Yolanda, I hope you're feeling better today! Sorry about the Old Navy being so far away. Maybe I should go to mine and take some pictures for you, so you know what's available! Let me know if you want me to. Sears has a few nice pieces that you can order...they're a bit pricey...
Today was a LONG day for me! I just got home. 13 hour work days are not so good for pregnant ladies. I taught all day and then had parent teacher conferences for 4.5 hours after school. Yawn! I'm so tired that I'm giddy...heehee...dh thinks I'm going nuts! :)
I went to my midwife yesterday, everything is looking good. We're 31 weeks today - getting close! I'm starting to get nervous. With teaching I have not had time to focus on getting stuff ready at home... Maybe I should go on mat. leave early to get ready, I don't know! Sigh... I guess we'll see! Am I supposed to start packing my hospital bag now? Should I have my baby stuff all ready? Dh still needs to do another coat of paint in the baby room, so I can't set that up until later. Am I just being an overcrazy new mom? I don't know! Help?

Is it odd to say I knew right away? Because I really did. I knew the next day...I don't know how - I just did! I never had the feeling before. My dh thought I was nuts. It was torture having to wait until a test could confirm it, because he wouldn't believe me! :)

I had a positive test with Rhys 9 dpo. I couldn't believe it, but I did.

Well, my c-section date has been set, January 8th. I really like the OB who is doing the surgery. He has 4 kids, with a 5th on the way. I'm a little ticked at the time, 1pm, which means I have to get up real early if I want breakfast. I wanted a morning surgery, but the scheduling nurse dawdled to long and I missed out. 
Despite minor annoyances like that, I still like how I've been treated by Kaiser. They are still offering the VBAC option; I've been told I can always change my mind if I want to back out of the surgery. It's a little nerve wracking, walking knowingly into a section, instead of the midnight, 30 hours of labor, unplanned section from last time.
Maybe I should go find the "unnatural childbirth" thread.

I'll probably pack the bag this week. The first week of January should be really crazy. I'm tired these days, but ok.

AHHHHH! Look at that -- I'm on the top of the list!!!!!!
Ahem. Sorry for the outburst.
I'm so excited! I can't believe I'm having a baby. :) So far, so good with everything. I'm still working full-time and getting to be a bit stiff and sore. I'm 37 weeks today, so she may come anytime now (all I want for Christmas is a baby....). :)

Everyone was getting on my case to pack a bag, but for some reason I wouldn't. I made a list earlier of stuff I wanted to take, that way we knew but I didn't have to have it pack. I got a sign early in the morning that labour was coming soon, so I was able to grab my list and pack then (and then I went out for the largest lunch I'd ever had in my life and went into labour in the evening.)
I might not do it that way again though.

my soldier! 
Christine 
How nice that you'll be through Christmas season and can have all that stuff put away before she's here! 
Moo! 
Elizabeth's clothes are all ready for her, and mom is stocking me full of diapers.
