....and still no sign of Mr. Eli. I have been lucky and have been able to work from home 3 days this week. This helps my energy level and my annoying inner leg pain that is worse some days than others. My next doc appointment is on Friday where I will be checked to see if I'm appropriate to schedule an induction. I have a new symptom of pregnancy to report: rash on my under side of my belly. I have lovely stretch marks there (all my stretch marks came within the last 1-2 months....how annoying! I thought I was going to be a lucky one!) and now red, itchy bumps. Doc said to put hydrocortisone cream on, so I am. I only talked to a nurse over the phone so it wasn't officially diagnosed, but I'm pretty sure I have PUPPP . It looks terrible and makes it hard to wear anything that touches that area. Thankfully it hasn't spread anywhere more than the lower 1/4 of my belly.....
Daily Eric & I encourage Elijah to make his entrance by talking and playing with him, going on walks, doing squats, and rocking on my birthing ball. Oh, and eating spicy foods, which has only messed with my digestion and nothing else.
But with all my complaining, I really am doing okay. We'll keep everyone posted!!

Oh Amy, the rash! I hope that it doesn't get worse. I've heard they clear up after delivery. Just stock up on hydrocortisone. Ice packs help too. Can't wait to meet Eli!
