I knew a post would come at some point where I didn't report everything with this pregnancy being all rosey, but I was hoping it would wait a little longer :)
Yesterday's doctor appt didn't go 'great'. On the way down as I was talking to Scott on the phone I had quite a few contractions while driving to my appt. Once I arrived in Longview I had a couple quick errands I needed to run, and while out and about the contractions stopped. Life was good again! When I arrived to my appointment she asked the typical questions: How was I feeling, was the baby moving, etc. The baby had seemed to drop a little overnight and since it moved down I had noticed it hadn't been moving quite as much. I wasn't concerned because at some point it gets so tight that it slows down it's movements...I assumed the time had arrived. She decided to do a non-stress test since she thought the movements shouldn't have slowed down THAT much overnight. As soon as I got hooked up the baby started rocking and rolling, so life was good...until the contractions started again. I had 3 within 15 minutes and to say she wasn't pleased was an understatement. She let me go home but told me every time I had one I had to write down the time and if I had more than 4 in one hour I had to head to the hospital.
GRRRRR. It's too darn soon for this to happen. With the twins I got placed on bedrest at 27 weeks. I realize I am 5 weeks further along, but most women make it all the way to 40 weeks....and I want to be one of THOSE women!!! Not to mention, how much 'bedrest' will I really do with the twins???
Please keep me in your prayers and pray that I stop having contractions and make it to 39 weeks without any more problems. Just once I want to be 'normal'!!!
