I made it another week! I decided that if I make it to 32, then I'm going to treat myself to a pedicure. My feet are in pretty rough shape, and it is pretty difficult for me to reach them! Then at least they will look good for when I deliver this little guy.
Nathan was wheezing on Thursday night, so Friday I decided to take him in to get checked out. He had to have a breathing treatment at the office, then we were prescribed a nebulizer with albuterol for home use as well as prednisone for 4 days and antibiotic for a sinus infection. This visit by far took the longest, we left the house at 10:20am and didn't get back until 1:45pm. I was on my feet way too much and ended up having very frequent contractions for about 4 hours straight. I decided not to call the doctor because the intensity was very similar to what I've already been experiencing, and my last visits to L&D I checked out ok, despite the contractions. Thankfully the contractions ended up subsiding with rest. Not much I could have done about it - Nathan needed me.
I've been resting all weekend, we had to skip Nathan's first session of swim for spring and stayed home from church today. I'm hoping that he feels better by Tuesday so that he can go to school and won't miss out on the weeks activities. It's a bummer to be cooped up all day when the weather is a bit warmer today - I would love to go for a walk!
Still no word on the job front. I'm starting to re-vamp my portfolio in case I get called for another interview for faculty. I should be able to get it all done this week. I did get approved for long-term disability and was pleasantly surprised that it will include 6-8 weeks of maternity leave after the baby is born. Now I just have to get to full-term! I'm getting pretty darn close now - only 6 more weeks to go until I'm at the magic 37....
