All about me

On Tuesday I had my doctor appt and I gained 30 lbs I can't believe that much so far. I hope it's not that much more, I know I am suppose to gain more within the coming weeks, but i hope it's not a lot more. But baby sounded good, heart rate was 144, so it think its a boy still. I am going to the doctor every 3 weeks now. Baby is still moving a lot, especially at night. But today it has been lazy. But whenever I get worried I listen to the heartbeat, and I love that Kiersten likes to listen to it too with me! This past weekend, I bought a double stroller, and car seat, and a bouncer. This Tuesday 5/15, I went to the doctor again. I gained 5.5 pounds.....what how did this happen. I know you are suppose to gain most of your weight at the end but I don't want to tip the scales....ha ha! New things with me is heartburn, I get it really bad at night so I have been taking tums. I wonder if this means the baby will have hair! Baby is moving a lot, I can start to feel body parts, it so neat. It oves around a lot especially at night when I am trying to go to sleep. I will have to change positions sometimes to get comfy. Sleeping has not been very good, between potty breaks, heartburn, unusual umcofortableness, and trouble breathing it has been hard to get a good nights sleep. I have been having a hard time breathing, I can feel the babies legs in my chest area. So at night I have to sleep propped up. Sleeping on my side is getting uncomfortable, my hips will hurt if I sleep on one side for too long, so I am constantly turning, I bought another pillow so hopefully that will help. I go back in 2 more weeks. It's getting closer. Next week is my shower.....I am so excited for it! Just a quick update, yesterday I had seen some blood when i went to the bathroom. So i called the emergency line and he told me it sounds like nothing, but to come in and see the doctor. My cervix might be dilating. I wasnt too concerned because i still felt the baby and listened to the heartbeat, but wanted to make sure. So I went in today and the cervix was closed and nothing was going on, I told her I been doing a lot, she said its your body telling you to slow down. She also said I just need to make it to 35 weeks which is tomorrow, so she made me feel good. I absolutely love my doctor! Went to the doctor on Tnursday had a really good visit. We talked about being induced on June 25th. Talked about having a VBAC, what my chances were on having another C-section. And about the doctor knowing beforehand and planning ahead for a c-section. This week at the doctors office I did not gain any weight, actually lost some from last week, but I think it's because I had just ate lunch last week. The baby's heart rate was 160, this time. The NP checked my cervix the baby's head was still high and my cervix was closed so no baby yet. As we get closer, Nick is getting anxious, I am too but I am not looking forward to lack of sleeping. I just want to make it to 39 weeks. We still have a lot to do before baby gets here. Hopefully this weekend we can go though some old stuff and see what we can reuse again. Had some bleeding today but I am not too worried, it was no big deal last time, so I am hoping it's my body getting ready for labor. Last week's appt was good, we decided I would have to have a c section, and we would plan it for June 22nd. My cervix has not dilated and the head is still way up high. No weight gain. Today's appt went well, had some questions answered answered, and final arrangements for Friday, no changes in cerix, still long and hard, best of all no weight gain!
