33 Weeks!

I'm getting there now, yay! Seth will be here within 6 weeks, possibly sooner if he comes on his own, and I'm SOO ready to have him here. This body is beyond exhausted and I'm ready to keep up with my kids again and begin losing weight. The hormones this pregnancy have been OUTRAGEOUS LoL. I'm ready to be calm and logical again. I'm almost positive that in the last few days he's flipped to head down and the pressure/pinching is intense. I'm getting *at least* 4 braxton hicks contractions an hour and I'm having at least 2-3 regular painful ones a day on top of all day cramping in my uterus and lower back. Sleeping at night is a battle LoL. I'm always turning to relieve pressure from the side I was just on and this little guy actually wakes me up with movement... his movement actually hurts me, so weird! My blood sugars have been great, my case is very mild so I'm thankful. I go to my prenatal appointment on Tuesday at 4:30 and I might get an ultrasound request slip to check fluid levels and his weight/size. Lets hope he's not a porker LoL. After that I go again on October 5th which is 2 weeks later and then I go weekly until he either comes on his own or until he's evicted by induction sometime in my 39th week. The Group B Strep test is coming at either this appointment or the next one. With the way this pregnancy is going it wouldn't surprise me if I am a carrier at this point in time LoL. Taylor is very anxious to meet Seth and she talks to him through my belly button, it's so cute. She said she wants to help change his diapers, give him baths, and hold him. Right now in the evenings I'm enjoying the quiet with Andy after the kids go to bed because that's about to be long gone for another 9-12 months LoL. I have my low sugar bowl of ice cream and whipped cream, talk with Andy, and get into a nice warm bath to help my poor body LoL. Oh Mr. Seth, we really can't wait to meet you and we're so excited you'll be here in our home to add more chaos and joy to our zoo :)
