An update for week 35

I should have done this update on Tuesday when I went to the Dr. but better late than never. 

I went to the Dr. He did the group B strep test and checked for dilation. It looks like I'm 1cm dilated. Which could mean Squirt is coming soon or that I could sit at 1cm forever. I have another appointment Tuesday so I'll see if I progressed any. 

I was also informed to stop my progesterone shot. Which is nice, I've been counting down the doses left and hated getting the shot every week. 

This week with me I've been noticing if I lay on my back I get dizzy and can feel my lungs crowded. I also wake up most of the time with my hips hurting so much. My pelvis has also been sore lately too. Almost like I over stretched. I'm also extremely tired all the time, even if I just slept. 

I finally have a WIC appointment this Monday. It'll be nice to get some help since all we have is money going out and none coming in lately (I still haven't gotten paid for drill last month either). Big E had to stop by unemployment last week because they don't ever call back and since their system is messed up (or they messed up) the first time we haven't gotten any money from that yet. And now since his case was reopened we have to wait till next week until he can claim unemployment. 

This Monday Big E also has an interview. If he passes that he'll get a second interview and then if he passes that one he'll be offered a job. Someone put in a good word for him too. But we just have to take it one step at a time. We're really hoping on this job. 

I have drill this weekend which I'm nervous about. I had Little E at 36 weeks and that's what I'm at now. Being over 3 hours away from home at this time isn't very reassuring. Just another reason I want to get out but I can't because we need the health insurance for all of us. 

We did have a little help this week, however. We cashed in all our stocks since they don't really change and we didn't have much. We're hoping to open an IRA with it but if we need it for funds at least it'll help. Plus I just applied for pay as you earn for my student loans and was approved, since we're so low income we owe $0 a month right now. That helps so much at this time. Even though my payments weren't starting until May. It's just one less stress at the moment. 

Though I'm hoping by this time next month I'll be able to say Big E got a job and we're doing better.
