What? Wednesday?

36 weeks, one day

Things have been busy over the last few days, so apologies for the lack of posting.  And I only have time for a quick one now….

Doctor’s appointment went well yesterday.  I’m on insulin injections morning and night…something I had hoped to avoid, but it is how it is. 

We picked a pediatrician.  I was thrilled with her demeanor and her perspective. 

I’m swollen. Feet, hands, ugh.

There is a distinct possibility that I’ll start working half days.  I’m struggling to get through the day and by 2 or so, I’m in physical pain from the swelling in my feet.  Most things are wrapped up, so it won’t be a huge issue if that’s how I decide to go.

But the big news that isn’t really news….I’m dialated 1cm and 40% effaced.  Which means…well….nothing, except that there is some progress.  I haven’t felt crampy/labory in a few days, so I think I may stay here for a while.  I’d love to have baby stick around inside for another week or so if we can manage it.

That’s it for now!  I’ll have lots more to write next time I feel close to awake.
