Bye Bye Basketball Belly!

I have really been lacking on my blog for a while because either A) I have been going into hibernation mode between the hours of 12:00pm to about 7:00pm almost everyday and I'm in bed 9:00pm to 9:00am. So that leaves me about five hours during the day to get stuff done, and blogging just hasn't been on the top of the list. OR B) My stomach can no longer sit longer than ten minutes in an upright position without me having take a break to catch my breath. (I can thank little Quinny for that one). So here I am updating this blog finally!

So I am now 39 weeks pregnant, and the past couple weeks have been the longest weeks of my life! Last Tuesday I was enjoying a day with my mom while Hadley was at work, and I was having lower back pains, so my mom and I thought I was having pre labor pains.. no no.. after trying a hot bath, bouncing on an exercise ball, and back rubs, I woke up from a nap ran to the bathroom and threw up the healthiest meal I have had my entire pregnancy, and fell to my knees with the most excruciating pain I have ever felt in my side. I ended up at the hospital where I'll be delivering, and after hours of what seemed like nurses coming in and out of the room to check on me, they finally did an ultrasound, and figured out I had kidney stones! The doctor came in and talked about inducing me, but then explained that they don't like to do that with your first until you are at least 39 weeks, and I was 38. So they sent me home with an achy kidney and no baby.

So here I am now, a week later still aching with kidney pains and a HUGE belly. But it's about to come to an end :) . . . well the HUGE belly part. I'm going to be induced this Thursday if Quinn doesn't come by then. I cannot express how crazy my emotions are at this point. Hadley and I are so excited to be starting a family together. I can't wait to snuggle my little boy and kiss his sweet face!

So the next time I blog I will have lots of pictures of my little buddy to show off!
