30 weeks!

Okay so...
I had another prenatal today!
I am darn near almost 30 weeks!!

Bloodpressure was perfect.
Im measuring right on target.
Heartbeat was greeeeat!

I was weighed again and thus far I have only gained 10lbs for the entire pregnancy.

He brought up thee subject of pain management during labor.
He said he wanted me to know that he would have absolutely no problem ordering me up an epidural anytime that I wanted it.
When I told him about Lijies labor and delivery he said...
"You did it natural? WHY?"
When he found out I had pushed for 3.5 hours without any pain meds he said.."Well thats just ridiculous!!!"
(I laughed at him.)

He said.."Look it...seriously...(in his lovely african accent that I OH SO LOVE!!!) I don't give out medals for women who suffer through pain. I really recommend the epidural...ok?"

Launi was with me and he says..."OOH she's having the epidural this time. Even though she did really well (thank you bunches..) I thought that natural stuff was crap!!"

So...it looks like Im going to have thee epidural.

Everything else has been fairly "normal". I can't sleep at night and its driving me insane. If I happen to fall asleep before 4:00am , then I doze in 20 min cycles and Im up usually 6+ times a night to pee. *UGD*

Im getting rather huge. Though Im deffinately not as big this time..as I was with Lijie. Everything is getting squished though...and I can feel that. My stomach is always eiher up or down. Im hungry to the point of starvation...or Im slightly nauseaous, uncomfortable, and full of heartburn or Gas. So attractive.....
I feel like Ive completley run out of room for this baby and there is still 10 weeks left.

I go for another ultrasound in 5 weeks. :)

The epidural was almost the favorite part of my pregnancy/delivery!!! Actually, based on the kids' behavior this afternoon, I'd say it's my favorite part of child-rearing! hee hee

It's not bad; it's a good thing. Honest!!!

Not much longer chickie. Hang in there!!!!
