37 1/2 weeks (tomorrow)

I know I am a little behind on my updates and I am so sorry!! I went to the Dr last Tuesday (36 1/2 weeks) and I measure in at 44 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! However, she was still not in position and I was still not dilated. Her heart was 179bpm and was found up high and to the left. The Dr wasn't happy that her heart was so fast, so he retook it. He found it down low and to the left and it was 151(ish)bpm. Kind of odd to me, but he didn't think anything of it.......
A lot went on last week and I was under a lot of stress due to Levette's dad going into the hospital and Nan's husband having a heart attack and being put in the hospital. Plus we had Dad's 50th birthday party Saturday. The contractions started pretty badly Thursday night. I was headed to work on Friday when we got the phone call about James (Nan's husband). Since my parents were driving me to work, I told them just to turn around and I called in. I couldn't stay home alone, with no car (not that I am able to drive too well right now!), so I had to go up to the hospital with everyone else. And what do ya know, I start having HORRIBLE contractions. They kept on, so I called the Dr. Of course, they have no pattern and go any where from 5 minutes to 20 minutes apart. :( But i had them ALL DAY!
On Saturday the contractions were few and far between but the ones I had hurt very badly. But my nesting kicked in and I cleaned all Saturday afternoon and evening (resting a lot in between). I didn't make it to church Sunday because I cant stay out of the bathroom. So, I clean some more. I felt great last night.
But this morning I woke up feeling like crap. My back and ribs are killing me and I cant get a good deep breathe. I am so uncomfortable sitting at my desk. I want to lay down. But that wont be happening any time soon.
I go to the Dr in the morning. He has got to do something!! I cant take any more. And there is NO WAY i can make it to my due date. He is out of his ever loving mind!!
So, please say lots of prayers for me. I am stretched to my limit.
