Prego Update
Yesterday I had contractions off and on all day and felt yucky. I ended up getting a little fever too, so Jerime made me call in. They told me to go to OSF and get some fluids and have the baby checked. On the way there I had contractions every 7 minutes. I even had one walking up to L&D. As soon as I got on the monitor I didn't have any. Eventually I had like two but that was hours later. They gave me two bags of fluid, some tylenol, and some meds for nausea. The baby was doing just fine. They checked me too and I'm 1cm, 50% effaced, and baby is at -2 station. I couldn't believe it!! I have my 36 week appt. tomorrow where they will check me again, so I'm anxious to see what he says.

Updates
So I finally figured out how to post on this thing after my first post. My glucose tolerance test went well. I scored a 71 and 140 or higher is bad so I did very well. No betes.
Reagan had emergency surgery in January. The hernia that she had repaired at 2 months old returned and her ovary came through again. Dr. Reid said that the whole area there just didn't develop correctly so she put in extra stitches. I hope this is the last of it. She will have her pelvic kidney (same area) checked in May to see if it is growing and developing correctly. I really hope so because I don't want to face another surgery or kidney problems. She is healing well, still complaining of pain a little, but mostly back to normal. She is finally sleeping through the night after almost 2 years! I just wonder if that hernia was bothering her her whole life. Poor thing. But now she will say she's ready for bed, grab her teddy, and run to the bed. She's usually asleep within 10 minutes. It's awesome. Too bad I can't sleep at night to enjoy it.
I've been up every night either in pain, not being able to breathe, or just plain old insomnia. I have six weeks or less (hopefully) to go. And I'm starting to get really really fat so I'm anxious to be done. Jerime is also gaining a lot of weight. He bought some SlimFast yesterday, but said he's not ready to diet yet.
We bought carpet for the entire upstairs. It's getting installed on the 29th, so we're rushing to get the upstairs painted. I finally finished my winter quarter at Robert Morris so I'll have 6 days off to get a lot done. Jerime is finishing up his quarter right now, but he gets 2 weeks off of school.
That's about it for now.
