21 more days!!!!!

I can't believe tomorrow I'll be 37 weeks already!
I've been experiencing Braxton hicks for some time now but nothing painful. My feet swell up from time to time,  but drinking lots of water,  soaking them in warm water with Epson salt, compression socks and keeping them elevated has helped tremendously. As far as my back pain,  it's become an everyday thing and I've gotten pretty used to it at this point.  Baby A moves around sooo much and at times I feel him under my ribs which can be a little uncomfortable but definitely tolerable. Next week my wonderful IPS fly into town to settle in and get ready for the birth of their baby boy aswell as celebrate their oldest sons birthday aswell. I still can't believe how fast time flew by. Seriously, it feels as though it was a few weeks ago when baby A's tiny little heartbeat was first seen via ultrasound by the IVF doctor.

Today marks one week that I've been off of work.  On Christmas day I developed severe back pain that would come  and go. I tried going back to work after the holidays,  but having to sit for an extended period of time made my back hurt to the point of wanting to cry.  After discussing my symptoms with my Dr, he recommended pulling me out of work in hopes that the rest would help with the back pain,  and me staying off my feet would help in reducing my swollen feet and ankles. I also purchased a pregnancy back brace that has helped some aswell. I'm Soooo excited for C &S (and their young son) to come and start preparing for the birth of baby A, aswell as be able to attend Dr Appts with me.
Time is going by so quickly, before we know it they will be a wonderful family of 4. 😊
