So, I went to the doctor a week ago and the receptionist (who sees a lot of pregnant ladies) goes, "You must be due any day now." Uh, no...I was only 30 weeks!! She then asks if I was carrying twins...am I that big for 31 weeks? I mean, geez! :)
Since my platelet count was so low a few weeks ago, they did more blood tests last week to test for other abnormalities that might be problems. I have the results, but can't interpret them...from what I can tell, I do not have low antibodies or lupus, which is good. I go back next Wednesday to figure out what those results mean. I'm still not feeling stressed about the low count, just sort of curious. It's one of those things that you can't do anything about, which is actually harder for me b/c I'm not the type of person who can sit by and do nothing...I have to here. Go figure. :)
Other than that, I'm still feeling okay. I can definitely tell that my energy level has gone back down in the last few weeks, so I'm having to pace myself again and allow myself to take longer to grade papers, leave the dishes undone for a day, and let Andrew fold the laundry. It's hard... I'm still able to keep teaching at the gym, which is continuing to help me feel good. I'm so glad for that!
What I'm most ready for is the yearbook to be done. I have a lot of work to do on that over the next two weeks, and then it'll be done. At that point, Andrew will be done with finite math, and we will be able to focus our attention on getting our house ready. I desperately need that! :)
We had our first shower last weekend, which was the best birthday present ever! The guest room (future nursery) is now a complete disaster though, which totally stresses me out. I so would prefer to organize and set that room up, but the more immediate fires are grading papers, my endorsement class, and the yearbook. Those things aren't more important to me; they just have deadlines that are sooner. Just do the next thing, right?
