Looking Forward

It's hard to believe that soon we'll be a family of four, and Eva will be a big sister! I guess it's like it was last time we were expecting: you try to imagine what it's going to be like, but you just can't wrap your head around it until you're there. I'm starting to really look forward to meeting this baby. My Braxton Hicks contractions are getting stronger and longer lasting, but they're erratic and unpredictable. I recently found out I tested positive for Group B Strep, so Michelle is prescribing a treatment for the next two weeks. If I still test positive after that, I may need IV antibiotics during labor to protect the baby, something she can easily take care of at a homebirth.

We've got a lot going on in the next couple weeks. Dave's interview with Atria on Sunday went really well, and he has another interview scheduled for Tuesday, this time with the Regional Director. It looks very promising. Then David's family is getting together this Saturday to celebrate all the guy's birthdays. Early next week my parents arrive from Oregon, just in time to be there for the midwife home visit. Then we have the MediCal interview next week (even if Dave gets this job, his benefits won't kick in for awhile).
