UPDATE

Well it has been a month since I last posted on here. We have had a lot going on so here's an update...

Last Friday I went to the doctor for a checkup. I have been having frequent urinary tract infections this pregnancy and really didn't think much of it. Well, I tested positive for another infection so they decided to do an ultrasound just to make sure everything looked ok. After the ultrasound I am paitently waiting for the doctor to come in the room, when she finally comes in I see a huge folder in her hand that says Pitt Memorial Hospital. I thought I was headed home, but I eneded up in the hospital for 2 days.

The ultrasound revealed that infection in my body had caused small contractions that I couldn't feel. These contractions caused my cervix to thin out and for me to dilate. I am only 25 weeks pregnant so this is considered pre-term labor.

I spent Friday and Saturday night in the hospital and was released around lunch on Sunday. I am on strict bed rest for 2-3 weeks and then hopefully moderate bed rest until I reach 30 weeks. I can get up and down to use the bathroom, take a shower, and get something to drink. This is just based on a day by day basis. I will be going to the doctors office for an ultrasound every week and the doctor I see that day will let me know what I can and can't do. Hopefully my measurements will continue to look good and sooner than later I will be able to start slowly moving again.

I am so thankful that we have family so close and that this is not a busy time of the year for Gray. He has been so helpful so far. I've just got to keep myself entertained for the next few weeks and take each day at a time! I will definitley keep everyone updated!!!
