Breech!

I just got back from the OB and I'm not having any more contractions...... very good news! I do have to keep taking the Brethine until 37 weeks just in case though. I asked my Dr. what position the baby was in and he felt the butt down low in my pelvis. Little Jackie Chan is breech and that explains why I see my stomach contort all hours of the day. I felt elbows and such with Jack but this baby has been making my stomach jerk for weeks now. That cracks me up and explains sooooo much. I go back to the Dr. on Aug. 6th and will likely set my c-section date for the original Sept. 4th.

Bedrest belly pic

I'm a little over 33 weeks now and here is what "we're" looking like these days. Lauren asked me to upload my last belly shot with Jack. Here it is for comparison. Tell me what you think!! But to be fair, I was 38 weeks in that picture and only 33 weeks in this one.... so keep that in mind :)

Trip to L&D

It's just fitting that I'd have to make a trip to L&D with this pg since I went twice with Jack. I'm 33 weeks and have been having braxton hicks contractions off and on for weeks now. I guess most of it stems from lugging a 30 lb toddler around and dealing with staying hydrated in this fine heat. Last night however I started to get really intense conractions and began throwing up so we went to the hospital to get checked out. I got two doses of Brethane to stop the contractions last night. I followed up with my OB this morning and was still contracting so now I've been put on an oral dose of Brethane and bedrest till Thursday. I'll get monitored again and we'll see how everything is looking. The good news is that Jackie Chan is moving around like crazy and was doing great on the monitor last night and today. This baby is definitely an active little thing and now everyone else gets to see just how much he/she is!!!
