Wednesday

Had...

another Dr.'s appointment yesterday and all went well! I am pretty relieved that they are more often now because more things are happening that I'm like..."Um...is that normal?!?" My doctor is hilarious. The first time Jeremy met him he thought he was on speed - the guy really goes 100 mph! I'm used to it now but it's funny. He's got a dry sense of humor but if you catch on to it he's pretty funny. He saw the baby do one of his sommersaults while he was trying to find the heartbeat and commented on how alien like it was - the whole time I'm looking at Jer going "SEE!" I have said it's been alienish since the beginning - and that's not a bad thing! It's just what it reminds me of right now. I talked to him about the contractions and he was quite reassuring. He thinks I'm getting more because I'm farther along as well, but also the dehydration is playing into it. He said though that he doesn't want me to completely eliminate things like soda or chocolate because it's not necessary - they aren't as dehydrating as I thought they were. My weight is right on target and I have no swelling yet, so no need to watch salt consumption yet either. He also said he is no longer worried about the baby's survival at this point, though if labor were to start they would still try to stop it. After 34 weeks, though, he said he may try to stop it but he would probably just let it go because I've had zero complications thus far. Praise God! So all of that was good news and I go back in 2 weeks. After that starts the every week visit and we're that much closer to meeting this precious baby!!

Had my first baby dream but it wasn't a good one. He was a cutie alright, but very sick and both of us were throwing up. What in the world does that mean??

Okay, I try to not usually comment on things like this on this page, but did you watch AMERICAN IDOL tonight? Avid fan here - and I unfortunately had to miss the show tonight but found out online that CONSTANTINE WAS VOTED OFF?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!??!!?!??!!? Are we joking here?!?!?!?!?!?!?? I am officially going to have to make my opinion known in many more votes from now on because this is getting ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, enough. :) TTFN!

What a doc you have!!! Keeps things interesting. At least he agrees about the baby's movements and could actually see what you experience everyday. Saw Jace tonight and he is almost as cute as your baby will be. Love you all D&D
