well that was fun

so, i'm still pregnant. that status was in serious jeopardy over the weekend. about 6 on saturday evening, i noticed i was having contractions 3-5 minutes apart. five hours later, after getting disgrace to come over and the husband home from work, we went to L&D. i wasn't progressing much, and i'm past 34 weeks, so they sent me home.

now, i know a 34-weeker will eventually be fine, but probably in the nicu for a while. so we just kept telling baby girl to stay put for another 2 to 3 weeks.

last night around 10 or so, the contractions slowed a lot and the intensity dropped a LOT.

this morning, i feel a lot better and, though i'm still having a few contractions, they're not intense and not consistent at all.

thank heaven.

I'm glad you're still pregnant! NICUs are no fun to be in, I'm sure.

Whew. NICUs, while full of amazingly competent people, are no fun.
