Almost Here

Well yesterday afternoon I began having very regular contractions and we went to Labor and Delivery. My contractions were 2 minutes apart and becoming strong. Since we are only at 35 weeks Greg and I decided to try and stop them. After 2 shots my heart rate went too high to continue but with time the contractions slowed. Further tests showed I was severely dehydrated. After a few bags of iv fluids my tests were better and the contractions were weaker and further apart. We opted to go home and just wait. I will now go every other day to test my ketone levels and liver/kidney enzymes. They will most likely have to deliver earlier than our anticipated March date since my body can't keep up with both of us.

So today has been spent in bed trying to recover from last night. I had actually planned on posting over Ben's room, but that will wait til I feel better.

Hope each of you had a great day.
