Just an update

Seriously... 4 more weeks of this? I am so sore. My outer hips and hip flexors are killing me. My belly is sore and I just can not bend over anymore. I thought I was done being pregnant a few weeks ago- now I am really done! Kailey is moving all around in there and its so uncomfortable. Sometimes I feel like she is just stretching and pushes so hard against my belly. Uncomfortable. That's all I have to say.

I had my weekly appointment today. The nurse weighed me and I was .5 lbs lighter. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal but I was just so happy to not gain 5 lbs in a week or something crazy!

She tells me that I am going to have my Group B Strep Test today and to get undressed from the waist down. Um... what test? I looked up online some info on it:
Group B Strep, also known as Beta Strep or GBS is a bacteria that can live within humans. About 25% of women are carriers of this bacteria and don't even know it. They don't have any feelings of illness and are not sick. 98-99% of all babies born to infected mothers will not become infected, if treated.
Dr. said that they give you an antibiotic during labor if the test comes back positive to prevent passing anything on to the baby. Simple enough.

I got hooked up to my monitors and this lady had a much easier time than the last girl. I didn't have to worry about holding the one monitor close to my body. I was able to sit and relax. Kailey gave a few good kicks while I was on it and her heart rate was staying in the 140's again. Dr Fitzgibbon came in and checked to see if I was dilating. Nope. THANK GOD! And she could tell that the babies head is down. She said the baby is doing very well. Way to go Kailey!

Rob is in the process of flipping our computer room to the baby's room. He is doing a great job on that. When more of its completed, I will post a few pictures. We have had some issues with Babies R Us on the furniture. It all came in last weekend and before it was loaded I noticed that they sent the wrong dresser. The manager apologized and said that it would be about 5 days till we got it in. No biggie. The girl places the new order and I go to sign on it and she ordered the wrong color. So then they go search and its not in stock. They check all the surrounding stores. Nothing. They look at the floor models at a few stores and they are not in the best condition. They can put in an order but the warehouse wont have the dresser until Dec 22. Then it could take up to 14 days to get it at the store. Great. So we will just put all her clothes on the floor. This type of stuff happens to only us and all the time. Kailey already is having our bad luck!

Update: Babies R Us called tonight and the dresser came to the warehouse early. We should have it in 7-14 days!
