Week 30

I went in for my week 30 check up last Friday.  Everything is going well with the baby and right on track.  The heartbeat sounds great and my belly measures at 29 cm. 
Thursday night I started feeling some contractions.  They weren't really strong, but were definitely noticeable.  They lasted for about 20-30 seconds and came every four minutes.  This went on all night long.  I tried moving into different positions and walking around, but nothing seemed to work.  I didn't think it was worth calling the doctor about since the pain wasn't very bad.  I figured I would just bring it up at my appointment the next day. 
When I mentioned this to the doctor, she said that it could be a sign of a few things or sometimes these things happen in second pregnancies.  I do know that one of the side effects of Zofran is one of the things that she listed...so maybe that's what it is.  The contractions only appeared Friday and Saturday. 
Since I'm getting bigger, I've started to get a little uncomfortable and I'm having trouble sleeping.  I've been really exhausted lately and also seems like the baby is laying right on my bladder...so I'm up several times going to the bathroom. 
I saw this shirt the other day.  It said, "Pregnancy glow my ass...I'm just trying not to hurl."  I thought it was funny.  That would pretty much describe me...I don't feel like glowing.  I'm still taking a half a pill of Zofran every day. 
I'm also starting to get the craving for ice again.  So far it's not as bad as last time.  I'm taking an iron pill...hopefully that will help. 
I cannot fit into my winter coat anymore.  The zipper just won't go past my belly.  I had to run to the maternity store last night and buy a winter coat. 
My next appointment is in two weeks and our c-section is now scheduled.  Maybe the baby will decide to come before that date though.  Yikes.  Emmy arrived a week early. 
We have decided to keep Emmy in her own room when the baby comes.  We thought that they could maybe share a room.  With further thought - this will not work out well.  Emmy is such a light sleeper. 
Brad's office will be moved to the lower level.  Since this is the new plan...we have a bunch of work to do before the baby comes.  Brad seems to think we'll get it all done in one week.
