woohoo

interesting developments… 36 weeks along, not dilated yet, but i wish i was. dr. stack said next monday when i go back that we’ll do another ultrasound to get an idea of how big she is – he then said that if she’s really big he’d offer a c-section, but i want to avoid that as much as possible, which he’s cool with. he also said that if i start to dilate anytime now that he’d be ok with going on and inducing and that if i haven’t dilated by my due date that we can check me into the hospital and give me cervadil and then induce the next day – so she’ll be here soon!!! my feet and legs are swelling even more, which is to be expected this far along in the pregnancy. nick rubbed my feet last night for like an hour, it was heaven – he’s awesome.

i’m having weird dreams – like the other night i dreamt that eartha kitt was an alien, but she was nothing but goo (kinda like snot) and she was in space in her snot rocket and i had to fly a stainless steel fridgedaire up to her to mop her up b/c she spilled and there was random music which was composed of nothing but LALALALALALA and val kilmer became the governor of new mexico by bribing one person with $30,000 and bribing some woman with a dog.

i’ve had a sore throat for 4 weeks now. i’ve taken a z-pack that dr. stack prescribed to me and nothing happened, i’ve been taking sudafed to see if it’s a drainage issue, and that seems like it MIGHT be kind of helping – maybe it’s from the congestion that pregnancy causes. i hope so. at least i know i’m not contagious otherwise everyone around me would have this too – so i don’t have to worry about passing it on to lola when she’s born.

i’m getting scared of labor since it’s getting closer, but at the same time i’m super excited about it b/c that means she’ll be here. i’m also starting to have little worries like what if the 2 ultrasounds were wrong and she’s really a he and we’ve done the room all girlie and have nothing but girlie clothes. if that were to happen, i would be surprised, i would laugh about it, i’d be glad we’d already picked out a boy name... and then i’d try to see how to manly-fy a pastel pink and mint green nursery, LOL!!!

i’m so tired lately. i could literally take a nap right now. well, i guess that’s all.
