Week 29

Today's Unit 2's week 29. Looking forward to hitting the 3x weeks! Today's been long and tiresome for me. First morning baby monitoring went well (9:30 am-10:30 am). However, I was contracting too much and had to take nifedipine pill which resets the contraction monitoring to another hour. Usually I only get it at the night monitoring not daytime. Anyways, that pill wasn't doing such a great job today. So, had to take a new set of pills. Yay! I took indocin. That resets the clock for another 30 minutes. By the time I was done, it was 4 pm. After that, I had my US.

Cervix got a bit longer, but Specialist said not to hold on to that too much because my cervix is "dynamic". It can shrink or increase depending on when they do the US. Baby is good; weighing at 28 weeks at 29 weeks. Not a surprise b/c I most likely won't have a huge baby like with Lil M. Got to see some cool 3D pics of her. First thing sonographer commented was on her full lips! Ha! Same thing like Lil M. Man those full lips sure are strong in our genes.

I'm tired and grumpy today b/c I've been stuck lying down all day being monitored. I was feeling sleepy and gassy because I couldn't sit up too long after lunch since I was getting monitored right afterwards.

Specialist pretty much said I'm pretty much gonna be in hospital at least until 34 weeks if I can get weaned from magnesium. One day at a time...
