the waiting game...

So i am 38 1/2 weeks and im sooo ready for this whole process to be over. im totally over the whole gaining weight, swollen feet, emotional, and just really uncomfortable stage.
I went to the doctors yesterday, and im still at 1 cm! she is no longer breech which is awesome. I dont know why i haven't progressed more but she just must be having a grand old time, cause she seems to not want to come out! As you can tell im not a patient person at all.lol i am just so excited to see my lil one and see what she looks like. The doctor did say that it could be any day now, cause its getting closer to the due date(i think he just said that cause i was so upset) but i have this feeling that she is going to be late, devin says she will be 6 days late, ugh! i guess we will have to see. If she comes one day before her due date, she will be a mothers day baby! But i totally wouldnt mind her coming before then lol

Baby Update

So this past thursday night, i started to feel really sick, so i went to bed thinking that i could just sleep through whatever was going on and everything would be fine. So then Friday morning came, and i was a mess. I was getting pretty big contractions and they were about 6 minutes apart, then starting throwing up, which made the contractions worse cause i got dehydrated. ugh! So i got Reene (my mother in law) to come over, then which she called labor and delivery and they said i should come in and they could see what was going on. Its always scary not knowing whats really going on, so i didnt know if i was going to have the baby or not. They pumped fluids in me, to see if that would help the contractions, which it did, but didnt stop them. After being there for about 4 hours! They decided it was safe for me to go home. The doctor did however did tell me that i am already 1cm, and my baby is breeched, which means i will be getting a c-section if she doesnt turn and the doctor doesnt think she will, but you never know. Wednesday, i get to see my personal doctor who will then tell me what is going to happen. Im still geting some crazy contractions every so often that last awhile, but they are still irregular, so for now i just have to toughen up and take the pain. Devin is already planning on when we are going to have our second child, HE IS CRAZY! Cause right now, im never wanting another child, im sure that will change, but for right now i just want to get the first one over with.
