BED REST!


Well as most of you know I was put on bed rest on Monday after having contractions and dilating on Sunday night. They monitored me in the hospital a bit on Monday and gave me some medication to stop the contractions. Things have been good since then. I have a few contractions here and there but nothing crazy. Bed rest hasn't been too bad since a lot of friends and family have stopped by and made meals which helps pass the time. I have another appointment today at 2 to see if I am still the same or if I have dilated more. I will post the update when I get back. The good thing was I was able to make it through my shower on Sunday and I got a lot of neat stuff. I am very excited for the baby to be here now. We got the nursery set up thanks to the help of my mom and friend Christy. Chad and I scrambled (he scrambled, I laid in the bed) to get all the birth stuff ready just in case, but I think we are ready now. I will be on strict bed rest for this week and next week I will be 36 weeks and the doctor might give me more freedom the next week. We will wait and see I guess. I will update when I have more information. The pictures are of the babies room, my family that threw the shower for me and then me at 33 weeks.
