It's been a while

The last couple of weeks have been really rough pregnancy wise. I have had quite a bit of crampiness. I got sent to labor and delivery (because my Dr was out of town) to make sure I wasn't going into labor. Of course before I went, I decided to shower first. I knew I wasn't in labor because everything I have read says that it is something that feels different than anything you have ever felt. I have what they call an irritable uterus. I have to take it easy around the house. I no longer work so straining myself at work isn't a concern. I notice really small things are difficult to do. Laundry for instance is a HUGE pain for me. Reaching into the washer and dryer makes me cramp up. Walking up the stairs too much does the same thing.

Sleeping is close to impossible. I get up to pee at least 4 times a night. I know I am lucky to have been able to sleep on my belly for so long, but it is no longer something I can do. I have to fall asleep on my stomach. I don't sleep hardly at all. Because of this lack of sleep, the rest of the day I am sleepy. I'm talking shuffling zombie, night of the living dead. I am so tired all the time, and there is always something that seems to need to be done.

The nursery is close to be finished. All of Arabella's clothes have been washed and seperated by sizes. Now is just getting all of the little things set up. I need some shelving and baskets. Candice will be helping me get the rest of it set up. Thank God! Who knew getting it all done would be so overwhelming?

My 36 week appointment is Tuesday. I will be talking to the Dr about what happened while he was away. I'm hoping to God that I will also be given a date for when the c-section is supposed to happen. *crosses fingers* Here's to hoping.
