baby watch 2008

Now i seem to have alot of time on my hands so i thought i would blog for a bit. Steph the title is for you.
As some of you know already im on strict bedrest untill i deliver. I have pre eclampsia again which sucks. my blood pressure cant seem to stay down, it goes up even if i sit up in bed. My doctors partner wont deliver this week because he wants to wait until my doctor arrives back in town on monday. So now i just have to lay in bed, yeah right. i still do stuff but i have to like lay down for two to three hours then i can get up for like two hours then i have to lay down again. Bev and Glenn let me borrow their blood pressure cuff so now i can keep a close eye on it. I think its stupid for a doctor to put someone on bedrest when they are 38 weeks along. Anyways the baby will come either way next friday. Josh is so excited he cant wait, im now just ready to have it done. i have gained alot of weight this pregnancy so im anxious to loose it.its so hard to sit and do nothing expecially since i like to be active. so i see my doc on monday we will see what he says. either way i have 8 days left and then im done with this whole child bearing thing. I have to say i really dont like being pregnant but i love the results.

july update

hi everyone,
its getting closer and closer to when the baby will come. our scheduled date for the c-section is aug 1st. unless the baby decides otherwise. If you dont already know, we are going to be suprised with this one because doctors say there was never a confirmation on what we are having and that it could easily be a boy, now this is after i bought all girl things. Josh has been telling me all along its a boy, he keeps teasing me about it because he does not think we need to pack any girl items! We have packed both so we will see. I dont like not knowing what it is, i like being prepared as much as possible. Things are good here in Illinois, josh has been helping mom out alot on the house. he,s put in a patio, painted some and pretty much completely changrd the yard. it looks really nice! mom and dad are really happy.
Have a great week!
