Had my doctor's appointment yesterday and walked away a little depressed. Turns out I'll have to have antibiotics in my IV when I got into labor because I tested positive for Group B Strep. Nothing life-threating since it lives in everyone but can cause the baby to get sick with pnemonia since their immune systems aren't up to par. I'm fine with that but one of the downfalls is that it could interfer with nursing. *sigh* I'm really trying to breastfeed but we'll see what happens. I also found out that I am still at 1 cenimeter dilated, 30% effacement and the baby was moved back up in my pelvis instead of down. *blank stare* Doggone it little boy, drop! I just knew I was dilating something serious this weekend but nope. The kid has moved back up in my stomach and refuses to come down. At this point, it's looking like I might end up having him on my due date of August 8 after all. My midwife said that they will not let me go past 41 weeks without inducing me (something else I want to avoid) so keep your fingers crossed for me.
I called K to come over last night because I was feeling a little down and didn't want to be alone. He came and I assume for the mountain of clothes and stuff he left, that he'll be back over tonight. I do recall him telling me that he was pretty much going to move in after this weekend anyway so that he's there for when Kendall comes. I'm really hoping this kid shows by my next appointment. I guess I feel a little envious of those who already had their babies. I am so ready to meet the little man that will change my life forever. I know it won't be easy but I'm just ready.
I stopped by two daycare centers yesterday and think I found a winner. I love the facility and the staff. The woman in charge is really great. I do want my mom and Big to go by at some point so that we can get everything in order. Definitely an exciting time.
Well, nothing else to report at this point. Just waiting on baby boy to get here. Fingers crossed!
