I had my 36 week apt this Tuesday (along with the oh so lovely Group B Strep test). The dr was talking inducing! He got out the calendar and started counting backward from my due date and he determined that the big day will either be Friday Oct 5 or Monday Oct 8! Two weeks and counting!!!!!!!!!!!!!! His reasons are -- I'll be 38 weeks by then (totally full term) and he doesn't see any reason I should go beyond 38 weeks given my trouble with high blood pressure and gestational diabetes. I'm freaking out a little!
Then last night we (finally) began our childbirth classes. This should have been done a month ago but the stupid health system cancelled the last set because there was only one other couple registered. Well --- Now I'm only going to make 3 classes TOPS. That's with us going to the class on 10/4 (which could potentially be the day before she arrives!)
I think the whole stress of everything has caught up with me. During class last night (while watching the childbirth video) I started crying and could not stop! I have no idea why. It's not like I haven't seen or heard of this stuff before! Wayne thought I was losing my mind and the instructor thought I might have been having contractions or something! I'm going to be a total nut job in another two weeks, aren't I?
