We are at 29 weeks! I never thought that this would be a celebration point but it is. I now spend most of my day laying in bed on my side or in our lazy boy watching Luke play. I also take Procardia every 6 hours, or every 4 if I am having contractions.
I fell down 4 steps last week, while I was on bed rest and of course went into the hospital to be watched. Baby is doing great but I had "uterine irritations" even though I had taken anti-contraction medication only 4 hours previous. The nurse thought that they would be full blown contractions if I had not been on the medication.
I'm really not sure where all of this is headed and am anxious for my next doctor's appointment. I am very thankful, however, for all of the help that we are receiving and all the help others have pledged. My doctor wants me reclining as much as possible, which makes it impossible to care for my little guy, make dinner, do the laundry, or go shopping. We are just grateful and humbled by the gift of time that others are giving us.
