Day 12 Update

Good afternoon! I just had a great visit with John & Ginger. I am very impressed with Ginger's willingness to get out to see me. They even brought me 3 types of candy! My mom had to leave today to go back to work this week. I really don't know what we would have done these past 11 days without her. She along with Tim's parents really helped us a TON with Callie!

Everything is still about the same. Yesterday morning I had some contractions, but I didn't even know I was having them. They gave me a shot of the medicine to stop the contractions and it worked right away. My nurse, Vivain, told em that she was very impressed with the way I handled the situation. She said she saw anxiety coming, but that I calmed myself down very quickly and she thinks that helped everything to stop. That was encouraging!

I haven't had much leakage over the past couple of days, so if that continues, the dr might do the test that could possibly send me home. We shall see if that's in the cards or not. I doubt I would be able to get the same quality of rest at home that I'm getting here, but it would be nice to sleep in my own bed. At this point I live for the delivery of fresh, clean clothes my mom has been bringing me b/c they smell like home. :-)

I will be 29 weeks in 2 more days (on Tuesday)!! At that point I can set a new goal. I will have another sonogram on Wednesday (I think) that will tell us how much amniotic fluid I have and how much the baby has grown in the past two weeks. I'm hoping he will turn and not be breech anymore, but we'll see about that. This kiddo already has a mind of his own!

I'm looking forward to my afternoon visit from Tim & Callie. We're going to have Mama's pizza and a wheelchair ride!! Hopefully it won't be as eventful as last week's. We're going to get back in the groove of life this coming week too. Callie is going back to Ms Carol's, and Tim's going to travel one night. We're going to try to find a new "normal" to keep Miss Callie on track and not too out of the ordinary.

Now if I can just keep from eating this entire bag of gummy savers in the next hour, I'll be great! Have a great Sunday.
