Baby Update
Monday night we thought the baby had dropped. Tuesday I continued to feel "blah" and the back pain seemed to change a little and was pretty bad. Then that evening I had quite a few contractions right after another before the medicine should have worn off, so I quickly took some more and laid down. This morning we decided for peace of mind to go ahead and go see the doctor 2 days early. Plus Jacob wanted to go and we had a friend call this morning and say she was free this afternoon. It worked out perfectly to go today and have someone able to stay with Keely while we went. The doctor did an examination this time and everything looks good. No dilation, no effacement and she isn't engaged and her heartbeat is strong. I just feel so much better now. He reminded me that having some contractions now is normal, which I understand that but did give me some more medicine if they continue to come too much and told me to continue to rest. It looks like I am already on my weekly visits though, but that is ok with us at this point. So next Wednesday we will have our last ultrasound, which will be the 4D ultrasound. That will give us some more peace of mind, but I'm thankful to have the peace that was brought with this visit. Thank you everyone for thinking of us. We are really grateful, at least at this point, that we don't need to head down to Bangkok! There was a lot of anticipation among Jacob and I as we were waiting to see the doctor wondering if we were about to make hurried preparations to go to Bangkok! We are grateful we are not!
