Almost There
Well, so the baby has turned on her own!!! she is being head down for about 2 weeks!!! and I don't think she will turn back up again since I know she is bigger and it will be difficult. I am going on Monday to be put in the NST machine so they can detect any contractions that I might be feeling, they don't want me to have the baby at home. Last pregnancy, with Alexis, I went for my 37 weeks doc's appointment and he sent me right away to the hospital at 7-8cm dilated and 100% effaced and as soon as I got to the hospital (which was 5 mins. away from my doc's office) I was ready!!! The pushing process: 20 mins!! and he was a big chubby baby (9 lbs). This time I see that they are always checking me, I can't blame them really, but the difference is that with Alexis I was having contractions since 28 weeks and I was effacing and dilating through out those weeks until I gave birth, the contractions were always painful, constant, and long so that is why I didn't know I was in labor: I was already used to them! with this one... Nothing really has happened, I am not dilating, I am not effaced so far, and very mild cramping!!! It seems that my little Charlotte is not ready to come out into the world yet but I am so ready to see her and to have her out of my body!!! Well, I have been really tired, in a lot of pain, and on top of that... trying to get everything in order in the YW so by the time I have the baby they don't freak out on what to do, the New Beginnings has to be post pone now b/c the new material hasn't arrived yet, meaning I am definitely not going to be there!!! My counselor is a little scared but I already have everything ready since last year! It is just a little stress full to think that there are so many activities coming up that need to be done and I am going to be gone for a full month!!! I am trying to keep my house as clean as I can, trying to spend time with Alexis and play as much as I can with him but his games include me chasing after him, sitting and standing up on the floor to run around, and play with balls!!! It is really hard for me to do those things but... soon, I will be able to do that without a huge belly on the way!
Also, I have been in a really bad mood, I can't stand people asking me when they seem: "the baby is still not out?" if I still have a huge belly and no baby in my arms, what do you think??? I actually responded to one sister in church like that and since then she has stopped asking me questions... felt a little bad about that but I am not missing her questions! Also, I hate when people ask me, "is it a girl or a boy?" when I have been telling them for a about 16 weeks that it is a girl! if they don't care enough to remember, why ask every single time they see me?? urgh!!! I am not patient anymore and I am glad that my YW understand that and they just kind of get away from me when they notice I am mad! and then come close to me to let me know they like being in the YW and that they love the classes and that they are going to miss me when the baby is born. They are sweet!!!
I am also, getting nervous about our moving to Utah!!! I am trying to get rid of things, organized things and make sure everything is ready, I know is early since we are moving in July but with a new baby it seems like time passes quicker without us noticing, so I want as little bit of work as possible! so far, everything is doing good, but I feel like I haven't done enough, if I work a little hard, then I am attacked with severe pelvic pain!!!
To conclude this... I will be really happy when my baby is born, I feel kind of bad about the way that I have been responding to silly questions in church and about not being able to interact as much with Alexis. Even though I just said how bad my pregnancy is going, well... is not really that bad I know that I am just naturally cranky and that every time I feel her kick I feel really happy that she is there! and I know I am going to miss that after she is born!
