Ben and I got our MacBook today. Totally cool! I love it!




I have so much to tell you, LiveJournal!

It is possible I could be coming down with Preeclampsia. My blood pressure has been high, I've been swollen, and recent lab results said one of my liver functions was elevated. On Wednesday they took another lab and told me that if the results were any worse they were going to take the baby that very night. The good news is (and yes, I had to convince myself it was indeed good news) the results were actually better, so Adry is still hangin' IN there where he belongs, even if my body doesn't quite agree. My doc says we need to atLEAST try and make it to 38 weeks- full term.




All in all I've been feeling like crap. It's true. Every movement I make is seriously painful. Like suck-in-my-breath painful. That stinkin' Sciatic nerve gets pinched all the time, but the MOST painful thing of all is the pelvic/pubic bone pains. When I lay down it takes me like a full minute to turn from my back to my side, or from side to side because it hurts so bad I have to move very slowly. Also, I HATE going from sitting or laying to standing because every step shoots pain throughout my body. And let's just forget about bending down- it's pretty much an impossibility now.

The good news is I am SO ready for this baby!!! I have everything I really need! My mother-in-law stopped by today and gave me my crib mattress, Winnie the Pooh window curtains, a rocking chair, and like 10 packs of diapers and 3 packs of wipes. Now I feel like everything is complete and what the heck else are you waiting for, Adry?? Oh, for your lungs to mature? lungs shmungs! I never did get the chance to mop and vacuum the floors, but at this point I don't think that is something I am able to do. I'm supposed to be staying off my feet as much as possible-- both the doc. and my body are making that quite clear. If my doc gave me the OK, then my pelvis would surely object. If I am extremely lucky I might be able to talk Ben into doing it for me...
....anyone wanna come over and clean my floors? $10? $20? I'm being mostly serious! I can barely move and clean floors would be very refreshing!

*BY THE WAY* My brother said he was going to be doing a frequent picture post update in his blog when I go into labor: http://acgloserpunk.blogspot.com/

Well, you should be hearing from me more now that I have my Mac. Woohoooo! :-) But I am out for now...
