Pregnancy Update at 38 Weeks
Due Date: October 1st. After not hearing anything from the doctor's office since my 36 week appointment, I finally got ahold of the office and surprise, surprise, another change. Apparently my c-section is now scheduled for September 26th. Unfortunately I still don't know a time. This is really making my planning for Arthur's childcare difficult to say the least.
Weight Gain: My home scale is telling me 26 pounds.
Symptoms: All the same complaints. Plus I've started getting some sciatica pain on my left side. So not cool.
What's different this time: I've been hardcore nesting this time. I have not idea what's up with me, but yeah for lots of freezer meals prepped and baked goods.
Cravings/Aversions: All the baked goods.
Sleep: Eh. Not great, but I seem to be able to fall asleep quickly after waking to pee.
I am loving: The fact that J is coming home on Friday. This three week solo parenting thing has taken it's toll on me.
I miss: Being able to get of the couch/out of bed without wincing in pain.
I am looking forward to: Getting a confirmation on my surgery time.
I'm spazzing about: Not having childcare set up for Arthur for c-section day.
Movement: Supposedly the baby should be not moving as much, but not my babies. Q is just as crazy as he was a month ago.
Preparation: Beyond the freezer meals, I remembered to make Arthur's 3rd year appointment. I also washed the car seat liner and put it back together. Now we just need to reinstall it into the car.
Quentin's Stuff: J's parents sent us the double stroller I wanted! I'm so excited about the idea of having a sit and stand stroller. I am hoping to be able to babywear Q for awhile, but depending on my physical state, that may not happen. At least now I have a few options.
