36 Weeks

Only 4 More weeks and we get to see our baby boy!! Still having contractions but they are irregular. We went to the Dr this week. She did not check me. She said the contractions could last until he comes!! Not what I wanted to hear. They are really uncomfortable and wake me up at night. Got to go to Lamaze this week. We learned a breathing technique and watch a vaginal birth. We start going to the Dr every week next week. I am just so ready to hold my baby boy and see his lil face!!

35 Weeks

Only 5 weeks left to go!! We had a couple of scares this week. First on Monday at work I started having contractions like all day. So when I got home my mom was here. I was still having contractions but irregular. My mom told me to call the Dr and tell her. So I did about 9 and she said to go to the Medical Center to get checked out, so we did. I was having contractions but I was not dilating. So she wanted me to wait there a few more hours while I was hooked up to monitors to watch the contractions and Canaan's heart rate. Then they checked me again, still not dilating. Then she wanted me to get an IV and get fluids to see if it would stop them, but it didn't. So then they sent me home around 3 am. Then on Wednesday we were supposed to start Lamaze class. My mom came over before. I told her that every time I got up or moved it felt like fluid was coming out, so she said to call the dr. So I did and she told me to go to Medical Center b/c it sounded like my amniotic fluid was leaking. So we went to the hospital again and they hooked me back uo to the monitor and i was still havingcontractions. She checked the fluid and it was not amniotic fk]luid and I was still not dilating. Then we came home.

Only 10 weeks left!!!! I can't wait!! I started washing Canaan's clothes and stuff this week. I started to get his bag ready for the hospital. I also started to get mine and Michael's bag ready for the hospital. I can't believe that it is already almost time!! It feels just like yesterday I found out that I was pregnant. I told my mom the other day that I was happy but also sad that it is almost time. I feel that way b/c I will never get to feel him move inside my belly again. I also now know what he is doing every minute of everyday and he is always with me!! I am not ready to share him yet!! I know that sounds silly but it is the way I feel!! Oh well I want him to come out!! I am so ready to meet my lil man!!
