2 days til Due Date!!

Ok so I know I know I've beem totally and mega slack with the blog!! But there hasn't really been a lot happening in the pregnancy department...just rolling along!! BUT alas I find myself 2 days out from my due date!!

Had my final OB appointment this morning where he performed a stretch and sweep of the cervix! I was a little bit worried as people had said it could be painful but my cervix must have been nice and soft coz besides it being slightly uncomfortable it was absolutely fine! Some people are opposed to them but I was of the theory- between papsmears, the d&c, internal ultrasounds I have had a fair share of people making me uncomfy in there and this could prove beneficial to get bub moving!! So now we wait!

Think I had a small leak of waters yesterday after my nap - either that or I wee'd myself a bit (likely) but after some research it seems like a small leak! So FX things are happening! Have been having A LOT of BH that last few days - lots yesterday! Thought I woke up with a CX in the middle of the night as I woke up and the pain was all through my lower back as well! But I'm of the mind that if it is contractions they will wake me up more and more so I don't get too excited! I'm actually fairly rational about it all at the moment! Like when something new happens I don't jump up thinking 'this is it' but just that 'well at least my body is recognising this and hopefully will kick into gear soon'! So I try and just go with the flow!

If he decided xmas day is his birthday then so be it! That's the way the world turns - as Dr John said at least the hospital is pretty much empty so the chances of having a room to myself or with one other person instead of 4 are a lot higher!

So we wait! I am happy with how I am carrying so far aswell! Sleep is the only comlaint I have! I am now at the point where I need to sleep upright on my back because if I sleep on my side I get pelvic pain and NOW I also get cramps in my hips from the weight of my belly! So if I DO sleep on my side I'm now surrounded by pillows - between the legs, under the belly, behind me and also sleeping with my head on 3 pillows!!

I will be sad when this pregnancy is over as I will miss feeling little man in there - it's like that stage of a relationship when everything is still a possibility and the world is your oyster and and you can imagine everything.... because until bubs comes I can imagine what life i going to be like with our little guy..so once he is here then reality will kick in and I'm sure it is better than anything I have ever imagined!

So there you go.... up to date with where I am at...hopefully next time I post I will have little man! But I promise I won't leave it too long!!!
