Bed rest (even partial bed rest) is lame. I've hung out on the couch most of today, watched lots of t.v., mostly flipping through channels, started reading a book, checked me e-mail at least five times, and starting make a list of all the things I still need to do to get ready for this baby!
I finally admitted to myself that it's time to take it easy - yes, this is a shock for those of you that know me. I hate to slow down, I felt incredibly guilty today while Jared picked up the house while I sat here. I had some killer contractions Thursday and yesterday and thought I might need to go to the hospital. I would really like to avoid another premature baby. I figure, I've been there, done that, hated it, would rather avoid it! So the plan is to take it easy - and see the doctor again on Wednesday. If I start dialating I'm going to head to Logan to stay with my parents at least until I'm 36 weeks - I dread the thought of having a baby in the middle of nowhere. I barely made it to the hospital with Jerrick and I really don't want a baby born at any mile marker on I-80!! Especially a premie!
At least we're getting closer. Hopefully we'll all survive!!
