Okay I am in total panic here. I had a prenatal apt today that lasted about an hour. I am 30 weeks and a day today. Because I have all kinds of problems, it has been decided the best course is for me to have an amino at 36 weeks to see if the babies lungs are developed. I have had one child born at 37 weeks who almost died because of lung development. The other problem is its far riskier for me to go into labor (I am having a c-section). Right now we are walking this tight rope. I pretty confident that I can hold on until 37 weeks but we know I will not go much longer then that before going into labor. There is no way I am prepared to have a baby 6 weeks from now...I need at least another 6 months.
Now I am in a panicky...stupid things are not done. I still need to get diaper covers / wraps because I am using cloth diapers. I do not want velcro and I do not want to buy new as I cannot afford $17.00 per wrap. If anyone knows of a cheap source please email me. I have looked in thrift stores etc. and only found two. Its hard for me to get out much now since I like to contract. So I am pretty much a homebody. Also I have not purchased the Amby Baby Hammock yet either.
Oh ya, my blood pressure is up. I have never had high blood pressure before. He said it was not necessarily high by his standards but its high for me. It was 125 /93. Anyone know what that means?
SIGH. Oh my darling daughter has turned yet again. I was pretty sure what I was feeling was her head and guess what it is her head under my ribcage which is where my broken rib is /was. It's healed but still sore. I swear she is head strong too because I try to move her off of my rib without much luck in fact I think she grinds in more.
