Nursery Pictures and Baby News










I still have not figured out how to add pictures any other way but in one huge clump, but these are pictures of my nursery! (also as you probably noticed I don't know how to rotate them either...) And I have to say it doesn't do it justice, it's so much cuter in real life! But I pretty much love my nursery. The quilt that's in the crib has the fabric I picked out for the bedding I am maybe going to make for the crib (I was always planning on making it but now I feel too lazy so we'll see if that really happens), but my Aunt Barbara was nice enough to at least make the quilt for me! Isn't it just adorable? Again, picture doesn't do it justice...and the cool picture frame I took a picture of, I am planning on putting a cute picture of Hadi and Olli in there! They are just going to be the best of friends :) maybe.
But anyways, enough about my nursery. I'm starting to get more swollen with each day, my ankles look like obese-person ankles! And my face is a lot fuller than usual. AND I think my arms are fatter, yuck. So I am excited so get this baby out and this swelling down! As far as when the baby will come, it will either be this week or next. On Friday I went in for my twice-weekly non stress test, which usually takes 20 minutes, but oh no not this one!! They left me in there for 45 minutes until the nurse finally came in!! She said the baby had had a deceleration (of her heart rate, don't know what that means...) and she wasn't worried but just wanted to watch for another couple minutes. Little did I know that a couple minutes in nurse-time means at least a half hour of no one telling you what's going on! So I ended up being in there for almost an hour and a half and I was not a happy camper. Well it turns out they were trying to get my doctor to come look at my test results and he happened to be in a C-section at the time so they called him out of it! It was weird, I could hear them talking about him and trying to get him to come up, but I assumed it was for another patient. When he did come up the nurse was showing him something and then I heard him call out my name! I panicked a little bit and thought "was all that for me? why did they call him out of a freakin c-section to see something the nurse said she wasn't worried about??" Anyway, he came in, said he wasn't worried about it but that if I was planning on learning how to knit I'd better do it in the next couple of days....which I interpreted to possibly mean on Tuesday when I went in for my next appointment he'd schedule my induction. But who knows! I'm still holding out til next week! But I go in tomorrow, and we'll see what he says. If no induction this week, then when I go in next Tuesday we will schedule it for that week sometime. It's so weird to think I'll probably have a baby by next weekend!!  Whoa. Am I ready for this? Heck no. But I'm excited! And I know this is such a girl thing (my dad made fun of me for this) but I have the cutest little outfit for her to come home in! I just hope she fits! I don't know what to expect about her size, I was told if I went full-term she'd be a 9-10 lb baby, so I'm thinking around the 6 or 7 lb range if she comes before next weekend? Not sure...but I will take plenty of pictures of my new baby girl for everyone to see! Oh, and I had a 3D ultrasound a couple weeks ago and she is a fatso! Her cheeks are so chubby! And I'm happy about that, I want her to be a healthy baby. And who doesn't love chubby baby cheeks? Come on now. I would put a picture of it up but there is no scanner in this household I am currently residing in....which brings me to another point, I miss my husband! And I hate not being able to be in my apartment getting it ready for the baby to come. I am excited to get back to normal life. Not that I haven't enjoyed spending more time with my family! I sure love them, and we are moving in the summer (still don't know where) so I should take advantage of this...but it's hard not being at home with my husband.
Well anyways, I guess that's all for now. This didn't take up nearly as much time as I would have liked...I will probably go eat some jello now, because I love jello and there is some in the fridge just waiting for me to eat it.
The end.
