Update
Ya,
I didn't think that I would have anything to update after the rambling from the last post.... but I do!!
So I took the girls to the OB appt with me... and it was awesomely fun (total sarcasm)... and long... so I'm measuring 31 weeks and i'm over 36 weeks so they wanted to do an ultrasound to check the baby (we've done this with both the girls) and then the baby is fine... over 6 lbs, but the amniotic fluid was really low...? its supposed to be at a minimum 9... mL? and I'm less than 5....mL? So anyway... and then something about the placenta having calcium deposits on it.....
anyway... then we had to move to another room... this is like an hour and a half in.. (oh ya, I had to get naked and them swab and check me... TMI, i know... but I was like trying to relax and at the same time control two crazy children... half way through Jayden ran across the room to check out the show, she was very concerned that I had a "boo boo" but I JUST WISH SHE WOULD LISTEN!! argh! so ya, we went to go get monitored for a while... baby is fine, kicking , beating away... and the doc said its "definitely a boy" again... and she said it more than once... which is so funny!
So anyway, we are going to go to non-stress tests in Kailua twice a week and then she said the kiddo should be out in TEN DAYS!!!! well... she said, "we take them at 38 weeks" which probably means that i have to be induced in 10 days or so...
I'm hoping the monitoring of the little buy will maybe make it so that we can go a little longer so i can kinda finish my classes.... ??? I don't know... I'm kinda like "whatever" about stuff... but I will be happy whenever i am done being pregnant.. (i'm so selfish and whoa is me - i know :) and we'll be so happy to have a little baby boy join our family!! and the sooner the better I guess, and if he wants to wait till the end of the month... that's cool too... :P
oh ya, and to make all us girls feel better... and for my sanity a little bit, we went shopping all night! (some baby clothes, some normal stuff and a ton of groceries, so we don't starve while i'm down...:P

Low fluid is very serious. I had very low fluid when pregnant with Weston. Mine was down to a 4! I was doing NST's daily and a bio-physical profile once per week-- where they would do an ultrasound and actually score the baby in a series of different positions. It was scary. Low fluid can make for complications in the future and for a rough delivery and very stressful for the baby.
I hope you take it easy and drink plenty of fluid.
Good luck!
CRAZY!!! It seems you usually come early? I am glad that the baby looks to be doing good. That will be crazy to see a little mexican boy running around. Can't wait for pictures!! Oh and you know of a cheap tile guy??? We are looking for one!!
