My mood while writing this blog: Ok

May 8,2009

went for my u/s app. Baby's est. weight is 4and1/2lbs, they said a little small. My cervix is shorter again, now it measures 2.7 cm. I was told to rest more,so the baby gets a chance to grow better,and to keep the pressure of my cervix. I 've been having some minor BH, I hope they are minor, cause this is my first baby and I don't know how it should feel, I think most of the time I can't even recognize them. Hopefully I can carry a few weeks longer with no problems, I have 46 days to go. We really need to focus on the baby's room. Just started putting down the subfloor,don't even have a door to that room. I am so eager to set up everything, the crib, gear...but it has to wait. My husband is working so hard at his businness, we have only Sundays for home improvements.

wentfor a checkup, everything is fine, I weigh 156 lbs , I cannot believe I have gained over 32 lbs, that's scary. I hope it will all come off. Next checkup in two weeks.

I had my baby shower!

My husband's sisters threw me a baby shower! It was a surprise and it took me about an hour to wake up from the shock. I never expected it, because in Czech, where I came from, showers are not common.It was only family and it was really lovely. We got stuff that we did not have,like if someone read my mind. I also got gift cards, so hopefully i can get the breast pump. Hura!

came back from my dr.app., measuring small(again), but I don't worry, I think I am measuring small, because the baby is head down and so low, but I gotta get an u/s tomorrow anyway. At least i get to see my little peanut.I also got my first internal.

went for the u/s, baby is so low that the technician could not do measurements of the head, estimated weight is 5.5 lbc, it is on the smaller side, so we will see.Getting a lot of contractions and it feels like the baby is ready just to slide out of me, i am guessing i will not carry for more than 2 weeks
