Pregnancy Woes

Pregnant and tired and sick and uncomfortable and tired oh and did I mention pregnant!! If you have been pregnant before you are rolling your eyes at me right know, thinking to your self "oh Lindsay give me a break we have all done it"! I am gonna be honest here, I am not a great pregnant woman! I like being pregnant (sometimes) and I definitely like the end result (the baby, not the pushing) but everything in between is not my favorite!
For example
• first trimester sickness
• boobs getting massive (mine anyways)
• every part of your body hurting
• being insanely hungry all the time (actually sounds fun but isn't)
• all the invasive things they have to do to you ( internals, group b swab, more internals, blood work and the lost goes on)

These are not fun things for me, or for any woman for that matter. Most of my friends look at me with pathetic eyes and listen to my woes! Good friends!!

Oh geesh Iam such a complainer, well at least Iam honest! Right?
The fun part comes for me in 2 weeks!! They are inducing me at my 38 mark!! Pretty excited to have this child in my arms and not in my tummy!! :) not excited for the labour! I have been dreaming alot about labour in the last week or so and the dreams are awful!! Ekkkk! I have definitely got my self all worked up! I know what to expect which scares me more than it did the first time! The first time you have no idea what's a comin!! The second time.....ohhhh I know what's coming!!Richard said to me in love and honesty the other day as I reframed from yelling, " Iam so nervous for labour Lindsay"!!!! Hahah your nervous! Your not doing it i am! I did reframe from yelling or laughing and just smiled at him.(grin) MEN!

As I sit here writing this iam in the maternity ward getting a routine NST test to make sure baby is doing ok. One more funny story:
Literally five minutes ago one of the older OB's just came in and sat down by my bed and said, " how many weeks are you" Me "almost 36". He continues to tell me how high my blodd presure is and how my urine came back with to much protein in it!!! He than says " time to have this baby"!!! WHAT!!!!!! I thought i was doing good, I thought my blood pressure was good and baby was fine. My head is spinning and iam starting to sweat!!! I than look over at his chart and see a different name; last name "Coles" not "Nicolle"!!!!!! I precede to tell him he has the wrong chart!! OH BOY! I than hear arguing in the hall way and then i am left sitting here all alone with no explanation to what is going on. I beep the nurse she comes back in, "were so sorry your fine, that was the wrong chart he had"!!! GEESH. So I am headin home and they cant stop me, hehe!

Thought that would be a funny ending to my pregnancy woes!! God has a sense of humor!!

In the End, aside from all the yucky invasive things that need to happen in order for me to have this baby, I am truly excited and blessed to have this baby inside of me and soon in my arms!! This little guy is a gift and i will try my hardest to suck it up and think of the wonderful end result, a baby boy!!!

The end

I am back!!

Hey ya"ll or hey one person that actually reads this!!! I was challenged the other day to start bloggig agian for the third time!! I guess I figured I couldnt blog since I don't have a laptop and my computer is a pain in the butt!! Sooo I am resorting to my iPhone!!
What's been up at the Nicolle house you ask? Well aside from a very energetic 2 1/2 year old, were also having another baby!! Soon actually!!! My doctor plans on inducing me in three weeks which is so exciting!!! I can't wait to meet this little guy that will soon join our family, making it a family of four!! FUN!!! Scary, but fun.

Its interesting how God answers prayers. Last Christmas I remember saying to Rich I want a Christmas baby!! Well this little guy is definitely coming around the Christmas season!! I am all ready to, I think! Bag packed for baby and me , carseat ready, room ready!! Check, check and check!! Now labour that's a whole other story!!! Am I ready for that heck no!!! Are we ever ready. One of my teachers in college while trying to ease my anxiety said "don't worry Lindsay it's only like trying to push a cabbage patch doll out of your nose, no big deal"!!! Hmmm i feel comforted!! Your thinking to your self pull it together girl you have done this before!!! And??????
It still gonna Hurt alot! And if your a friend of mine you know I dont handle pain all that well!! Ekkk (bitting nails) I'll be fine!

Next change for the Nicolle house is, we attend attend a new church!!! Don't get me wrong we love CLA!! It will always be a place we call
Home!! There are preciouse members of our friends and family that go there so it still feels like home! But rich and I felt God pulling on our hearts to begin a new journey! So fun, right? Rich and I have felt strongly to join a new church plant called Urban Road! Planted by amazing pastors whose heart for the body blows us out of the water. We already feel so engaged and loved already at this new church. God has big plans for Urban road and were so stocked to be on board!! We meet every other sunday at colosusse at 10 in theater 10, just if you were wondering!

So thats about it for now! Hopefully I'll be faithful at updating this,no promises! :)

Cheers
Lindz
