33 weeks!

I had a check up yesterday. Technically 32 weeks then but today I'm 33 weeks. Things look good. I've still been having the Braxton Hicks... oh so annoying. They are getting a little bit stronger but if I'm sitting and just breathing I'm good. The baby has been pushing on my cervix more and more so that's been kind of uncomfortable. The dr. said I'd notice it more this time since its my second go around. Its usually not too bad but I had a pretty sharp one yesterday and made me kind of bend over in pain. Yeah. So never doing an all natural birth.

So I'm still measuring big. The dr. double checked my test results to make sure I didn't have gestational diabetes. He did inform me that he would be out of town from Feb 1st to the 11th so he told me I can't have my baby then. He told me not to do anything and to be careful so I don't go into labor that first week and a half. He said he'd induce me before he left if it wasn't too early but that he probably would when he's back if I haven't delivered yet. So my guess is I might go a week early unless the baby and my body have other plans. Its making it more real and I'm getting so excited. I can't wait to see our little Jackson.  I still need to take tabs on clothes and make sure I have what I need. I think I'm set but I gotta double check. There are some other little things I need to stock up on and get the room cleared out in the next couple weeks. I didn't think I'd be so excited. I expected to be more nervous but I'm not at all. I think now that my parent's are so close I feel a little more at ease if I have to have a c-section or if he has jaundice and I have to take him to the hospital each day for blood tests. At least I don't have to take Charlotte far.

So I go back in two more weeks and I guess we'll see what update I have then!
