Still potty training...

I bit the bullet this week and decided to take Sadie out of her pull-ups which are just like diapers just with a different name. Monday was tough...she had like 5 accidents with in 20 minutes. Not a big deal...Tuesday got better! She finally got the concept. If she goes on the potty she gets a prize...stickers, ice cream, cookies, candy oh yes!! The rest of the week she continued to do well. We took her out and about on errands and she took naps and woke up dry. She immediately went to the potty when she woke up. She seems very proud. She's even telling us when she has to go potty and last night at my parents I saw her holding her herself and squirming so I knew she had to go. Im a little apprehensive about taking the pull-ups off at night. I think Im just being selfish though. I dont want to get up and have to do it. Especially next week knowing that I have to go back to work. We'll figure something out!

Last Monday was my 30 week dr. check-up. I had my favorite mid-wife, Lisa. She is planning on being there the day of my surgery and told me that even if she wasnt on duty she would have come in on her day off to be there! Im having another dr. perform my c-section. Its not the dr. I have been seeing since day one because she is on vacation the week im going in! If only I had known. But Lisa assured me that this other dr. is excellent and very sweet! So I feel ok about it. When we were listening to baby's heartrate he kept spiking up to 190 everytime he moved around. And he was quite active in there! Lisa wasnt too comfortable with the 190 heartrate even though he would drop down the 160 and then spike back up. She sent me up to the birthing center...my old home...and I was put on a monitor for about 45 minutes. The baby was doing jumping jack or something in there because his heartrate was all over the place. But according the nurse and the dr. on duty the heartrate baseline was about 140 so they felt comfortable sending me home along with a pamphlet and instructions to follow if I go into pre-term labor!!! But so far, all is well and next week we'll see how he is doing in there! Only a little over a month left!!! Yay!!! Now the baby's room is a different story...
