So last week was my last week at work pre-baby. I have to say it was my hardest one as my back has been hurting quite a lot. I'm usually fine in the morning, but there is this one spot on the middle/right side of my spine that hurts towards the end of the day. They've been so supportive at work -- letting me work from home 2 days a week in April, giving me a laptop, letting me come in late/leave early, letting me take the occasional taxi home, and presenting me with flowers on my way out.
I had a midwife appt on Wed last week to. She confirmed that the head was down, but was not engaged yet. So unless that changes, she could be coming later!
Last night was the first night of disturbed sleep. I woke up at 4am and couldnt sleep. Felt a bit hungry and my knee/thigh was feeling cramped so I decided to walk up the road to the quickie mart to grab some bread at 6am. They were closed, so I came home and ate some frozen food and listened to a podcast on my ipod. Then went to bed around 630am till 9:45am. Nice. So blessed to not have had this issue when I was working!
So my last week? Mainly getting together with friends and returning/buying some last minute things. I have an appt with the OB & Endocrynologist on Wed AM. Hopefully her head will be engaged, we'll see. If 8 May comes and she isnt here, we'll likely wait the 10 days and then begin discussing options to induce labor on days 10-14 after. Hopefully she decides to show early, as Peter's mom is scheduled to arrive on 11 May.
That's all from our end of the world.
