tuesday and one day closer

Morning! Josh is officially off call tonight after 4 long days and I am very excited about that. I know it is part of his job, but it is the most difficult test God has put me through in a long time. The loneliness and stressfulness of pretty much being a single mom for a half of a week and then going back to normal is intense. You never really can get use to it because it is always changing.

Yesterday was pretty normal. The only thing exciting to note is that I got Delores to eat broccoli. This is a big step for us because my very picky eater will only eat carrots, peas, and corn since she started eating finger food. You other moms gets it. I don't have to explain it to you.

Today I have my 38 week check up and it will probably be a busy day. I have a lot to do on days that people can watch Delores for me. Especially since the baby is coming. Because I am have the birth at a birthing center I have to get certain prescriptions filled for after delivery at the hospital. I have to get certain birthing supplies and certain things for the baby to use in the delivery also. I so don't mind, but it just takes time. I've had the prescriptions for a few weeks and haven't been able to make it to the hospital and it freaks me out because at this point I could really go into labor any time and I wouldn't have those things. I'm just glad I made it till today. After today this baby can come sooner than later. Ha Ha.

Everyday gets a little harder to carry my belly around. I've notice 5 new very small stretch marks on the underside of my belly because of how low she is carrying. And even though I am going to the chiropractor and doing some prenatal yoga, the pressure she is putting on my hips is really starting to cause excruciating pain. I can't imagine going on like this for 1 week 5 days, but I guess if I have to I will.

Well Delores has gotten up early so I need to go get her and start our day before she gets impatient and throws a fit. lol. Have a great Tuesday!
