Still here, Still pregnant

What a start of a week! It’s only Tuesday but I probably have enough appointments to keep my butt of the floor for a while. So I am still here, fully effaced but still pregnant. I was told with being fully effaced now, I could have an easier delivery, I dont actually buy it though. Different woman = different pregnancy experiences.

The good news that I have managed to control my GD with diet only and found out the culprit was actually white bread and jam. I have totally eliminated anything that has more than 2g of sugar per serving (except for fruits) and things are looking very good. I still have the “you are going to have a big baby” mantra from my OB everytime I see him. I used to be scared but not now. He is my OB but I am experiencing everything and control is in my hands, so I just I guess take what he say in stride.

So I am advised to still be on bedrest for the next 3 weeks to avoid being in premature labor. After week 36, I am free to walk all I want, and hell yeah I am going to be out there walking my butt off! In a way, I am ready to have my baby as selfish as that may sounds. I have not been able to have a decent sleep in weeks. Turning in bed is much like moving a house ;-) And did I mentioned plopping my butt on the toilet seat peeing my heart out 4 times a night? Ahh…..the joys of the 3rd trimester….so close….yet so far…
