It has been awfully quiet here lately hasnt it?
Nothing major to report here... feeling good. yesterday am I woke to breakfast in bed
and when I rolled over the baby was in a new position which felt like either it's butt or head was at the top of my uterus on the right. It was like a little softball under my skin haha! I made DH feel it, and he was hoping for movement... Still can't get the lo to respond to our touch just yet.
All day yesterday the baby was in an odd position, very stretchy and mildly uncomfortable for me.
Overall I've been feeling less movement than before. But larger ones when I do feel it.
And I've been having this weird sensation in my lower left groin from time to time. Mostly when I sit to pee... I can only describe it as a wooshing sensation, Like I am feeling my blood rushing through my vein/ artery in my groin. Anyone else feel this?
Other than that- The next few months are gonna fly by I think! Starting this week- we will be busy every Wednesday night doing something baby related until mid december.
This week is a HUGE consignment sale. And I mean HUGE! It's done twice a year, and is hosted in an auditorium center. There is everything from baby clothes, diapers, momma clothes, high chairs, car seats, cribs, pack and plays... the list goes on and on... And everything is gently pre loved, and drastically reduced in price.
So I have a list I am going in with in hopes to come out with an excellent haul of baby goods.
After that it's Bradley classes every week (which my husband is SOOOOOO happy about...
) I honestly can't wait, but he... would rather watch paint dry I think.
And in other news- We were supposed to have an intro session at the birth center last week wednesday- but there were too many mammas delivering, so they had to cancel it
I was so upset.
I've told ya'll this before but I tried to get into an intro session in august- they didn't have any. so this was the first one they had avaliable. when they said it was canceled I was upset, but the worst part is they only do open group sessions wednesday evenings. The next open one was this week on the 12th. So that was outa the question because of the awesome sale. The following one- on the 19th. another wednesday... When we will be in our bradley classes.
So after a very dissapointing conversation with the birth place- I called my husband and bawled... The only other way we can get into this practice is to have a private intro/walk through- Which costs as much as an office visit ($75) during normal business hours.
After much deliberation of wether or not to go to the sale or the orientation class- we decided to pay for a private orientation. I called the office back, and their first open appt is OCTOBER 1!!!!! I nearly lost my mind. So now I have to wait another ENTIRE month (from when the other class was supposed to be) to get seen there.
I feel almost like with how hard it has been to get into this practice that it is a sign that we shouldn't deliver there. I know I'm probablly over reacting, but It's just insane that Ive been trying to get in since the beginning of august!
I know the reason I can't get in is because they are selective about who they take in, are good at what they do, and are the only center in our area. There is none other like it.
It's just so frustrating....
DH brought up the option of home delivery again... I just don't know about not having a single medical doctor or mid wife to help me. What if something happened like the cord was wrapped? or the baby came out hand first? We wouldn't know how to deal with that...
I'm going to email the Midwife I know of that does home births (who is currently attachment parenting and not accepting new patients until 2013) and see if she knows any other RNM who do home births in our area...
What's happening with you ladies!?
