Sick--- tired and READY
Well, with only ten days left I am SO ready to have this baby! A day or so after going to the Doctor last week I developed a sinus infecting so I was very anxious to go to the Doctor today to ask for a prescription, I told him my symptoms and ended with "I KNOW that this is a sinus infection and I want to be better before this baby comes." I was secretly hoping for a bottle of amoxicilion (i dont know the spelling), but he does even better and gives me a Z-pack- YEAH. I am looking forward to feeling much better in the days to come.
The second thing I want to talk to my doctor about are these crazy leg cramps that I am getting every night, in fact my legs are so sore and fatigued that they feel heavy to even drag into the next room. I did not experience leg cramps with my other pregnancies so I was a bit concerned. After he looks over my legs he decides that I should go get an ultrasound on my leg to make sure that it is not a blood clot- are you kidding me. I try to talk him out of it saying that I am sure that it is nothing, and he agrees that it might not be anything but thinks it is the best to rule out a blood clot. I went in at 1:30 and there is no blood clot- Yeah again!!!
I did not talk to my doctor about this one but I am going to share another first with this pregnancy- HEART BURN. In fact I have never had heart burn EVER before. And it better not stick around after she is delivered. And I have only had it for about a two weeks- however, I do not enjoy it and it seems to be getting worse.
Did I mention that I am READY to have this baby so that I can walk around my house without sharp pains in my crotch and hips, stop the leg cramps and the fatigue and heavy legs, eat with out dreading the burning sensation in my chest, and so I can hold our new baby girl.
Thanks for reading :)

You poor girl, I hope this next ten days fly for you and all goes back to normal for you. Thanks for the update I was wondering!
I hope the venting helps. It is nice to just get it off your chest and complain for a minute. I am always here to listen to you!
Complain, complain! (Ha my favorite thing to do. Actually I tend to wish others knew how it hurt. I like to deminstrate with the right pressure so others feel the pain.) I hate heartburn! I had it more when I was prego. Oh and leg cramps, fatigue; all knock you down symptoms. Soon it will be fatigue and worry. Those little ones I tend to worry more about. Good luck. We excited for you to have another cutie.
You sound absolutely miserable!!! Hope that things go better soon.
I always get the leg cramps, but they were the worst with my first pregnancy. I think I scared Chris pretty bad the first time I jumped out of bed screaming in the middle of the night. Flexing my muscles brought them on. I kind of learned how to avoid getting them as frequently with my other pregnancies. I'm glad you are so close, and I am excited to see pictures of your little sweety!
So pretty much you are miserable right! I fill so bad for you. I never did have heart burn, but I still remember feeling so miserable I would do anything to have it over with. It is coming soon. Hang in there. It will so be worth it when she gets here. I just wish we were close, so I could help you.
About the vinyl stuff. . . Everything we were thinking about doing with you they provided us with at our training. So that is out the window now. If we need more though i will contact you.
I am sorry.... that is no fun, but it will be over soon! I can't wait to see your cute little one! I had horrible leg cramps too! They went for the last 3 months of my pregnancy, and didn't allow me much sleep at all, but thank heaven they went away the day Kaiya was born! So I hope that is the same for you!
Three more days! Can't wait to see pictures of her.
