I am huge! I actually haven't gained much weight. I weigh three pounds more than I weighed 6 weeks ago, even though I am a LOT bigger. Go figure! Maybe it's because this little girl is trying to make an early appearance and I am carrying low and right out front. I was having really bad hip pain/pressure last week, so I decided to go to the hospital (It's such a great thing I am Native because I get free health care anywhere a reservation is!). I was pretty much fully effaced and the baby is engaged and ready to come. Crazy, eh? I was bummed to hear that, but at the same time it made me feel like less of a baby. I knew I was in a decent amount of pain! I am on a few medicines for preterm labor which makes me swell pretty badly and gives me headaches. Other than that it's been doing a good job of keeping the baby in longer. My goal for now is to make it to 35 weeks. She is measuring a week and a few days bigger in weight, so that's a good thing! It's been really nice to be at my parent's house. My family is really helpful, and it has been awesome! It's also been really nice to spend time with them. I think I might have a hard time adjusting when we go back home! My kid's have grown a ton since we've been here. V is saying a lot more, and it's so fun and cute! Mattix is really social and loves to show off. He will do different things and when he does something that makes you laugh he will keep doing it. He is such a funny kid!! He does like to pick on Vella, though. We have to watch him because he can be a real stinker to her! We decided on a name for our next baby girl, finally. All of this preterm labor nonsense made me feel like we really needed to get on the ball with that! We will announce it soon. I miss Greg a lot. He wasn't able to come down on Saturday because of car issues, and I have been dieing to be with him again. The car is fixed and he should be down tomorrow. I can hardly wait!!!!!
