November 14, 2000

I am so tired and I really need to go to bed. It's been a busy couple of days here. Instead of relaxing on Sunday, we had to deal with Sidney puking all day, a total of 10 times!! Something got her sick, poor thing. We almost took her to urgent care, but she fell asleep, so we just let her sleep. Monday she woke feeling better, but since then we've been dealing with diarrhea, and a sore tushie. I hope she starts feeling better soon, it's so hard when they don't feel good.

Myself, I haven't caught her bug (knock on wood!!) but I sure am feeling like it. I'm in my 34th week and so ready for this baby. I'm at that miserable part of pregnancy, where everyone is tired of you whining all the time, I don't get much sympathy anymore! The contractions are really getting to me too. I'm still taking Terbutaline, but I get to stop it next Thursday. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I'll go into labor shortly after (I'm hoping for Dec 1 actually). I got an ultrasound last week, everything looks fine. Baby measured at 32 1/2 weeks, weighing approximately 3 pounds, 12 ounces. It's still a boy too, so we better get serious about this name thing. My fluid looked OK, he said it measured 16 ... whatever that means, but good for now. They may check one more time probably around 36 to 37 weeks to measure it again (that was why Sidney was induced early ... I had very low fluid).

Well, I should go, I really need to get some sleep (still trying to catch up from Sunday morning when Sidney woke me by puking on my pillow ... right where I was laying!!!!). Have a good week and happy nursing :)
