On May 29, we went to the hospital for our routine check-up; I was just going to have a fetal heartbeat test. But I guess I was having some contractions and my cervix was thinning to 1/2 the size it was supposed to be. I ended up staying the week in the sick house, on a magnesium drip to stop the contractions. I watched a lot of movies and did some reading, John and friends brought me lots of treats, and I learned how to say "see you tomorrow" to the nurses (bis morgan). It was a long week, but the contractions appear to have stopped and I've been taking it easy at home. The doctor, midwives and nurses were very good to me, with only a few language barriers (like heartburn, ice and cereal/milk!!). They don't use ice here, so when the nurse figured out what I was saying, she said....ahhh like at McDonalds! My friend brought me some ice the next day!
Pre-Registration...we loved listening to the heartbeat!! Now it really isn't exciting, and I've had so many ultrasounds it's like uh, ok! We did get a 3-D ultrasound out of the ordeal, so that was special!
My home for the week! The bathroom shower was great!!! Wish ours was that big! I loved the seat in the shower! Notice my sexy tights that I wore for the week to prevent clots! I'm bringing sexy back!!!!
