Getting there

Life has been pretty busy and hectic these last couple weeks. Its been a nice distraction and has made the days go by quicker. Today marks 35 whole weeks being pregnant and I still can't even imagine what its going to be like to have a baby. We had quite the weekend this past one. I had my work baby shower on Friday and it turned out amazing all I had to do with this one was show up and it was such a relief to not have to plan and buy and do everything. My family shower I pretty much threw the whole thing because my family just does not have much money and it was fun to do it all but it was a lot my back hurt really bad for like three days after. This one was just simple and easy it was nice to be able to celebrate with my co workers they were with me through so much of the journey. I would have to take shots at work and leave all the time and of course I would be all hormonal and crazy and they would help support me the whole way. It turned out just great and we have more then enough things for this spoiled little boy. So now on to saturday night you never think how difficult it will be to have sex when you're almost nine months pregnant I just never thought about it before I had hard enough time imaging ever getting pregnant so anything past that part I never really thought much of. So here we are trying to figure out way to get the deed done and be comfortable which is just no easy task right now lol. Anyways we always manage to figure it out and well had a good night fast forward to around midnight. I woke up and felt really wet so went to the bathroom to check and my underwear had soaked through I thought hmm how weird but just could be the leftover from a fun night. Well cleaned up went back to bed woke up around 3am and same thing now is when I started to worry. It has never been this much of a mess before so I try to go back to sleep and wake up around 7 and it freaking happens again there goes me in freak out mode thinking my water is leaking!! We get up and get ready then throw the car seat in the car and all we had packed was his bag which we threw in the car too. Got to the hospital and let them know what may be going on. We got admitted and had a nice nurse come in and ask all the questions and then go back to get some tests. Well thank goodness the tests confirmed I was not leaking amniotic fluid!!! It was insane thinking we may just be having a baby we just were so not prepared for him to be here yet and while it was exciting thinking about meeting him already I am thankful he is going to get to grow some more. They checked me and I am not dilated at all which is good to hear but I am already almost 50% effaced which is exciting I will be full term in two more weeks only and I just cant even believe it. So who knows I dont care when he decides to come as long as he is going to be healthy and its on his time. I will tell you that he is very very low so low its hard to walk around we went to the pumpkin patch with my nieces and nephew and im sure people were thinking I was going to be having a baby right then and there! I was walking really funny and squeezing my husbands arm and hands ha ha we were getting some funny looks but there really is a lot of pressure on my cervix right now and im hoping its because he is head down and getting ready to go. I have my appointment next week which I will be 36 almost 37 weeks and they will check me again and we will see what is going on downtown. I am so excited to be here at this point its just so surreal I dont even know what to do with myself lately.
