Star Patient
I wsa more than thrilled to know according to my Dr I was the star patient on Saturday. Apparently everyone was having lots of drama on my floor. I will take the uneventful days. This week started out eventful on monday with my measurment which was 3 cm. So ok, Then I did the glucola drink for gestational diabetes and it cam e back positive. The next morning at 6 am they did an extended test which included a blood draw, drinking the drink, and then 3 more blood draws every hour. I felt so yucky and littly sisters heartbeat didn't like the fasting and drama. Her heartbeat wasn't as responsive so I was on the baby monitor most of the morning. After eating I started feeling better by lunch. Good news t came back negative so I 'm fine. I has some increased contractions on Wed so they increased my medicing. I had a big outing to the lobby for my bedrest suppo group. There were ladies wheeled out on their beds, in recliners, I was in my wheelchair. Hey we will go to support group in any fashion. I'm curious what people think when they see us sitting around in all of our capacities. I got my fingernails painted and heard interesting stories. One gal has been here for 10 weeks. Grandma is loading the airplane as we speak.. Rocco and JD will be so sad. Rocco has been around his grandmas for almost 1 1/2 months since they both came to visit prior to this. This week he will start to go to some friends houses. We are so thankful for great help. Today I'm 28 weeks and 3 days. Looking forward to watching the Macys Thanksgiving Day parade, the dog show, and CNN special on Heroes as we hopefully will celebrate week 29 on Thursady. Roccos entrance day...I'm not going anywhere until for sure 30 weeks. ON monday I will be measured again. I sometimes forget why I'm here and I feel frustrated but I have to keep my perspective and think about little sister and then I feel better. off to my biscuits and gravy!
