*39 Weeks*

As of today I am officially 39 weeks!! I have been so lucky to have a healthy pregnancy, however this last week we hit a little snag... Mid-pregnancy I had one appointment in which my blood pressure was slightly high. My doctor assured me that it was nothing to worry about. Anyway at my 38Th week appointment my blood pressure was a little higher then normal, but still nothing to worry about, but I also had a little bit of protein in my urine. So this last Thursday at my 39Th week appointment my feet were HUGE, my blood pressure was high and there was even more protein in my urine, so my doctor sent me to the hospital for tests. I had a blood test done, which came back fine and then they also had me do a 24 urine test. That was sure fun!! I got to save all my pee for 24 hours and I had to keep it cold. :) Anyway, the urine test came back fine as well, but if it wouldn't have I would have been induced today!!! I am glad I was not, I want the labor to start on its own. I will keep you all posted!!

TRANSFORMERS!!

Josh, Stephanie, Russell and I all went to see transformers on Wednesday and I LOVED it!!! I am glad I was able to go, but the sitting was horrible! My butt and back were killing me and my feet were HUGE!! I couldn't get the flip-flops on and off. But the movie was well worth it!

36 Weeks.


I am now 36 weeks, and man has it gone by fast!! I have been feeling great, the only thing I complain about is my swollen feet. I get indents on my feet from wearing flip flops!!!! I basically come home and put my feet up on a stack of pillows and hope that the swelling will go down, however it never has. I have been watching my salt intake and drinking water like its going out of style. At my last doctors appointment, my blood pressure was a little high but the doctor told me not to worry about it and that they would watch the next few appointments. Anyway I had a doctors appointment today and my blood pressure was fine. I am also measuring right on for 36 weeks and the baby is doing perfectly fine. Russell and I still have not agreed on a baby name but I am sure when he arrives we will find the perfect name! Here are two pictures that I have taken from the last week. This first picture on the right is me relaxing at work. The bottom picture is me at 36 weeks. You would think there were twins in there, but according to the doctor, there is only one. :)
