Check up today - 33 weeks and counting! - and all is well. The test I had done last time came back negative, which is good and means that I have a 90% chance of NOT going pre term! Yeay! Thats a relief and I feel much better about it. The only down side of todays visit was that I had to see this lady who is just helping out in the office - shes a CNM but has been out of the scene for a few years and has no idea really of whats going on. Shes introduced herself to me 3 times now and all 3 times I just play along. - but she hasn't been able to answer any of my questions. So I don't ask her. She take the vitals, checks the heart beat, measures me and off I go. I should say too that this is fine, I don't really care, but I wold prefer to see one of the other girls that I have gotten to know rather than this lady - who I might add is just helping in the office, so she won't be there during delivery. Over all does it really matter? No, as long as she can tell me that everything is fine, read to me the results of the test - all of which she did - and send me on my way to say 'see you in 2 weeks' I'm fine w/ that. No harm done.
Kaia is getting bigger and bigger - I'm afraid that this little baby is really going to to rock her world, and no in a good way! Shes seemed to be a little more needy that last few days. She must know that somethings going on and about to happen. That or shes just wanting to enjoy her mommy before she has to share me! I think shes going to be a great big sister - maybe not @ first - but after things settle down and we get into a routine of sorts I think shes going to be great. Her new thing this week w/ her babies is taking their clothes off. I don't know! She doesn't want to take her own clothes off - thank goodness! - just the babies and then will need 'elp' to put them back on. And once they are back on she asks for 'elp' to take them off again. Maybe this means she'll be very helpful to me w/ getting Olivia dressed and undressed! hehe We'll see.
Its been great to have Mark home and to know that there isn't any more trips planed where he will be leaving for the next couple of months anyway. The only next big things we have coming up is a wedding - and thats weird for me b/c when I look @ the invite for it, I have to remember that we'll have 2 kids by that point, and I won't be pregnant, and our whole life will be completely different than it is when I'm looking @ the invite. Kaia is also invited to a birthday party - her first birthday party invite! how exciting! - of one of her friends and I think the same thing then too. What will life really be like on that day? How will wed do it? Will I be the one to take her, will Mark take her? Will we all go? I don't know . . . . its a lot to take in @ times, kind of like when we were expecting Kaia. I had no idea how our life would change, I just knew it would be different. And for those first couple of weeks I only remember bits and pieces of it - my hope this time is I'll remember something! hehe
Oh, and just one last thing - the bag is almost finished, just have to find something for little Olivia to wear home, and waiting on some things from amazon to get here and I think we'll be done! Yeay for me!
