19-7-2009 - Looks Like

My mood while writing this blog: Worn Out

It looks like dispite my doctors encouraging words, I am going to make it to my appointment on Tuesday.

I woke up this morning feeling different with a LOT of pressure down low. I had been having pressure before but it was distinctively more intense this morning. I had my husband take a look because I felt like the baby was about to crown and he said the entire area down there is purple and swollen. I suppose that explains why it FELT swollen and purple.

Day by day it is harder and harder to walk around. I'm slow like a turtle. I can't help but laugh at myself or else I will cry.

I guess on Tuesday I am supposed to schedule an induction date,.... that is of course if my doctor does not get all wishy washy on me yet again. He has been saying we were gonna set an induction date for the past 2 weeks now and welp....it has not happened.

I am having alot of pain under my ribs on the right side that is radiating all the way through my body into my shoulder. I have read so much conflicting info on what this could be that I have decided to wait until I get to my appointment on Tuesday and just mention it then. After all, at this stage, what is ONE more ache and pain to add to the surmounting misery that is helping prepare me for the even more agonizing Labor. Wooo Hooo!

The contractions I was having have since spaced out and gotten sporadic so I suppose it is nothing more than false labor.

And the saga continues........
