So the other night I had the pleasure of being up most the night with contractions. Called L&D but they said to stay home til I had 6 in an hr. I only got up to 5 an hr and they were never regular. So false labor the dr said on the phone and said to sleep it off. I didn't sleep but I did try to. Also the doctor asked that I keep someone at home thru the night just in case I started having regular ones and needed to be brought in. Luckily Vance was able to get off for the night, so grateful the people were willing to stand his midshift after working thru the day so he could be with me. It help to know that he was right there if we needed to go in. I'm only 21wks and already getting contractions. I know still early, I've never gotten any on my own before. Maybe I'll finally go into labor my own this time around. Hopefully not before 36 weeks though.
My kids are driving me up the wall. Bryce is driving me crazy, and I know its from being bored. He doesn't get why I'm stuck home all day and why he can't go see friends. I feel horrible but not much I can do. Plus even if I wasn't on bed rest, Vance has my car everyday at work so I'm car less for awhile still. It sucks.
Today Vance is at a local college enrolling and meeting people. The Navy is paying for his college while we're on shore duty. I'm happy for him, since he's been pumped about going since we got here. Yes it means he will barely be home now with work and classes. So more for me to take on with the kids. I really need help at times with them, but I hate asking people at all.
Like today Vance is gone at the college, the kids some how climb in the closet. How not sure since Bryce bed and the heavy ass changing table are in the way. But they did, Caleb was lodge under the stroller, car seat and whatever junk we have stored in there. So I had to move the damn changing table by myself, and then get everything off of him and pull him out. I freaking pulled something while moving the damn changing table. So now my lower back hurts and I have adominal pain. It felt like something popped when I was moving the changing table. It freaking hurts and I'm in so much pain right now. Caleb is fine now, and I don't think he'll try to get back in there ever again. Not sure how he ever got in there. Wish Vance was done so he could come home, really want to lay in bed right now til the pain goes away. But he probably won't be home til 5ish. They were doing it all today, campus tour, meeting staff, enrolling, etc. He's not answering his cell, so no luck there.
Caleb was up all night last night crying. Not sure why, maybe his ears? Keeping an eye on him. Bryce was up til 11 last night crying that he didn't feel good, his throat hurts he says. So probably taking him to the dr soon.
I know my midwife is big on me resting and taking it easy. But with the kids and vance never home, I honestly don't see that happening. I try though, I try just laying on the couch drinking water. Just the kids need me for everything. I've already been slacking on house work, poor house looks like a tornado hit. I don't know, wish it was Feb. already. Ready to have baby and not have to worry about everything anymore. Why does the placenta have to be low? Hope it moves up like she expects and that in a few weeks she won't mind me doing everyday things anymore.
*sighs* Only a few more months, I need to get to work on buying baby stuff already. Plus we need to find a new place thats bigger. On top of that get a new car big enough for 3 car seats. I'm starting to think we'll never be ready for baby.
I'm going to get off here, just wanted to vent. Need to get an ice pack or heating pad for whatever it is I pulled. Sorry if I haven't return anyones calls, just things are hetic. I feel horrible for not calling people back. :o(
