Baby Update

So I had a follow up visit with my Dr today. Everything is just fine. Apparently I have an irritable uterus, which makes sense because the rest of me is pretty irritable as well. The doc also said that I don't have to be on bed rest and that if the baby decides to come that they won't do anything to stop her because she is far enough along! This is great news. Here is to hoping I get an early Christmas present!

Hospitals Suck

We took another lovely trip to the hospital this morning. I woke up at 4:15am with some painful cramping in my back and lower belly. I called my Doc and they told me to go to Labor and Delivery. Aaron and I got dressed and headed on in. They hooked me and baby up to monitors and watched my contractions. After a few hours they decided a dose of terbutaline was in order to stop the contractions. They gave me a shot, which made me shake and made my heart race but it stopped the contractions. I am now stuck on bed rest for the rest of the weekend until I can talk to my Dr on Monday.

I know I haven't posted any pictures of the giant belly yet but I will soon. Aaron and I had a great photo shoot with Kate Moss from peekaboo photos and we should have the pictures back in a few weeks. She is also going to take newborn pictures once this baby makes her long awaited debut.
