26 1/2 week update and belly pic!!

Our weekly appointment went OK. I've been on full bed rest for one week!!!! I'm already going crazy but this will all be worth it in the end!!!!

I am dilated, my cervix is open BUT it's still measuring the same as last week so that is a great thing. He is also now concerned about baby girl. Her stomach is measuring small. He said if I was not on bed rest for my cervix I would be on bed rest for her condition now. He said there could be several reasons for this, we will watch her more closely from week to week.

Bed rest is going alright. The hardest part about all of this is being dependent on other people and not being in control! Ha - everyone knows this will teach me lots of patience!!! He said to continue what I am doing and he will see me next Monday. He also did an FET test checking to see if I would be going into labor soon, this test came back negative. WOO HOO, I was excited to get that call!!! He said I was having contractions while he was checking me, I could not feel anything – so bizarre that I could not feel anything!! Right now we are just trying to get to week 28, I know the babies have a better chance at week 28! One week at a time is all we can do.

I am very thankful that we are stable; he said I am doing the best thing for them – stay on my backside!! We can use prayers for these babies right now.

Richard is doing a fantastic job taking care of me and his babies!!! He has a full job right now with me! Trust me I am taking it easy on him....

I'll update next Monday after our appointment. Right now I better finish my registry and start ordering stuff online! :) Thank goodness I have a computer, this is my outlet!!

Feeling these babies inside me everyday is a wonderful thing, I can't even put on paper how happy this makes my heart..... This is all worth it!!!
