#3 36 Weeks

I made it, 36 weeks was my goal! And he is fully flipped! I was feeling great until last Wednesday when I came down with the stomach flu. I could not keep anything now and actually got sent home from work. I was getting sick most of the morning and then slept the rest of the day. The stomach flu is awful any time you get it, but being pregnant was a thousand times worse. I would of cut off my left hand to make it stop. After loading up on medications, I finally got some rest. Thank goodness it was a day that I had to work, so my mom was here to watch the boys. After losing weight and not eating for 24 hours I finally felt better the next morning and just missed being admitted to the hospital. Wow, it was horrible. The next day we had family pictures scheduled. As a mom, what do you do when you had the flu the day before….you suck it up and put make up on and get it done. We got some great shots as a family of four one last time and of my belly. Excited to get all the pictures in a few weeks. #3 is doing great. He is right around 6-7 lbs with a healthy heartbeat. He is head down. I had a doctor appointment this week and I found out I am 3cm dilated and 75% effaced with my cervix already turned anterior. So I am already DONE with the 1st phase of labor! So when it happens, lets hope it happens fast. Well not that fast, because Tom has a 45 min drive home and then we have a 30 min drive to the hospital. I hope to just go into labor while I am at work one day! The boys will be with my mom and Tom can come straight from work!!! Fingers Crossed! I am so ready to have him, only because it is so uncomfortable chasing the boys around and getting up and down! Lots of pressure and tightness along with off and on contractions through out the day! But we shall see, its all up to him now!!! Next appointment is on July 1st! (No pictures of Mr. Man, because the next view we will get of him is after he is born!!!!!)
