Update

So here I am at almost 35 weeks...I know I look like I'm like 42 weeks or something...
and.... the latest news is that I have a huge kidney stone on my right side. It is too big to pass but they cant really do anything about it till after the baby comes....So as of now I have a scheduled c-section on the 17th of Aug. but it looks like my Dr. has agreed to do it sometime the week of the 8th due to the stone because I basically have to suffer till I have the baby before they can do anything about it. If the pain gets too too too bad (like having to be admitted to the hospital) then they could go in and put a stint but I really don't want to have to do any kind of procedure while pregnant and that is more of a desperate measure. So hopefully I can tough it out (with the help of as little pain meds as possible) for a few more weeks and we can meet this little girl a little earlier then planned.
So I guess me talking about how much I loved being pregnant with the other two and having no complaints is now catching up to me.
I can officially say now that I'm pretty miserable(the heat is not helping either). I have never been a big complainer and I can say I am tougher then most but I have had my share of complaints the past few weeks and days! Please forgive me if I have an awful look on my face when you see me....I promise it's not personal!

Oh Katie, I'm so sorry. I just had a feeling you weren't feeling that great...I don't know why. Please let me take Gabe and Syd some day next week. We miss all of you. Hope those meds can help with the pain!

I am so sorry! I just filled a script for pain meds too, for severe back/hip pain. I haveput it off for awhile...I am hoping to sleep through the night, after not being able to for more than 4 months. I have had kidney stones and can't imagine what you are dealing with being preg. too. We are being induced the 2nd. I'm praying I go sooner on my own, I'll pray for you too. Like you my other two pregnancies were nothing like this.Blessings Katie :)

Oh no Kate! Your belly pic is cute :) I've had kidney stones twice. The first time I was 35-36 weeks w/ Jaxon. I was able to pass one, but had others that I just had to live with. I TOTALLY feel your pain, and I'm sorry!! I wouldn't wish that kind of pain on anyone!! Take care of yourself the best you can and hang in there! I'll be praying for you!!

LOOK AT HOW CUTE YOUR ARE! And I am super sorry about your pain. Kidney stones stink; I had one right after I had the boys. Not fun at all while recovering from a c-section, but the babies were out and I felt like I could take pain meds more easily. I will pray for you and this horrible pain. Hang in there. Hang in there!

Katie: I just read the blog and will be praying for the doctor to make the right decision for you and the little one. I hope you are not too uncomfortable. Love you.

Sorry to hear about the kidney stone, Katie! I can't imagine dealing with that at the end of pregnancy. Praying for less pain and a healthy baby girl soon!
