Last Week on Bed Rest!

This is my last week on bed rest. I guess it is semi-bed rest this week. I went to the doctor last Thursday and she said she wants me to do a little more this week so I am ready to go back to school next week. She also wants me to stop taking the medication and only take it if I feel like I am having a contraction. I have not taken any since Sunday evening. I am trying to not overdue it by doing too much but it feels good to be able to get up and do the dishes or laundry. We even got the little guy's room ready! (I will have to post pictures.) I go back to the doctor Friday. Hopefully it is good news. They want to do another Fetal Fibronectin test. Supposedly if this test is negative (which it was last time) I won't deliver for at least 2 weeks. They say it is pretty accurate but I don't see how it could be. Hopefully it is negative though.

I have another baby shower Sunday! It is down in Rochester. I am a little nervous about being away from home and the hospital but if I do go into labor you would think I would have at least an hour to get back to Elkhart.

I also start back at school on Monday. I am a little nervous about that too. It is hard to come back after having a substitute. You can have the best substitute but the class just isn't the same afterward. I will have to go in Saturday to get everything ready for the week. After I go back though we only have 1 and 1/2 weeks until Thanksgiving Break and then 3 weeks until Christmas break. I am sure the little guy will be here by then. That doesn't leave too much time at school!

Here is my 32 week picture too. Don't judge it too harshly. I know I don't look the best but it was taken the day after I got out of the hospital.
