Well...

This morning while we were in church, I started having these strange feelings. I tried to push it out of my mind, but they just would not go away. When Igot home I called my mom and told her what I was feeling, and I asked her if she thought it was contractions...we thought that maybe they were so we began timing them. I was having them about every 30 minutes and they were lasting anywhere from 2-7 minutes. I called the hospital and they wanted me to come in so they could hook me up to the monitor. So we went and they hooked me up and I was having some contractions but Jack was tolerating them just fine, they also checked me and I am 1 centimeter dialated. They kept me there for awhile and just watched, and the contractions were not becoming regular or intensifying so they told us we could come home but that I am on strict bed rest for the remainder of the pregnancy. If Jack were to come now he would most likely be okay but I would have to deliever in Winston-Salem (they have a NICU), which I absolutely do not want to do. If Jack hangs on for 2-3 more weeks I can deliever at Hugh Chatham with my doctor and Jack will without a doubt be just fine. So it looks like a boring next few weeks for me. It is a good thing I have such a wonderful hubby who doesn't mind waiting on me! We go back to the doctor on Tuesday, day after tomorrow, and hopefully Dr. McIlveen will either set a date for induction or will give us a more concrete time frame. I will keep you updated.....
