38-week appointment

Well....it doesn't look like its going to be very much longer until Baby Drew arrives. This may be our last weekend with it being just me and Sam. Nothing changed this week as far as dilation/effacement goes, but the dr. thinks I am on the verge of developing preclampsia (combination of high blood pressure, weight gain (retaining fluid), swelling and a trace of protein in my urine). I have been ordered not to leave the house this weekend and to just relax. I am not even allowed to walk, which I was very suprised about. We go back to the dr. on Monday afternoon and I have a feeling that at that point they will schedule me to be induced. The dr. said that we will have a baby next week....very exciting, but also scary! I have been an emotional mess this afternoon. Not sure what I'm going to do all weekend, seeing as how I'm not very good at relaxing, but I guess I will catch up on some reading, address Drew's birth announcement envelopes, watch some movies, and maybe scrapbook in bed a little. I am very excited - I can't believe that at this time next week I will likely be holding my precious Drew in my arms! We were hoping for Sam to get through his class next week (his final is Thursday), but aren't sure if that will happen now - oh well, the professor said that he would definitely work with him and let him take the final at a later date. Anyways, that's about all I have to report for now. I'll for sure post on Monday after our dr.'s appointment. Hope everyone has a great wkend!
