31 Weeks Today!

By

We have made it to 31 weeks!!  Now to make these boys behave until week 34 (Nov 19th).  So far they are behaving and are very happy. 

At least I am not on strict bed rest!! I can get up and about as much as I want.  I was so happy to hear that, but they won’t let me go shopping on the 3rd floor Sad smile. 

We had an ultrasound this morning and the Doctor said everything looks good, we will have another one next week for their growth measurements. 

I am not liking being stuck in the hospital.  Wishing I could have my puppies up here with me to snuggle that would make things soooooooo much easier Smile.  But they are in excellent hands with Aunt Patty and Aunt Shannon.  I just hope they don’t forget about their mommy.

Well last night was a little rough.  I felt a few contractions and that wasn’t fun at all, but they checked and I wasn’t dilated which was a relief.  They gave me something for the pain and that helped a ton and I was finally able to get a few hours of sleep.  Then Baby B decided to lay on some nerves and caused a  TOOOOOOOOON of pain.  They did an ultrasound and he was just fine so they had me lay on my left side and gave me pain meds and then this mommy slept for hours!!!

I was given my second and last steroid shot to help the boys lungs in case they are born early.  I am no longer on any IVs or monitors 24/7 and can FINALLY eat!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I ate breakfast in record time today and already have my lunch order ready hehe.

Daddy is going to work for a little bit today and I’m just going to hang out here and cook these boys some more.
