Alright so here we are in the 3rd Trimester!! WOO HOO!! I know, I know I can't believe it either! My appt today was, as usual, normal. Wasn't able to get in with the midwife I was scheduled for for the 3 rd month in a row...so got to see yet ANOTHER midwife. These are ALL nice women, it's just that sometimes you want to see the person that started your care, ya know? Anywho... got my lab results back. I am anemic..and I am borderline for gestational diabetes. She said that anything 135 or over you are considered to have it...mine was 134. Personally I think it had to do with the fact that I waited there forever and a day to get my labs done (they forgot to put them in the system..how nice) anyway she said to just watch my sweets and all that...that won't be happening! Who can deny chocolate???? Also, it was brought up again that I didn't numb the last time, so she had me meet with the anesthesiologist. Nice guy, just didn't take me seriously. Said it was probably pulling and tugging that is normal during c-section. I told him that I knew what that felt like because of Kayla and that what I was feeling was NOT pulling and tugging and that my main fear is that they will do like last time and not do anything till the Dr. yells at them to do it. He said no that he wouldn't be like that, and that he thinks it was a once in a life time thing. Yeah that I got that experiance, but I am still scared thinking it can happen again. I haven't fully numbed with ANY of my labors...so why would the 5th be different? He also was so kind as to keep mentioning every 5 minutes that I hadn't really gained any weight and that was a plus. I wanted to hug the man every time he said it! Though I did notice he said it so much that the midwife kept looking at my weights in my record!!lol!

So we go back in 3 weeks so that I can meet the surgeon. We decided that we will just keep going to the surgeon as that is who will be delivering anyway (well whoever is on call that is).

Baby sounded great with a heartrate of 161! It was kinda funny cause there was a student in there and she was the one that was checking and everytime she would get it, he would move...feisty little guy that's for sure!

As for Jamie and being here..we are pretty positive that he will be. We still are waiting for the ok from the Col. They start leaving in Oct...right around when I am 37 weeks, so we are hoping with it being so close and me usually going early that they will ok it.

Other than that all is well, the older kids will be starting their fall sports next month and that should keep us busy till Nov. To think that at some point between when they start sports and when the end them there will be a new baby in the house! (Mom, that's where you will become the official chaufer!)

Ok well the book has been written, so tata for now..until next time

Love
