Another update

This post is in addition to my 28 week post...

I had a Dr's appt yesterday. He wasn't too concerned with the contractions I had the other day... said he'd be a lot more concerned if I was feeling them. He did say I could most likely prolong my pregnancy if I stop working... so, that was not a difficult decision to make. I was given a couple of days to work from home to finish some things up, but after this Friday, I'm done! The good thing is: I'm not on bedrest, but will not be working. But, believe me, I'm definitely going to take it easy... I'll do a little laundry, sit a little, make my bed, sit a little, etc.
The Dr. has had me double up on the blood pressure medicine and it makes me really tired, so I'll probably being taking a nap every day too!

As far as work goes, I have a lot of vacation, personal and sick time saved up, so I will be getting full time pay for the next 6 weeks or so. After that, I'll go to 60% pay for a little while too...

I hook up to the uterine monitor twice a day for an hour each time, then wait to hear how many contractions there were. The past few days, there haven't been more than 2 in an hour, which is apparently nothing to be alarmed about.

Another thing the Dr said: if the babies were born at this point, there would be a 95% chance that they would survive with no long-term health problems. It's somewhat comforting to hear that though we want them to cook a lot longer!
