Week 36

Getting though Thanksgiving feels like such a relief. I'm down to my last month of pregnancy. Thank god. I have been having a bunch of contractions lately. The real deal ones and then as fast as they start they stop. People tell me oh those can’t be real they are just Braxton Hicks which drives me nuts. At least my doctor agrees that they are real and I keep experiencing preterm labor. They really have been taking a toll on me for sure. My doctor is still hoping to get her out sooner than later. I would like to hold off till at least the 15th of Dec. That way I can make my one year mark at work and qualify for FMLA. It's all about job security.


I have found myself going crazy over the smallest things. My mood is really crabby and I feel totally unprepared for the arrival or my baby girl. I feel like no one else can see my urgency to get ready and be ready before she comes. They just keep telling me there is time. Well my goal this week has been to try and stay calm and get some cleaning done.
