36 weeks.

36 weeks!

It's definitely been a crazy couple weeks with at least 4 appointments a week.
Luckily our little one has passed each ultrasound/non stress test with flying colors!
Tomorrow is a big day for us. I have a ultrasound with my high risk doctor who will be measuring every part of her (like he did 2 weeks ago) and if she has not really grown and is still measuring small. I will be induced.
My doctor said probably Thursday. 
This is the exact same thing that happened with Olivia who was born at just over 37 weeks.
Part of me is like please be ready to be born baby because I am so done being pregnant and so ready to meet her. But another part of me wants to make sure she stays in there as long as possible so that she is born completely healthy.
But I guess we'll find out tomorrow, so stay tuned!

Just a few symptoms I want to document:

*Still sicker than a dog. What would I do without zofran? Um probably die ha. Just kidding but seriously!

* Heartburn. Never have had this before but it definitely is not fun. I've heard that the more heartburn you have the more hair your baby has! Ha. We'll find out if that's true soon.

*My sciatic nerve is killing me. Some nights I wake up to go to the bathroom or to check on Olivia and it literally takes me ten minutes just to get from my bed to the toilet. I really wonder if I'm going to be permanently paralyzed or something. If you've experienced this you know what I'm talking about.

*My bladder is completely out of control. Yes, I pee my pants all the time. In fact, just this last Sunday as I was taking Olivia out to the car I set my stuff on top of the car and opened her door. In that amount of time she of course darted right out in to the busy parking lot. I obviously went chasing after her all while peeing my pants. I have absolutely no control ha. (Oh and  p.s Michael had already been in the car waiting so you know he was laughing watching this.) 

But I've said it before and I'll say it again.
 Every second of this nausea, pain, and even peeing my pants is worth it 100%.
And I can't wait to meet my baby girl.
Maybe Thursday?!
