THE END OF THE LONG ROAD. still seems incredible
than 2 weeks and I'll be mother! My brain apparently does not want to forfeit this information, even if I have a belly that I do not see your feet! But I think until I hold you in my arms Sofia will not believe until the end. It is shortly. I'm afraid that something goes wrong, she has problems ... ah, I thought of all kinds.
Throughout the second quarter was a little 'carried away by emotions and worries for many examinations, the curiosity of this new situation and the advice of others but I still do not "feel" mother, I had no awareness of having a creature inside me. Buy things for someone who did not see, I knew, even calling his name made me curious. I felt almost bad for not already love the madness that being inside me. I do not know, the human brain ... everyone has to come with us his time. And I have arrived in this period: The third quarter brought me great love, pure for my daughter. That felt really responsible for the life you have inside, which is separated from yours and you have to protect. I remain enchanted in front of photos of babies that are full of newspapers that are now subscribed to the idea and go crazy with joy to have that little body in my arms to feed. And now I can not wait! I wish I began labor pains
NOW.
Cancun kicked off in my third trimester! A good week in the Caribbean to enjoy the running out of "togetherness", experiencing the "honeymoon" that we had not done yet! I worried a bit 'to take another plane after Italy and be away from everything (if anything happened in Mexico was not exactly the place where I wanted to be!), But I felt good and then ... GO! Well .. the photos speak for themselves! We have been divinely.
the way back we had to pass the test "
during pre-natal "! I do not know how it is in Italy, but here I am ... pazziiiii the course basically consists of: tours hospital, teaching the breathing technique and how to change a diaper, but above all detailed view
down to the smallest special parts direttaaaaa! I shocked! Scott white as a sheet. I have altered and I pointed out that not everyone wants to watch when it expands the ... giving birth, how much blood comes out I like me or how I can rip out the placenta! We're kidding! In response to my gynecologist about we do it, I replied that if I have to work an arm or stomach I do not see a video of what I do! Even here it is common practice to put a mirror in the bottom of the bed to give birth so you can see how the baby comes ... Sorry, for me too! I told him that I absolutely do not want no mirror!
I swear, it took me days to recover from these videos (never mind the vision of cesarean!). I went from "I want Caesar" to "I want a water birth, and then back to my original thought: all give birth, you'll see that I give birth! Only I do not care to know the details: I will be in labor, go to the hospital, give birth and then suffer like all! We say that Americans are a bit '... I will use the excessive delays in some things! We even had a visit at the home of a nurse who showed us a video on how to recognize premature contractions, and every week I called my health insurance to know how to carry my pregnancy. But beware, talking on the phone with my gynecologist, is virtually impossible. Call and answer a disc I am asked to choose between different options, then answer me if I'm lucky I'm not a secretary who can give no information and tells me that the doctor call me, but if I go to the hospital for an emergency! !
So everything is fine until you have no problem! If you have a problem, go to the hospital. Luckily I never had big problems because they are accustomed to a relationship a bit 'more direct with my doctor!
shooting from the experience of "childbirth class" we got the idea to do a 3D ultrasound to see our little girl. But the appointment has not been seen by no Sophia, was covered by the umbilical cord. They made me walk to move it, pee, drink, eat, etc. .. but nothing. Eventually they told us to come back. The second time was not as lucky! Scott and I very pissed off. Not so much because you could not see the child, but for the lack of information giving: Go to site e sembra sicuro che ti possano dare foto quasi “reali” di tua figlia e tu, inesperta, ci credi. Poi vai li, vedi immagini brutte, incomplete, ti preoccupi pure e spendi quasi 150$ per niente.
E va beneeee...Arriva Natale...arriva la zia Lidia :-) L’ultima settimana dell’anno l’ho passata finalmente in compagnia di una figura importante della mia famiglia ed è stato bellissimo vedere mia sorella che dice alla mia pancia: “ciao, so’ io!!” come se già fossero vecchie amiche!
Gennaio. La mia pancia continua a crescere e pesare, le caviglie si gonfiano, disturbi inestinali e bruciore di stomaco sono i miei compagni quotidiani. Ma in ultimately I'm fine. I am lucky because I can not work follow the rhythms of my body in perfect peace. Although the "enjoy the pregnancy" (ie he had nothing to do) it is often counterproductive: you have nothing to which you dedicate it gives you a bit distracted 'from your state of "almost motionless whale"! Yes, I walk (even if the cold weather and snow do not help), I cook (noooon positive thing if you try not to become a whale), organize the closet, the system, but above all RESPECT!
Two weeks ago the last ultrasound: all figures are in murmur, Sofia weighs about 2.5 kg and is already posizonata birth. My cervix was assottigliata del 50% e, parole del dottore, “anytime from now”!! Cooosa??? In qualsiasi momento??! Ma sono solo alla 36° settimana! Lui mi dice che la bimba è pronta. Mi viene l’ansia, torno a casa e comincio a fare la borsa per l’ospedale, compro le ultime cose per Sofia, parlo con Lidia e ci mettiamo d’accordo per il suo arrivo, insomma mi preparo…Sono passati 15 giorni e non succede ancora niente.
Ho anche consultato il
"calendario lunare” pur non essendo una appassionata della materia (eh, le donne incinte fanno cose strane) e sembra che la maggior parte dei bambini nasca con la
LUNA NUOVA . Beh, la prossima luna nuova sarà il
February 3 ! Is it true?
