OB's they are sadists!

I swear OB dr’s are sadists! They love our misery. I’ve been having contractions on and off again since Sunday. I’m barely sleeping 4-5 hours a night which I can only get in the recliner. I’ve been sleeping there since Sunday and thats only because I can get comfortable enough to sleep for abit. The pain in my lower back won’t go away, it eases up to a tolerable level but gets up to tears in my eyes. Then you add in a  migraine since Sunday. Yeah I’m not a happy camper right now. I can only take so much tylenol and hot showers. Lets not forget the fun swollen feet too.

So I go to my weekly appointment this morning. I’ve “gained” 8 lbs, which I can’t see and don’t believe. The dr said more in likely it’s just fluid retention, especially since realistically I’m barely eating because I’m nausea and food is going right thru me. He asks how I’m doing and I tell him and ask him to plese change the date of the c-section, I’m miserable and the pregnancy is considered full term and what does he say? “Let’s check and see if you are dilated any”…which I wasn’t..same problem I had with Aimee which is why they induced me for her.” Well you’re not dilated so you’re going to wait until until the 20th unless we see any progress next week”. WHAT?! *screams* Aaahhh!!

So more recliner sleeping and hot shower hopping and I’m going to add in a daily 30 min-1 hr walk and lets see if we can’t get things moving.
