Countdown 1 month!

Countdown 1 month!! It is really hard to believe that I am due in 1 month. I am starting to feel a little stressed. I wrote an email to Mike that said “I think I’m starting to stress out about everything that needs to get done before the baby arrives ... our weekends are getting busy and there is so much to do around the house. My mom is stressing me out with helping her around her house. Plus there is so much still to do ...” I really just want the house to get to a status quo where everything is put away. Denise coming into town, the baby shower, baby gifts, and making a baby’s room has really started to take a toll on our house and I can’t keep up. Plus it seems like there is always something to do and my mom is really pushing me to help at her house as well. And I get tired after work and I don’t feel like cleaning. I have been doing a lot lately but it never seems like enough.

I also had a doctor’s appt this morning where they did the strep B vaginal culture. It wasn’t bad at all and just took a second. Everything still looks perfect. My blood pressure was 110/70, I weighed 165.6 (the doctor said I gained 3 lbs since the last appt), and the baby is still measuring perfect with a heart rate of 150 beats per minute. Mike came with me to the appointment and had me mention the pain on Tuesday. She said it was most likely due to the baby dropping. She said the baby is head down and has dropped but still has further to drop. The doctor said I can come back in 2 weeks but since I already had an appt next week to just keep it. So I am officially into weekly appointment, craziness! She said everything looks perfect. J
