Drama Update

This afternoon John and I made the much anticipated trip to the Dr's office to see how things were going. I have to admit I didn't sleep much last night and the morning seemed to drag on and on. I've had a lot of anxiety over the situation with this little boy and if he should arrive early.

Much to John's surprise we were able to get right in for our ultrasound and the tech made no bones about getting the measurements needed to find out the fluid levels. Much to our relief things have improved, my fluid levels went from a 7.8 up to a 9, 10 is ideal but we'll take a 9. It's always been a lucky number for me. Anyway it felt like a huge weight had been lifted off our shoulders and we went back to the Lobby to wait out turn to talk to the on-call Dr. 10 minutes later we found out that our Dr was running extremely late and knowing the results of the ultrasound and talking with the receptionist-who spoke quickly with the dr-we were given permission to leave. (Traffic at 4 in the afternoon is horrendous as it is.) I have an appointment with my Dr next week as well as another ultrasound to make sure that things are still well-in the meantime I am to continue Drinking and taking it easy and staying with the not so strict bedrest.

I can't end without telling Leslie thank you for watching the girls. It was one of the few times I have returned home and found smiles and laughter instead of tears of anger for my absence. Leaves my heart feeling happy!
