Topic: Just an update
Lets see , 37 weeks and I now weigh 274( started the pregnancy at 285.4 according to the midwife) , I dehydrated most of it away and lost some due to eating only soft and liquids but baby and I are both still fine.
I'm having braxton hicks off and on about 10-12 a day.
They are doing the measurment sono this week to see how much little miss Ali weighs , 5 more days to the baby shower and I think I am all ready for her to join us at home after that.
I am gonna take a 37 week pic later and will be posting it, or at least trying too...lol
It seems weird that I went from sleeping ALL the time on bed rest to now not being able to sleep...lol
At least now that I am awake more, can eat and drink again and am not in so much pain I back to liking being pregnant and not dreding it.
I even thought at one point about canceling my baby shower cuz if I couldn't move around home without pain how was I ever gonna make it through a 3 hour party with b4 and after time too.
My Aunt called me from Fla yesterday , She is comming up , She isn't sure she will make it before or after saturday but she gave me a rundown of what she is bringing us for Ali ,She was at walmart shopping..lol
She said whatever you don't need or use or get doubles of you can return and get what you need or want for her. She is bringing about 20 outfits,baby bath stuff, a crib mattress, a double stroller,diapers,wipes,bottles a few other things she won't tell me till I get them , and a toddler bed frame to put in storage.
I told her she didn't have to get the WHOLE registry list..and then some ....lol She said she was just bringing me enough to get through the first month just so I wouldn't have to worry about anything till I had time to rest up from comming home with a new little life ,I guess this is what I get for making her wait 20 yrs to have a great niece to spoil huh?
I said well thank you, now all I really have to get that I don't need but want is a diaper genie if I don't get one at the shower , She said well I haven't checked out yet so if I can find someone young enough that works here who knows what it is I'll pick that up too. (She called again, she got the genie...lol )
I guess all I am really gonna need by the time Ali gets here is to love her
Thanx for listening while I ramble.

Paula, you are so sweet!!! Thanks! I feel great and just can't wait to have the remainder of my plastic surgery complete. It will probably be in late September when that happens, but hey! It will happen!
Thanks again!

Topic: Does your calcium dissolve? Try this test.
Hi,
While sitting in my new PCP's exam room the other day, pinned to the bulletin board was this note:
Some of us may not know it, but the calcium tablets (they should be calcium citrate) we are taking do not break down (or dissolve) in our systems and we are just throwing money out the window and our bodies are not getting the required amount of calcium it needs (we're essentiall pooping them out whole)...
Try this test:
Drop one of your calcium tablets into a cup filled with 6 ounces of vinegar (I don't think it matters what kind it is, I use white distilled vinegar)
Check the cup every 5 minutes and give it a stir
If the pill is not dissolved in one half an hour, it won't dissolve and that means it isn't getting dissolved into your system.
TIME TO BUY AND CHANGE BRANDS OF YOUR CALCIUM!
Thought I'd pass this along since we all need our calcium!
