Today I got to go sit in a wheelchair outside for 15 minutes. The weather was great and the fresh air felt wonderful!! The only thing missing was the get-away car when they left me unattended outside! Now I get to shower everyday and every now and then I can go outside for a few minutes if the weather is nice. I feel like I have gotten a promotion!
The new dosing of the medication seems to really be helping with the contractions. Now I only have about 3 an hour which I still don't feel. The downside to the new dosing is that they have to give me medication every 2 hours (even in the night). So I am not getting much sleep. I guess I can just think of this as baby boot camp for when the babies come! The other exciting thing that happened today is they removed the IV from my arm. Yeah!!! My arm was really starting to get sore.
One thing that made me sad today is that I missed Rhonda & Derek's baby shower. I really wish I could have been there! I am sure I will get to see all sorts of pictures from the big party!
Tomorrow they are going to wheel an ultrasound machine into my room. We will get to see how much these little girls grew in a week! I hope they are growing like weeds in there because we need them to get big and strong. Hopefully everything will look better than it did last Monday since we have been able to get these mystery contractions under control. I will post the details from the ultrasound tomorrow.
