After many a night and nap where Wake found his way out of his crib, and then out of the crib tent on the crib, we decided to convert and give him a toddler bed. The first two weeks were rough and sleepless and then he caught on. I was relieved that I would be getting sleep again. As soon as it got good...it got bad and we are still dealing with sleepless nights. The more pregnant I have gotten the more draining this no sleep is for me. But we are just sticking to our plan of getting him back in bed and crossing fingers that one day he will stay there...ALL NIGHT!
I am 36 weeks pregnant right now and experiencing contractions all the time and pressure in my pelvic wall that I did not feel the first time around. At 32 weeks I had a contraction scare and found that I am just one of those people that gets preterm contractions that are not the real thing and will probably happen for the rest of my pregnancy. I am now more than ready for the real thing to start since I'm further along. Baby Girl is due June 12th, but I have decided not to let things go on that long. Wake was an emergency Csection and we have been back and forth about doing a repeat C or trying for natural birth. In the end we have decided to schedule a C section and then if things happen prior to that then we will give it a whirl. I just can't imagine going over my due date and then having a C section anyway (since they can't induce a past C section).
So, life is about to get crazier and I'm just hoping that it turns out a little easier than I'm thinking it will be. I already have a wakeful, high energy toddler that wants mommies attention all the time, and a husband that thinks I am some sort of super hero that can get everything done with no problem at all...what will New Baby add to this story??? We are eager to find out and meet this sweet little girl!
