interesting stuff

my mom passed this little tidbit along to me, apparently an apple a day keeps asthma away, for your baby, if you eat it while you're pregnant. Also, eating fish once a week reduces incidence of eczema. Weird, eh? I have been eating lots of apples, but not fish. I love fish, but it's just not something we eat a lot of. I'll have to make a point of it though, just in case. 9 weeks left, it should help some!

I'm also a bit nervous. Although nothing really ended up happening last time, other than you know, bedrest and all that crap, baby-wise, everything turned out fine. Late, but fine. But it was just at this time that things went to hell in a handbasket. What I found really creepy, in re-reading my posts from last time, was that I thought that exactly what happened, might happen. And blogged about it, like 3 days before it did. I'm psychic! Or something. I'm having again those fun braxton hicks contractions, and they definitely do pick up, and or I definitely do cause myself to have a good one, when I do anything beyond strolling around. There are a lot of stairs and stuff at school, and it's especially noticeable if I'm sitting or resting for a long time and then get up and do something right away. They're not coming regularly though, and not more than 4 an hour for sure, so I'm still good as far as I can tell. I'll keep you posted.

Anyway, so I'm just a bit nervous of something like that happening again. I go to my doctor in just over a week, on March 4, and have an ultrasound the 10th, and hopefully they'll be able to tell me something, or set my mind at ease, or...something. I start to see my OB on the 19th, every 2 weeks until 36 weeks (which I think is 2 weeks later) and then every week. I'll be done work by the time the every week timing kicks in, so they'll be glad for that. They have someone in mind to replace me, so that puts one part of my mind at ease. I have 8095 things to do before then, and about 20 days in which to do them. I think people are figuring out that I'm leaving soon, and they keep coming to me with things to put on my to-do list. I'm doing my best!
