| I am so tired |
This baby is almost here. I'm 35 weeks today. That means I have FOUR! Mondays left before she arrives. FOUR! I'm not sure if you can count, but that's 1, 2, 3, FOUR!
I'm not entirely convinced I'm going to make it. I am so tired. I slur speech I'm so tired. I forget words, names of my loved ones, and cannot remember things. I am so tired. Have I said that yet? I go to bed between 10 and 11. Possibly stay up to 11:30 and wake up at 8, forcefully.
In other news, Nina's head is incredibly low. So low that bending over has become nearly impossible without pain. Her feet and butt are up a bit higher. The good news is I can eat food without constant indigestion and heartburn. The bad news? I can't sit up straight in order to eat the food. I'm best at a slightly reclined level of sitting.
My NST today and 36 week appointment was good. Baby is good, nice and reactive, my blood pressure was 138/78, which is a bit higher but about what it's been running at home. I got my 36 week goody bag from the OB office which included the birth certificate paperwork, preterm labor sheet, hospital packet, and formula samples. I know I'll be breastfeeding again, but it's nice to have some formula on hand for just in case moments. Like when my milk isn't really in and I'm too dead to wake up to feed baby and Todd takes over for a nightly feeding. We're looking to avoid the 2 week night time breakdown of "I can't do this, I'm soooo tiiiiiireeeeed!" this time around.
What's left to do? Organize. We need a place for the pump parts and bottles. We need to wash bottles and see if I need to order more in the event of leaking. They've been sitting for over a year and a half. Who knows what could happen during that time?
This post is useless. I'm so freaking tired that I have nothing creative to write. Sorry about that. Maybe next time :)
