so bored
Quick update...
Monday night started having contractions ten minutes apart.
Tuesday they got much worse at work. Went to the Dr. Got monitored and got a shot to stop contractions, which by the way hurt. Got sent home on bed rest. Went back to Dr. Thursday, got sent to the hospital for monitoring and an ultrsound. Was there until almost nine at night (from 3 in the afternoon). More bed rest. Now on pills to keep contractions at bay. Back to the Dr. tomorrow again.
Good news, baby is riding this out just fine so far and doing great. Ultrasound says he's 6 pounds 2 ounces right now - that's big (average at this stage is 5 pounds). He's not due for 5 more weeks but we think he'll be here in two to three depending on his lung development.
Okay, I'm supposed to only get up to go to the bathroom, so I have to get back to bed now. Miss you guys!

Enjoy the bedrest. The Bed. The Rest. My youngest is 6, and I'm just now getting over the sleep deprivation from her first few months!
Hope all goes well for ya, please keep us posted!

Blimey... don't know about you. But, to me, this feels like one quick pregnancy! Glad you're taking it easy for the next few weeks. Take care!
BTW, did you know that I was born 5 weeks prematurely? I was a tiny wee thing when I was born and spent some time in an incubator. Awww, etc... You'd never know to look at the size of me now, haha :-)
