I'm 37 weeks pregnant or classed as term YAY!!!! My antenatal classes where fun and informative but seriously it hasn't prepaired me for birth nor labour. I've had a few complications with urinary tract infections and my iron being very low I'm still on iron tablets. Also I was starting to show signs of pregnancy hypertension but it went away. I've also been having asthma attacks again I think it's the weather though.

It's been so hot between 35-40 degrees during the day and 25-30 at night. My latest doctors appointments have revealed I've put 1/2 a kg back on I'm 93kg's again, Kye is still head down and making his way down the birth canal and also is engaged. What a good little man he is. My doctor says that I will not make 40wks and she said about mid Feb anyways. This friday the 11th of Febuary 2005 is my hospital book in date I will let you know what happens. Then Monday the 14th of Feb valentines day is David and I two year anniversary of being being boyfriend and girlfriend.

I will keep you posted about what happens friday and monday and if and when I go in to labour then my birth story and Kye's first real photos not ultrasound pics. 19/02/05 38+2wks pregnant. For Valentines day I got David a really big card and a bundy bear bottle holder. He got me two cards and two red roses and also a $40 gift voucher for my fave clothing shop so I can go shopping after I've had Kye. I guess I better fill you in with whats been happening to me and Kye.

A few days ago I woke up and suddenly I was sick. I'd been feeling crap all day how annoying. Anyways thats not what I was concerned about the last two days I've been having lower abdominal cramping really horrible stuff but also some little spasms in my back. I had no signs of labour what so ever and Kye was still moving. My back did feel abit sorer then usual and I was concerned it may be the start of labour. I went and saw a midwife after I rang the hospital that night as it turns out it was braxton hicks false labour.

Just when I thought things couldnt get anyworse well they did. I took my brother to grid iron and I was standing there talking with one of the players and one of the guys kicked the ball and it landed fair smack in my belly of course I was scared. It really hurt me and I was really worried so i went to my doctor who refered me for an ultrasound even though she checked Kye over and said everything seemed fine. I went for the ultrasound yesterday but the sonographer said she couldnt see no internal bleeding.

But the pain is some sort of brusing she didnt say where or anything. I couldnt see it on my belly though. I was telling her both the hospital doctor and my doctor where telling me that Kye was going to be an over average size baby like a 7-8 pounder and she said I can find out for you. She said he's no more then 6.6 pound oh I am relieved but was also so shocked he's only tiny.

She said thats average and about right for his gestational age. He also is taking after me poor bugger I'm 147cm's tall long body short legs and Kye my poor darling is long body short legs. Maybe he'll grow taller like his dad. However she didnt give me my results and said my dr would have them by yesterday arvo.

I'm still sore to anyways so last night I went to my doctor for my results and she didnt recieve them. So she rang the hospital and they said Monday. My doctor says I have brusing but it's internal and she's hoping it's not the placenta. Anyways so now I have to wait till monday (sigh). So when I do get the results I'll let you know. I did get a scan pic but I'm not going to put it up as its the worst pic I've seen of Kye.

He's making his way down my pelvis and he's in a good position for a natural birth. Although I am 38wks I may make full term and even go over. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks I'll have Kye's birthing story to tell and new pictures.
