False Labor? Yikes!

So yesterday was a very interesting Monday to say the least! I am so thankful we are off to our State Testing and edging closer to another week down.

My morning started off with a new student who refused to follow her schedule. I really feel for her because she is a foster child, recently placed in the last month, and has just been at Citrus for a few weeks. However, I ended up in the office for over an hour with foster mom, child, and vice principal trying to calm the girl down. My poor first period, they've really had to put up with me being gone for meetings lately.

Anyway, everything seemed to calm down until around noon, during my 4th period class. I've been having bad leg cramps and backaches, but nothing that laying down wouldn't really fix until yesterday. Boy was I starting to get nervous! I'm in my 33rd week now, so in 3 weeks Nathan will be considered full-term. I really am wanting to make it to June 26 though, so I can see my 8th graders graduate. This will be the first group of kids I've had for 2 years straight. My back was hurting so bad yesterday that I was starting to get dizzy and really sweating bad. I was able to wait until the end of 5th period and my awesome aide drove me home during lunch. All seems calm today, so just praying Nathan stays calm for just a big longer.

I have my next Dr.'s appointment a week from Wednesday. So I am curious to see if we are on schedule, or if the doctor thinks I need to take it slower. I hadn't wanted to start my maternity leave until the school year was over. But, healthy baby first. =) We'll see. I am feeling good today, so we're just taking it a day at a time.

I have two awesome friends throwing me a shower, so I'm excited about that. One's a lady from work. She is so sweet. Then a very good college friend is doing one for the "CBU Crew" - as we call ourselves. It's funny. The only time we really see each other now are for wedding or baby showers. =)

Well, Happy Tuesday everyone! Still no internet at our new home, so just continue to call Tim's or my cells if you need/want to get a hold of us.

Wow this really sounds like things have been really rough lately~I'm so sorry! I hope that it gets easier for you soon, and that you get both a healthy baby and to see your other babies graduate. =)

I will pray Nathan stays in a bit longer! Take it slow or as slow as you can
