That time is coming sooner than I expected. Keegan will be here in about two weeks and I haven't even had time to get his room ready!! This pregnancy has been so hard on me, however, I am lucky that K-man is doing great! I found out last week that my amniotic fluid is a little high. Now every week I have to be monitored for about 20 minutes to check is heart beat. Also, over the weekend I was sick and couldn't keep anything down. So about 4am Monday morning I called the doc and she sent me over to Labor and Delivery, also known as The Birthing Inn. We went and had to have fluids and monitor my little man. He is doing well, I was having infrequent contractions and barely dialated, however the pain in my lower stomach is hurting so bad that walking has been a problem since about Friday night. So basically the doctor is ordering rest and keep track of everything. Funny though since I can't really feel the contractions, I don't know how to monitor that!
As for everything else...
My mother-in-law is not coming to the hospital for Keegan's arrival. I don't know how to take that because she is only three hours away and it will be her first grandchild that she gets to see. Yeah my mom will be there, however, emotional support for my husband by his own mother would be awesome. I just don't understand. And she is telling me this stuff over e-mail, and I don't know how to respond to it! Should I just chalk it up to that's how she is or should I tell her how I really feel. But I don't want to be mean. It really hurts my feelings and hurts my husband's too. Even though he is used to it and isn't expecting much from her. Maybe it's because I am pregnant that it is effecting me this much!! Any advice anyone??
Other than all this, RCIA is going well for my hubby and I. We are also praying hard that the right person for our country is elected to become the president. We are praying that whomever it is does not affect the defense budget so we can keep our job and everything else. We are also fighting a court battle with my husbands ex for his son. That is just a very complicated sticky situation. I can not believe how women are when they have custody of a child and are receiving child support. They lie to the child and not let them talk or see their dad. It's just horrible. Especially when you don't know how the child is doing, where they are living, and if they are even healthy!!!! I pray that the money is really being used for him and not for her! A lot of unknowns. It just sucks!!! So if anyone has any advice on anything I wrote about, feel free to e-mail me or post a comment!!
