Updating again!!

I am now almost to 34 weeks which is so awesome. With being in the hospital 3 times with kidney infections and then the one time to have my gallbladder removed at 28 weeks we were not sure if we would get this far. At 30 weeks we switched from lovenox injections once a week to heparin injections twice a week. I am dialated to about 2-3 cm right now and pretty much completely effaced. I am on bedrest or as much as I can be. I dont sit well. I start my NST's twice a week starting today. As soon as I turn 37 weeks they willl induce me if we dont have her before then. They want to try and control when I am in labor cause of the blood thinners. So I am doing all I can. I think delivery would be around Nov 17 or 18th. So I am getting nervous. I am excited but dreading it all the same cause this is my last baby and I will miss having her all to myself and being the one who feels her move and all. I am happy though she seems so very strong and determined to stay in there even though I am sick of the daily contractions. If I get up to move around the house I start contracting and boy can some of them take my breath away.

SO delivery will be soon. I should have the date on the 3rd of November. I go for my next growth scan the 2nd. Doc on the 3rd. I started weekly appointments also at 30 weeks. I feel I am there every day most the time. I also have Intersticial Cystitis which is a bladder disease so they put me on antibiotics again till delivery cause I have blood in my urine. Also have to get ampicillin at delivery since I am strep b positive.

I have loved this pregnancy so much. Even with all the things that went wrong and put me in the hospital none of the things really were pregnancy caused so this has honestly been my best pregnancy so far. That sounds funny. I am now having the awful morning sickness which I did not have at the begining but now have hard times holding food in. Thats so funny to me.

Hope everyone is doing awesome. Thanks for letting me talk about me!!!

What a roller coaster!   But yay for an early turkey baby!   Now you just need to get one of those cute little my 1st thanksgiving onesies. 

In time for the holiday...keep baking.  I want baby out so bad- but I KNOW I will miss being her only connection to the outside world and her pokes.  Though I REALLY look forward to having legs and toes again soon verse a continuous thigh that splits into 5 puffy-toe-like-things at the end.   Keep well- and I can only imagine bed rest is hell- I don't do well being stuck in the house for a day.

I hope that the bed rest continous to go well and that you can keep baking for a little longer!  Keep
us posted!
hugs,
Kim
