5 more days to go!!!!

So I'm pretty sure that if it weren't for the bed rest Tristan would've come on his own by now. Everytime I try to do anything I get contractions. The dizziness has gotten a lot worse so my body is pretty much forcing me to obey the DR and stay on bed rest. It's a nightmare. I can't even shower on my own because I get dizzy, but I am in a better state of mind. Yes, I still cry daily over being miserable and not wanting to be pregnant anymore, but I am trying to remind myself of what a miracle Tristan is and how much we went through to get to this point. I never thought I'd be preparing for labor. In fact it wasn't until we hit about 30 weeks that I really started believing that we were actually going to make it through this. Now we have only 5 days until induction!!! HALLELUJAH

The counting down really helps. ONLY 5 MORE DAYS!

Just updating yah ladies. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers. I'll be sure to let my angel know what's happening when it all happens!

Just remind yourself that you can now count the days on one hand.

Hang in there...and miserable as I would imagine bed rest to be...try to rest up for the upcoming delivery...which I hope is a fast and easy one for you.

Thanks Holly,

It is pretty boring. I never want to watch TV or movies again, but other than being uncomfortable in my own body and not being able to get comfortable... It could be worse. I am trying to look at it as I am resting up for "the big day" ... all I have to say is I don't know how women do this for months.

Thanks

Hang in there! Very soon!

I got to thinking too, the doc who took care of me while I was in/out of hospital while preggo with Jantzen, AND he delivered Jantzen, left my OB practice and is practicing in Wesminster. I wonder if he works where you go? that would be interesting.

Anyways.......these last few days will feel like an eternity, but it won't be long. And sweet tristan will be in your arms.

I doubt that as my Dr, Dr. Yashnik is the only Dr at this practice.

What was your Drs name?

That should go quick for you!! I hope you get to feeling better soon!!

Thanks for the update...I'm sorry to hear about the daily crying but I'm happy to hear you and baby are doing well otherwise and you are only a handful of days away from THE BIG DAY!

I know what you mean about not believing until about 30 weeks.....  I had a huge moment today when I opened the box that the carseat came in and I was like "OMG, there's a baby carseat in my house." I had gotten it out to bring it on a test drive...but ended up NOT bringing it because it made things "too real." On the next go-round I'll bring it.

Keep us posted on you and your little Tristan,
