What a week!

We started out the week with snow and missed Monday at school and had a two hour delay on Tuesday which put me at catch up all week in my classroom! Then on Thursday, I started having severe back pain! I heard everything from back labor to that's just pregnancy pain!
When I got up Friday morning, I was still in pain, so I took a day off school and called the doctor. They said for me to come on in. Robert took me to the doctor and he said I had a pinched nerve! Are we surprised that something else is wrong with me? The doctor showed Robert some exercises to do to help the pain! Poor Robert...more ways to have to pet me...lol! He also checked to see if I was dilating and I'm not. Garrett's head is still on top of my pelvic bone and that is the pressure I feel! He said once Garrett went below the pelvic bone I would start dilating and the pressure would change. He asked how much longer I was going to work and I said 9 more days and he said it would be painful, but to sit down as much as possible since my feet are also swelling horribly! So much to look forward too! I have some more sick days I can take if the pain is too severe I can take off! We have our church shower on Sunday, so hopefully we will have Garrett's basic needs covered in case I go early (which my mom is praying I don't)! Robert put together the travel system and ordered an extra base for my car! He also put together the swing and he is going to clean out the cars. With this new pain, I am no help to him. He said the next baby we were buying all new stuff and I had to put it together! I said not unless there's two next time...lol! Hope your week was blessed! Enjoy your weekend!
