32 Weeks

I found out yesterday at my Dr appt that I am dilated to a 1. although not surprising (considering I've been having contractions since 18 weeks) it's not exciting like it was with the other pregnancies. I can't have this baby early!
We are moving (still in the neighborhood just to a bigger house) the first week of April. great timing right. The Dr had informed me that all I can do is walk from room to room and tell people where to put stuff. Fabulous. I'm going to have a hard time with this one. something about the control thing.
I was also told that I am borderline hypertension (not surprising, this has been the case with all mr pregnancies). If my BP goes up next visit I will have more lab work and a non stress test.
I decided not to stress and worry and to ENJOY the down time.... it won't happen again so enjoy it. We shall see how good I am at my advice. It's been a long hard pregnancy and I've already been on partial bedrest since 25 weeks. I'm not so good at bed rest. Enjoy the ride. Enjoy the ride. Enjoy the ride. See I'm convincing myself already :)
By the way if anyone has any suggestions, or ideas of what to do I'd love to hear them. Any testimonals of these issues with essential oils???
I think I've already used a bottle of lavendar which is all I've heard of to use essential oil wise to help with pre term labor.
