I dont keep up very well!
Im not a big fan of writing so I go forever without updating and then make up for the lost month with 5 posts in one day! So here we go! For those of you who dont already know I have been off of bedrest for a couple weeks now and it has been amazing! When you loose your freedom and regain it you feel like a millionaire! I was so excited to be able to take care of my girls again on my own. The only rules the doctor gave was to not overdue myself and to not do any housework. Wow no housework! I love it! So when I cant take the house anymore I call Pam (mother in law) and she comes over and catches everything up. Right now I really have the life! Well that is if you forget about the stress that can come with worrying about the little one in your tummy who sometimes thinks it is ready to make an early appearance. I am still taking medicine every 4-6 hours to help keep the contractions to a minimum. So far taking it easy and taking terbutaline have worked well. Im still not dialating which amazes my dr every week. I have days with very few contractions and other days I will have them every 5 min. As long as I dont start dialating I can stay off bedrest. I go every Friday to be checked and determine if my freedom stays or goes. Im so thankful the Lord changed the direction of this pregnancy. It really looks like I will make it past 37 weeks which would be great. Scott and I would like to make it to 38 weeks which is Sept 20! Less than 3 weeks! Time is flying! Sept 18 is my bday which would be the coolest bday ever to have a baby but a full 38 weeks is always better for the baby! I cant believe I will have a very tiny one again in a couple weeks! Im very excited to hold Caleb or Karly but at the same time I wish time would just slow down. Ive truly enjoyed this summer with the girls and the simplicity of a toddler and preschooler to a newborn. If you know what I mean! But there really isnt anything compared to holding a newborn!
