34 weeks

Somehow, I totally forgot my Friday update. Geez! I don't know what I was thinking!


I actually have no news of consequence regarding Hunter. He is growing. My belly is stretching to its max. He is sitting on my tail bone -- that about covers it.

Tuesday I was admitted to the hospital for dehydration. The stress of the illness put me into pre-term labor once again. I received 2 shots of Crazy Juice A.K.A. Terbutaline and he began behaving. Since 26 weeks, I have been in pre-term labor. I have done an awesome job of managing it myself, hoping that I could avoid getting a dose of Crazy Juice. Tuesday I failed. I'm so bummed. I haven't had one single contraction since then, and now I feel like he may NEVER come. I have to go back to the doctor Wednesday, which besides a Group B strep test -- will be an massive waste of my time.

I know... I sound so positive, don't I?

On the bright side in the past 2 weeks I have accomplished everything on my baby to-do list. One of the best pieces of news: I get 6 weeks of paid maternity leave!!! I was NOT expecting that! I have pre-arranged for my epidural, washed clothes, and nested until my hearts content. I just need to finalize some arrangements for the big kids, but if he came today, we would be ready. Now starts what I feel like is the longest part of pregnancy -- the last month. I have a feeling it's really not going to go by as slow as I think...
