I went to the O/B today for my 31 week checkup. All was fine-I measured in at 32 CM, BP was great, baby's heartbeat was right on the mark,I mentioned I wondered how much he weighed. He moved my stomach around, said he didn't feel like he was packed in there like a bunch of sardines, but felt likea small baby , maybe estimated to be about a 6/7 pound baby-which seemed about right I guess as Thomas was 7 pounds 6 oz when he was born..and my neighbor Pam keeps telling me to grow a belly already for the baby already! LOL We talked about My planned cesarian, and how everything lopks great with the babyhow he scored a perfect mark with last weeks fetal monitoring , , I'm so glad things are going so well- I'm just waiting for SOMTHING to go wrong- but should just count my lucky starsI guess! He asked me if I had any concerns or worries, and I said I guess not at this time, but now that I've had the rest of the day to think about it..I've found a couple of things to worry about now!..I've found
I worry about having another c-section with epidural this time-and this one I'm going to be totally awake for it and witness everything- I was totally drugged and passed out and missed my whole delivery with Thomas-am I gonna freak ? I 'm worried about getting my tubes tied - are there gonna be complications or will it go smoothly? will I remember everything about taking care of this baby or will I spaz out? willTom EVER move out of the computer room and paint it and put new rug down and transform it into the babys room in due time like he's supposed to or wait until the baby's born and have him sleep in the pack n play for a few weeks like he keeps projecting because he doesnt wanna move his monster of a desk out and rewire everything? so basically I'm just stressing over everything basically! Ahh well, I suppose it's just natural to start to worry as the wekks and days draw nearer.. I guess its all part of the "nesting " phase" nesting " - who thought of that word anyway? What am I ? a bird? Couldn't there be some other word to go by? other than that? Ahh well.. I'm just wiggin hoping everything comes together in time.Don't mind me...

When you have a second baby it just all comes back to you, and its much easier. When I was preggo with my second, I kept thinking I dont remember how to take care of a newborn. But I remembered the second he was born! Hope your C-sections goes well, I think its kinda neat to be awake for it!
