Officially in the third trimester and I couldn't be more relieved about it. 3 weeks ago I was frantic that this baby may not have a chance but each day that we get through gives me lots of reassurance. My appt today included the progesterone shot, an u/s to measure the cervix, and another FFN to see if I'll go into labor in the next 2 weeks. My cervix actually grew back a little bit, from 0.8 to 1.5cm which is great news now if the FFN comes back negative that would be doubly great. I got 7 more weeks to cook this baby and we better make it there for the sake of this lil girl. Then after the Dr, was that stupid glucose test which drives me nuts...the taste of that sticky sweet orange shit is ghastly. I was able to chug it this time tho which made it a little easier...a few months ago it took me much longer to choke it down. So now its just lunch time and back to the couch for another week of boredom and watching my ass get flatter.
My mom has been here since Saturday and things have been going pretty good. I had hit that low the other day but I think I'm over that, today I woke up grouchy but the day is getting better. Mom hasnt cooked in forever, so I have to sit at the kitchen table telling her what to do with what ingredient! Which is weird because we grew up on good cooking so idk how you forget how to make a meatloaf. go figure. Mason loves having his nonna take him and pick him up from school everyday he's going to be upset at the end of the month when my parents are gone.
So glad that your Mom can be there - Say Hi to her for me. I can only imagine how you are feeling but you said it right that it is all for that little girl! Thinking of you and hope you don't completely lose your shit before this is over.
