BUSY DAY

Yesterday was full of appointments. Cari came over and watched Ryan all day. Thank goodness, otherwise Steve was going to have to take the day off. It started with my regular OB at 9:15 in Enfield. My BP was good and I GAINED NO WEIGHT from previous appt 2 1/2 weeks ago! YEAH! Sounds like no big deal to have not gained in 2 weeks but as we all know the baby is gaining a half a lb a week now. So no weight gain in the last month of the 3rd trimester is damn miracle to me! (Foohey on you no teeth girl). The docs said I just have to make it till Monday without going into labor. If its before Monday, they will send me to Hartford Hosp (gasp!) high risk, and try and stop the labor. If its after Monday I will be 36 weeks and they wont stop it and I can go to Johnson. Im sure it wont be before Monday. For some strange reason I think it will be the week of March 17th. Maybe a St Pats baby!
Anyway, Then from Enfield onto my NST in Hartford. Baby girl was SIDEWAYS this time. Head on the left, feet up over my belly button on the right. So they could not get an accurate measurement of fluid due to her position. Her being transverse doesnt pose any problems since im having a C section, its just awfully uncomfortable. I have a big ultrasound next week so hopefully she will have turned by then. Baby appointments were now done for the day and it was off to my root canal. Yup, I survived. Suzie let me borrow her ipod which I think saved my sanity from not having to hear that drill or what they were saying above me. Zachary has an ipod, but frankly some his music scares me more than a root canal. Anyway, it was no picnic for sure, but I did ok. And I did it without meds! Knowing how much anxiety I had over it, they had given me Valium to take and cleared it with my OB, but I decided not to take it and still lived. The whole tooth thing is still not over, even after $530. 00 out of pocket I paid yesterday! (Just what I needed before im out of work). I have to go to my dentist in 5-6 weeks to get the temporary cap off and the real on put on. What a pain in my ass! I just want it to be done with!
