I've been having a ton of contractions the last few days. Monday they were 20 mins apart, Tuesday they were 15 minutes apart, and today they have been 10 minutes apart. I went to the doctor today and he said that as long as they aren't hurting, then I'm fine. I just need to be resting more and staying off of my feet more. yeah...ok. It's impossible to do that when you have my job! That's what I normally love most about my job...the fact that I'm busy all the time and always active. But now it's getting so difficult for me and it's obviously getting harder for my body to handle. I really don't know how to "take it easy." Even at home, I am always running errands, cooking dinner, cleaning, doing laundry. If I don't do it, it won't get done. Trust me, that's exactly what happened during my first trimester when I was puking every 5 minutes. I didn't clean or cook and so it didn't get done. ugh. I just feel like I have too much on my plate right now. I'm feeling overwhelmed and exhausted.
On a brighter note, Ella's heartbeat was in the 140's. My bp was normal at 120/72. I only gained a pound and a half since my last appointment bringing me to 146.5 and a grand total gain of 23.5 pounds.
