Okay, last Tuesday (36 weeks) Doc officially put be me on maternity leave- so I have been home since Wednesday - but still really uncomfortable and waking up with my leg and arm numb (partly from my back issues) - and just really exhausted and in a lot of pain - but what nine month prego isn't?!?!?
C-Section is still officially scheduled for the 26th @ 3:30pm, however doc says if the numbness, etc. gets too bad, he is willing to go ahead with amnio and move the c-section up a week... my next appt is Wed - and I will be 37 weeks, so we will see how i am coping and what he says then...
It has been nice to have Kolton home with me, (but further exhausting) -and he started crying for a second this morning because he WASN'T going to daycare - so i guess he doesnt feel the same JK - but I know he does miss the interaction with the other kids, and he loves to be at Sue's... So we are gonna continue to send him @ least once a week while I remain on maternity leave- to see his friends, keep him in the swing of things and give mommy some new baby time too. I am so anxious to see how Kolton is going to interact with this babe... So far so good, he seems really excited to be a big brother. But, I am no dummy - Im sure we will have our tribulations, and moments of jealousy. I am just hoping the 3.5 year age gap helps with that (at least for now!)
I will update after my next appt.
Take Care Everyone!
