30 weeks and counting!

And also freaking!! LOL. So much to do and so little time left. Good news, my husband's business has a lot of work right now. Bad news, it's in Oklahoma and Baltimore. I really don't know when he's going to help me get things ready, or even come home for that matter! When he is coming home, it's for our shower on March 6th and for his friend's bachelor weekend trip a couple weeks later I think. Neither of those leaving him time to put furniture together or anything. Looks like I'm going to be enlisting help from daddy! I know this upsets Derek not to be here right now, but when the economy is slow, he's got to take jobs like this even if it means being out of town.

I have a Dr's appt this afternoon. It will be my last "monthy" visit, then I'll proceed w/the 2x's a month. My questions for him today are going to be about how he feels about me making a birth plan. I want help w/pain and will be making that VERY clear. I also don't want my ass opened up for every person that walks in and out of the room. And I definitely don't want many people in there. I'm way too private (minus this blog). I'm also asking him his recommendation about a planned delivery or c-section. It's really the last thing I want to do, but w/D's schedule, I may not have an option. Oh, and I'm also gonna ask him if me gaining as much weight as I have makes me a risk or anything. As each month goes by, my questions are becoming more serious. Scary!!
