Slowing down!

March 18, 2009 Jessie

Well, I’ve almost made it! 35 weeks today and Evan’s still in there!  Late last night we did have a little bit of a scare with me having some contractions at home, so off the hospital we went to make sure the little booger wasn’t trying to escape!  But after being there for 2 hours I was allowed to go home.  Everything looks good!  Of course, all the stuff that was going on at home decided to stop once we go to the 3rd floor… isn’t that how it always works?

I’ve just got to slow down (and according to the doctor… drink a lot of orange juice *shrug*).  So today I have an unexpected day off.  I’m already down to 3 days a week so the slowing has begun.  Evan just needs to stay in there at least 10 more days because of Amanda’s wedding!  And after that I’ll be full term and he can come any time he wants as far as I’m concerned :)   I’m very anxious to meet him!

But while at the hospital, I watched a couple come into the triage room to get checked out… that poor girl looked miserable.  And a short time later the nurse lead them both to a birthing room.  And then Josh and I both sat there for 2 hours listening to extremely mad babies in the nursery scream their little lungs out.  It was just all so surreal and it made me nervous for a little bit because I realized that in a couple of weeks I’ll be going through all this for real!  The line on the contraction monitor won’t be staying as still as it was last night.  I guess it was our little test run.  But hopefully, the next time we go up there will be to bring our little guy home :)
