Vennittah I am so excited, you turn 37 weeks today! WOO HOO! I went into labor in my 37th week with dd... how time flies!

You know.. a part of me is wishing I could hold this baby soon but I just don't feel ready yet plus I am still sick and would prefer not to meet my LO when I have a cold/sinus infection or whatever this bug is.

Even with all my aches and pains at the moment, I am still praying for a march 1st baby. Let us see if I will still be singing the same song next week

I just saw the chiropractor(God bless her) and she adjusted my pelvis and back and oh boy what a huge diff that adjustment made. I think i will sleep better tonight.

OMG I would be just livid at reading that hospital report. Jeez...you'd think they'd inform you more than that. Wow.

I am so tired of being sick honestly. Last night i was just os panicky because I couldn't sleep weel and kept on waking up maybe every 30 mins because I was feeling like my heart had stopped but I think it was mainly because I was not getting enough oxygen so it was startling me. My nose is still so stuffy (and constantly runny). I searched everywhwere in the house for some tylenol because I was alo having a huge migraine for hrs(I think I blew a vessel from blowing my nose too hard). I was finally able to get the last 2 tylenols (cold and cough) in the medicine cabinet in the kitchen. That helped me a ton if only for 3 or 4 hrs. But I was finally even to breathe and fall asleep. The migraine didn't go away but breathing was just a huge relief.

Then on top of all that around 1am I started to have some mild contrax.... There were starting all the way at the top of my uterus to the bottom into my cervix. It was very strange because I had never felt anything like that before. I have been having some this morning but nthg to be overly concerned about. I am so tired of being sick. If i cold just get over this cold, I could enjoy these last few weeks. I am tired of the constant nausea too and dry heaves.

Send me some get over this cold/cough/sinus infection thing soon. I just want to enjoy these last few weeks of baby in me. I think also getting over this cold will help me having an easier birthing time.

ETA: I am also having a ton of cramps around my lower abdomen and back and also my things feel so funny. Its a strange feeling I can't put into words.

Sending {{go away cold}} vibes to you. You totally deserve to be enjoying this time, not suffering through it. Ooh I wonder if those cramps are doing anything....hope so!

last night was a particularly rough day and then worse night for me. I am glad I have God on my side and he gives me strength to go thru some rough times. I certainly know I can't do all this on my own.

Anyway, sometime in the night this LO decide to turn completely transverse and was laying outstretched across my belly. It hurt so much. As of last appt it was LOA which I was very happy about. So what's with the change in position. The Head was definitely on my right side and bum on my left side. I got my stressed out which was not helping matters out and tried to stay calm and nudge it back to LOA but about 1.5 hrs later it decided to slowly turn(this was actually more painful them when it was turning transverse and now I think the head move to the top and bum to bottom. I was hoping that I cam just guessing this but today all the movement is in my lower abdomen. I can feel kicks going down into my cervix. I am just wondering if this LO is just telling me i am not ready to get out or sthg. I am worn out physically, emotionally and mentally and this is sthg I just don't want to deal with now. I feel I have done so much to try and get everything "right" and for the LO to flip 180 is just not sthg I am ready to deal with. Part of me is thinking of asking for an U/S to confirm during my MOnday appt(I also have a MW appt tomorrow so I will ask her t check and confirm). I feel like the baby has also moved back up coz I have no space to breathe. It's just weird. My fear is if they do the U/S and confirm breech then they will start to push c-sec but I know a breech delivery is possible so I have to ask the MW tomorrow.

Please send me some head down vibes. I am just hoping, this baby cooperates. I am having mild pressure waves so I am thinkign my body is definitely preparing for the baby's arrival so I need it to be in the optimal position.

Some pix at 37wks.. I have slacked in posting pix but hopefully I can add some family pix this week. I need to take some time off from work. I'm just so exhausted.

Some pix of DD that I have used on siggies before

You are so beautful. I hope I look half that good at 37 wks.

An Old Slide Show I had for DD 1st year.

OH hun (((hugs))) Sending you loads and loads of head down vibes, I'm sorry your in so much discomfort that really is no fun. I'm loving your belly pictures!! Your so pretty and your dd is anIabsolute doll - I remember the one with her on the playground, I think you had that in your siggy awhile back when I was talking (on the anything board) about moving to the Chicago/Shaumburg area last year lol That one of your dd and dh is soo cute!
