Yep! Contractions are btwn 3 to 5 mins apart and they hurt like a bitch! Just walking around right now which is awesome. I have to do my hair and shave my lady bits. Maybe I should not blog and get right on that!

38 weeks or 39 weeks?
Who knows, but my contractions are still around...now I'm also having Sharp pains down there like its trying to rip its way out. None of this I experienced with S!
So more bad news after the last post, I got into a car accident which totalled the car that I so loved! Almost broke my hand...still hurts and is swollen and all this happened on husband's birthday. Basicaly some asshole ran the red light and I hit him! Thank God b/c otherwise he would've hit S' side. airbag went off and everything so now off to look for another car. This is definitely not the way things should go but I will stay positive b/c it will be ok! But as positive as I may be, things will always go wrong! S got the croup not long after the accident...we took her to the emergency pediatrics place and were told her fever was 103! Never before has she been that high and when we heard that, we were scared(in reality it was 103.9 which her doctor told me days later). She got a steroid shot for the inflammation and motrin for the fever which was a godsend. She slept a little bit better that night but not me! She's been on steroids and antibiotics for a possible ear infection. I must say today she is much better. Thank God.
Right now we are patiently waiting for thing 2 to arrive. I'm guessing I still have a couple more weeks so just gonna spend my day majorly cleaning the house for its arrival. S cannot contain her excitement! She is going to be the best big sister. Not much else to report so now its time for bed!

The last leg (I guess)
I have all my appts scheduled out for the next 4 weeks. Its nice that I get to go every week now... means that time is getting near! I have sort of packed my bag, which I really should finish since it feels like this baby wants to fly out of me. Lots of contractions still, which are not painful at all but they do stop me on my tracks b/c of the pressure. S is getting more and more excited! She greets the baby every morning and she's just so in love without even knowing this little person yet...I wonder how long that will last. lol
Speaking of S, she has been extremely good about sleeping in her own bed...me on the other hand, I can't handle it. Every noise I hear in the monitor keeps me awake and I just can't get a good night's sleep! On the weekends she sleeps with me b/c it just helps me get a little more rest. She talks, smacks her lips, wrestles herself and all kinds of other things in her sleep so all that I HEAR CLEARLY! And I also hear everything the dogs do, so double the pleasure I guess. There is really no way for me to get good sleep as it is since I usually stay up until around midnight or later just to make sure that Lucy has gone out enough times to pee and handle her potty business. I dont know if she's getting worse or better but she is again on her prescription food for bladder stones but refuses to eat it. I tried everything to get her to eat it, and nothing works! She loved it for two or three meals but after that lost interest. I finally read that most dogs hate the food and wont follow the plan, SOOO not what I wanted to hear. She needs it to get better and without the food then it would be surgery! Hell to the no! Today I went to the grocery store and bought some alpo or pedigree canned food just to mix it with it and see if it works. She ate it, hopefully she will eat it again for the next two weeks. HOPEFULLY. I need her to get better. I feel so bad. Well its getting to that time, maybe I will sleep quickly!

Almost there!
Well not really...I had my 36 week appt today and it was nice and fast! I LIKE that. Did the group b strep test (on myself since they like to keep intervention to a minimum) then had blood drawn. Baby measured good which probably means at 36 weeks and heartbeat was pretty awesome! My weight today was 146 which honestly seems a little low to me considering I was hitting the 160lbs mark with S by now. It's crazy to think that in a few weeks we all get to meet the new little one.
Aside from that...we had our baby shower on Sunday and it was perfect! At least the moments when the husband wasn't pissing me off! We felt very loved and S probably got just as much as the baby lol. I've also been having contractions for about 5.days...nothing painful, just a little annoying. This pregnancy is definitely not like the first. The only thing that is the same is that a baby will come out of me at some point!
On another note S has been sleeping in her room by request a little after school started. She loves it! I don't since I feel the need to go and check on her with every noise she makes! So basically I haven't slept in about a week....oh well. Well speaking of which, its time for me to go to sleep. Good night.
