I had my doctors appointment this morning where they took my blood pressure, group b strep test and checked to see if I was dialated. I thought I was in the clear to keep on working, until I told my doctor that I couldn't get my swelling down. He then asked me, "are you still working?" I replied "yes." Quicikly he responded by "not anymore..." He wants me to take it easy this weekend to see if we can get the swelling in my legs and toesies to go down. So I am offically on bed rest. For those of you who know me, this is not going to be easy for me to just rest. I have so much to do. I want to work, I want to clean, I want to go shopping, I want to go look at the lights, I have so many things I wanna do. I don't have time to just kick up my feet and relax......They took a few more blood samples and urine samples to make sure I don't have pre-eclampsia. I hope not.
We also pre-registered, so if she does decide to come then we are ready to just head to L&D. I also took a tour of L&D. It is starting to hit me and I am a ball of emotions today. I am sad because I really didn't want her to come around Christmas, because I want her to have her special day and I feel if it is around the holidays then non of her friends will make it to her birthday parties and her birthday will get lost in all the holiday bussel. I am getting nervous for labor. Not knowing what to expect scares me. Espeicaily since I am going to try and go all natural. Taking the tour hit me hard. I am anixous because I want to meet my daughter and just love on her. I am mad because I don't get to work until I go into labor. But if it's what is best for her then I will do anything.
....and I am so excited. I can't believe she is almost here. I can't wait to meet you baby girl and mommy and daddy love you so much. You can come whenever you are ready.
The doc says it's a good possibilty that I will not make it to January...
yours truly, Mr. & Mrs. Johns
