3 B's of 34 weeks

I titled this post 3 B's of 34 weeks because a lot has happened in this 34 th week of pregnancy and it just so happens that the majority of them start with the letter B. (How Sesame Street did I just sound?)

B #1
Baby shower! This past Saturday was my family baby shower for Noelle. It was a little weird since all of my side of the family live in VA or OH so I didn't exactly expect them to show up for that. But Aaron's side of the family all live within an hour of us and none of them showed up. I did have a few very dear friends show up along with the future grandmas and Aaron's sister. Noelle got lots of cute goodies and some much needed necessities.

Bronchitis! Yes that's right I started feeling sickly on Saturday night around 3 AM. I woke up coughing with a fever of 101. Well we stayed home from church and I stayed home from work on Monday and just rested. Well Monday night I checked my temp and our handy dandy thermometer said 103 then 102 so I knew I was really sick. So I stayed home Tuesday and made an appointment with a local Dr. (Long story there, basically I was told they thought it would be best to see my OB and that I was more than welcome to come back after I had given birth) I called my OB and he was out of the office for the week and his office recommended I go to a minor care clinic in Beaumont. So I headed to Beaumont and was diagnosed with bronchitis and given a prescription for an antibiotic and told that since I was pregnant there was no real medicine I could take for cough. Jump forward to today I still have a cough and some congestion but I am starting to feel a little better.

B #3
Braxton-Hicks contractions! I had my first ever Braxton-Hicks contraction last night. It wasn't as painful as I thought it would be but it definitely stopped me in my tracks. I guess that means Miss. Noelle will be making her appearance soon, and I can't wait!

36 Days and counting...I have a feeling it will be sooner than that. I go back to my OB on Monday so I guess we will see! :)
