29 weeks... 10 more to go really, given the scheduled c-section. And this week is supposed to be in the mid to high 20's. I swear, GIII is a little heater. My blood pressure is well within norms, even in the evening, and it's the evening and overnight that I seem to feel overheated. Last night I slept with an ice pack on the back of my neck in attempts to cool myself down so I could sleep... And that didn't work until 3 this morning, and that's after the ice pack got to room temp.
I've been doing my best to keep cool, considering early in the morning Saturday I had nasty abdominal cramps because of it. Not quite contractions, but not exactly your run-of-the-mill upset tummy either. That took a huge glass of cold water and an hour of relaxing to get rid of (and GIII kept wiggling as normal through them, so I doubt he cared or was affected.) But I don't feel like going through that one again.
Gunther is doing his best not to get too excited about GIII... I think it's because of Menerva Jr. He doesn't want to get his hopes up and find out that things don't work out. Can't say as I blame him, but it's getting a little difficult for me not to get a little excited. I can feel the little guy move, grow, hiccup (although that hasn't happened nearly as often as it did with his brother)... He's more removed from it, and I think that's where his safety zone lies. I know that once GIII's born and all's declaired fine, he'll be beaming and happy and whatnot. Just right now, he's trying not to. Wish I could do that... Not nearly as much as I wish I could cool off... If it wasn't for the fact I'm sure I'd have to spend a week at a chiropractor's office, I'd sleep on the cement floor in the basement.
Oh well. We're just going to have to move where there's more lakes to swim in...
