Increase in Intensity

Last night wasn't as boring as I would have liked. I was up pretty much most of the night due to having several pretty intense contractions. I finally had to get a shot for them around 5 am. The shot helped get the contractions under control again. I have been having the usual number of contractions off and on today throughout the day. Several of the contractions have been increasing in intensity. I have told my nurses that I am really starting to feel some of the contractions. They are keeping an extra close eye on things just to make sure everything stays under control. My nurse thinks part of why I am contracting so much and starting to notice them more and more is because I am still relatively small since I haven't gained much weight this pregnancy. The babies are getting so big that they are literally running out of room in there! Grow babies grow...we need you to be big and strong!!! I have an ultrasound tomorrow. Hopefully it is good news!! I will post tomorrow about what we find out from the ultrasound. I sure hope I get more sleep tonight!! Thanks again for all of your thoughts and prayers!
