Okay, so it's been a while since I posted I know. Where have I been? I don't think anyone really checks this on a daily basis or anything but in case you were wondering. We thought we might have been having some troubles with the babe when I started having contractions at 34 weeks. Well, good news! No dilation, no effacement, no nothing, so that's a good end to a bad night. I had another ultrasound on Tuesday which confirmed that yes, this baby inside me is most definitely a boy. Definitely. So, after hearing that I was a little relieved and less worried about what I was going to do with all of those boy things when I knew this baby was going to come out a girl. Oh, and the ultrasound also told us that my son is breech, and then my doctor told me, based on that ultrasound that there is a good chance that I'll be having a c-section instead of the natural birth that I wanted so badly (seriously..). Now, onto other things.
First, where is shenuts? The Sarcastic Journalist? It's been a couple of weeks since I checked out my reading list and she is just not on her website? I love that blog it always makes my day a little brighter to read something funny and she never fails to fill that. Second, OMSH, is definitely on my favorites from my reading list now. Such good things going on over there. You should definitely check it out. Also, on the subject of other bloggers, I am always looking for new blogs to add to my reading list, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. More writing tomorrow. =]
I was reading through a list of blogs that I love. Including the likes of Sarcastic Journalist, and Oh My Stinkin' Heck. I love reading these blogs of women who have young children and seeing the things that they go through on a day to day basis. And I love the way that they take everything that happens, from urine in the carpets to their children beating each other, with such lightheartedness and laughing humor. I'm pregnant with my first child and I'm wondering if I'll be able to take things as lightly. I want to be a good mother and I think that I will be. I just don't know that I can smile when I've just been creamed in the face with rice cereal. I truly hope that I can, but as I was reading today, I just thought that I would like to commend these extraordinary women who make my days roll by a little faster, by giving me humor in my day (I can see the humor in it...when it happens to someone else =] ).
My son is due, I've just realized in just over 60 days. I'm a wreck. I don't have anything done. My stomach hurts, there's tons of pressure in there and I don't know what's going on. But, I do have a baby shower coming up on Saturday, after which I can start preparing things for my new arrival. I'm ecstatic =]. I really am excited for June to get here so I can hold my little boy, even if that involves the 26 hours of pain that it involved for me to get here. Of course, I'm human. I'm praying for a 6 hour labor complete with only 20 minutes of pushing and I want to bring home a baby who will immediately sleep through the night. What can I say? I'm an optimist.
I do realize that this was probably the most random blog post that you've ever read. Nothing really happened today, so I didn't have anything to talk about, but I figured I would give you a little bit of insight into the things that I think about, and what makes the wheels in my head start rolling. I promise that I will have something better to say/talk about the next time that I update this blog. In the meantime, I am looking for a community where people will appreciate my sense of humor and my outlook on things, I would like to see people read this and think about the things that I think about. I love feed back =]
