Week 26 - still pressing on!

People ask me all the time how I'm feeling and it's difficult for me on how to respond. I'm not sure what to compare it to other than what I hear from others about pregnancy and the other "multiple blogs" that I read over and how I felt before I was pregnant. I really am doing great. I've had no complications and no issues at all come up so far. I'm still working and am able to do things with Spence and friends still. Well...some things. I did miss out on Frightmares, trips and some "U" games this year. (Stair climbing is not recommended by my doctors and nurses.)

But..all in all, I feel great and really believe that optimism and a strong mind-set is the way to live. I tell clients that in my office all the time and have always believed it and now I get to live it. (However, I still knock on wood every chance I get out of superstition I guess) I'm not saying that is why I haven't had any complications, I know we have been extremely blessed as well but I do think it has helped me.

Anyway, moving on from my own personal musings... this week was great! Nothing major but I did have a few church responsibilities which I'm so thankful for. I love you Joleen, Laura and Miranda. Thanks so much for your support and love. I had a Girls' Morris Family Craft Night - we made the cutest wall hangings. Alta won their 2nd playoff game so up to the "U" we go this week. I'm not telling my doctors or nurses and am hoping there is a special elevator for me to take - there is right? :) If that is the case, I could go to the last "U" game coming up in a few weeks - I should have looked into that a little further. My car fizzled out on me this week too and I had to take it in to get a major tune up - poor thing. I love that car though - I'm still not looking for a new one yet okay?

I had a OB appnt with my doctor, Dr. F. I love him - he is great and my favorite nurse Cristy is fabulous to me. I never go to an appnt without leaving with something in hand. She is so sweet! They did a quick cervix check and all looks fine - still holding strong without any issues there. Nice and tight! Thank goodness. That is the one thing that could change overnight. Dr. F talked to me about working and other activity I do. He told me that it is really up to me what I wanted to do at this point since all looks okay but to be careful and cautious and to relax and sit as much as possible. No problem for me there. I also think my paranoia has tapered off a bit - I'm always hesitant but I'm feeling pretty good about things. "One more week" right? That is the saying.
