Less Than Two Weeks to Go!!!

And it's a good, dang thing! Look at these feet!!! Normally I would not post something like this, but I just wanted to show everyone how this pregnancy is going for me. :) I hate the hot weather and pregnancy. They do not mix!Luckily, I am almost finished with this pregnancy. I am going to be induced August 1. I changed the little ticker thing on the blog. It now says I am 38 weeks, but really, I will be induced at exactly 37. I had an ultrasound a week and a half ago, and the baby is measuring rather large. That's no surprise since Halley was 10 lbs. 6 oz. just before 38 weeks. Thank goodness I am still seeing my same doctor and that he is willing to induce me a little earlier.

So, I was so excited to get caught up on the blog, but I have literally just been surviving through this pregnancy. I was in the hospital for a week at the beginning of June, and things have just gotten harder since then. I was admitted to the hospital because I was sick and having contractions, but that's not why I ended up staying. The contractions went away once my fever got taken care of, but because they were monitoring the baby, they found that he had a weird heart thing. It's called SVT. It's not some terrible heart condition. I am taking some medication that is regulating his heart while in utero, and the pediatric cardiologist says the condition will probably go away when he's born. It was a long and difficult week, and the medication isn't very fun, but I am almost finished!

Needless to say, I have not caught up with the blog. I plan to do it eventually, but as for now, I'll just have to update you on each of our kiddos. :)
