Still Pregnant!

It has been over a week and I have been anxiously waiting to see if I go into labor. Nothing yet. I am still humongously pregnant. I get slower and more uncomfortable with every day! I have been going back and forth between corsicana and Mansfield trying to get Jeanne and George packed and moved out of Corsicana. Don't worry no lifting for me! I just sit in a chair and pack things. I get eric to move the boxes when I need more room for more boxes! So with no Internet in Corsicana which is AWFUL! I have not updated in a while. We have only come back up when we had doctors appointments or scouts or church. I did get called to teach Sunday school to the 14-16 yr olds. I think it is just that group. Sometimes they combine. I think he said I have about 10 kids!! I hope I can do it well! I have had a hard time relating to teenagers before.

I have been to the doctors a few times. I am dilating a little and effacing a little but not that much! And the doctor pressured me to set a C-section for Friday. I did but I have had a blessing since then and I have prayed and fasted (I was promised that I could fast and do it safely from the blessing) and I am going to move the C-section to monday or tuesday. I think I am going to go into labor on Friday.

I have had some contractions but they are just fake, and I did lose my mucus plug Saturday! well some on Sunday too. So I think that means that I have dilated and effaced enough for it to just fall out. That does not mean I will go into labor anytime soon though! AWW MAN! Yeah I looked it up and women lose their mucus plug anytime from three weeks before labor to not until the water breaks or the second pushing phase!

So today I am going to go register Caleb for pre-school. I have been such a slacker! They start next week and I have not done it yet! And then I am going to go to CVS and Kroger. Maybe walmart. I might also go with Mom and my sis's for a little road trip. And then I have a doctors appointment today at 3:45 for a non-stress test. I am going to change my c-section date as well.

Hang in there, Jen! I'm sure everything will go well. You'll be a free woman soon (well, aside from those pesky 3AM feedings)! =)

I need daily updates now! I'm axiously waiting, too! Good luck! I hope you don't have to endure a c-section. Recovery is more difficult.
