Am I feeling better, or NOT?

This morning, I am holding down my food and fluids and the bathroom situation is under control. And, I am drinking more fluids than I ever thought humanly possible. So, one would think I am feeling loads better, however, I am really nauseous still and have had a severe headache since the night of the 27th. I don't know if it is from dehydration, fatigue, or both, but it is keeping me awake. It's like I have intense pressure in the top of my head, and I have been unable to sleep longer than an hour at a time since being in the hospital Saturday. Who knows, all I know is I want to rest and can't, I want the headache to go away and it doesn't, and I want to eat and not get nauseous, and that isn't happening either. I'm also am still have regular contractions, about 10-12 minutes apart but they tend to be irregular. I'll have them for a couple hours, then be fine for a few hours. The best I understood from my three cervical checks at the hospital, I was effaced to 50 %, but not dilating. I go to the doctor Friday and every week until the baby comes now. Officially to week 35 now. In 2 weeks I'll be to week 37, and in my opinion baby boy can come out, I hope that's his plan as well! I'm ready for him, and I'm thinking he's getting me ready for him as well. And, it's looking like he'll be arriving in 2009!
