They went over the stuff that the perinatalogist sent over and they agreed that I might have to deliver sooner rather than later, so I got sent to the hospital today for my first NST (non stress test) and steriod shot and I get to do another tomorrow. Plus I go in on Friday for another NST at their office, then Tuesday I get an ultrasound and biophysical profile a the office, Thursday I get another OB visit and NST test and Friday the 11th I go back to the perinatalogist...All while staying on bedrest and drinking 1 gallon of water a day................Lord give me strength.
So DH who has been sleep deprived Saint came with me today, we went into the local hospitals L&D unit, which I hadn't been to since Christopher was born, and leave it to Davide to remember the nurses...LOL
anyway, they hooked me up for a 20 minute NST which ended up lasting an hour cause they ran out of steroids (damn athletes LOL) and we had to wait for the pharmacy to deliver.
So during the hour, I had 2 contractions...and plenty of baby activity.
The steroid shot wasn't that bad, just hurt my butt a little....now I get to do it again tomorrow afternoon, oh joy.
Tomorrow is also first day of school; so I will try and do a kid related post cause all this pregnancy drama is bringing me down.

Awww...Anna. I know it's been a rough pregnancy. While I am genuinely concerned and say little prayers for your new baby, I have to say.. "welcome to the world of GIRLS!" UGH they are a whole different breed. Sweet and kind and crazy and dramatic adn you're gonna love it. Think ballet classes and her being picky on what to wear, and having a whole container of hair accessories- it's so thrilling and crazy at the same time. And oh...my....goodness wait til she gets your husband wrapped around her little finger. Sylvie can do NO wrong in daddy's eyes. You are gonna fall in love with your husband all over while he gushes over this beautiful little girl. I feel so strongly that your LO is okay, and will be okay. You will spend the next year raising all of your boys with this new little life and they will love her. Hugs to you as I know she will be coming soon, and I KNOW with all my heart she is 100% fine. Just has as much spunk as her momma.
Oh, and whatever color font you are using is really hard to read! Try black on this brown background?
You seem to be keeping a pretty good sense of humor about all this. I commend you!! I am still praying.
Whatever it takes to keep our little ones safe, right? Even before we meet them! It's a rough go, but keep up the great work mamma.
