Well, I've already beaten the odds that one of my doctors gave me when she said she didn't think I'd make it to 32 weeks! Generally I'm feeling okay, although I've been extremely exhausted the past few days. I had a hard time getting to sleep last night because these babies are moving around so much - then I woke up with Larry at 6am and couldn't go back to sleep. Hopefully I will take a nap later on. Yesterday I was a little dizzy and felt a bit weird, but I think I just needed to eat and drink more. I felt better after a good nap ;)
However, those napping days are numbered, I know! I think at the outside these babies will be here in less than 5 weeks, which is just unbelievable! We've been waiting for this for so long, but now as it gets closer I have to admit we're freaking out a little. I think we'll feel better once the bathrooms are completed (nothing really new to report on that front - all the finish carpenters did last week was put up the beadboard, and the painting hasn't been done yet) and our house is nice and clean and organized.
Oh, and our car died on Saturday, the SUV. Larry thinks it's the alternator; it was towed to the service place this morning so hopefully it doesn't need too much work. But anyway, that doesn't help our feelings of being unprepared. I did finish the thank you notes from my shower, though, so as a reward to myself I have started going through all the amazing gifts we received! I've separated out all the clothing and blankets and today I'm going to take off all the tags to get them ready to be washed. I also ordered some drawer and closet organizers to make things easier to find, since the dresser drawers in the nursery are already practically full!
I have appointments tomorrow with the peri and with my OB's office, so hopefully everything is still stable and looking good. I have to say though that even if they allow me to increase my mobility, I've been so tired lately that I don't think I really would be able to take advantage of that. But I guess that comes with the territory :)
