world:) My doc says she'll make me induce if I go a week past my due date, so there is an end coming:) I like being pregnant minus my swollen feet and ankles, so I'm good to go until Cole is ready:) Plus...my darling husband gave me a cold, so I am coughing and sneezing and blowing my nose constantly and I don't want to be doing all of that on top of pushing out a baby. It really is weird because I was just realizing how absolutely healthy I have been during this pregnancy and then whammo...I get sick. Such is life:)
I went to my sister Sarah's wedding over the weekend and had a really good time. Her wedding was beautiful, minus the big as a house bridesmaid wobbling down the isle:) Her reception was a ton of fun!! Everyone was so doting on me and getting me drinks and food...it was awesome!! My sister was beautiful in her wedding gown and her husband is the best!! I had the best time and I'm so happy that my sister is so happy:) The plane ride down and back wasn't too bad (only and hour) and I had my first contractions (BH) on the day of the wedding!! I think it was mainly due to all of the rushing around and hubbub that was going on. I also stayed up at my mom's house, which is up in the mountains outside of Chico, and so I had to climb a huge hill after we visited her 20 horses down in the stables!:) Fun times:)
Everyone is calling me and checking on me to see if I'm contracting or just to see how I'm feeling. So far, nothing is happening and I'm beginning to wonder how fast everything will progress once it all starts. I'm excited and scared to have to push this huge baby out of me but I'm sure when the time comes, I will go into survivor mode and get things doen like I always do:) I can't wait to see my boy!! I also can't wait to sleep on my stomach, bend over and pick stuff up, exercise, roll over in bed easily, see my feet, have normal sized feet...oh the list goes on and on:) I wonder how soon I'm going to want another one:)
