Melissa's contractions
Well today was definitely a Friday the 13th for us. Melissa starting feeling contractions all day and decided to go to the doctor. They ran a test for a particular hormone that is supposed to indicate labor within the next two weeks. Guess what? They found it! So she was prescribed Tributiline and bed rest for the next two weeks. We are at 34 weeks today and they say 36 weeks is a full term baby so that's what we're shooting for. Of course bed rest is a little difficult with a 2 1/2 year old running around but we'll make it work. We have plenty of friends signing up to help and I have already warned my work about taking time off. Please keep Melissa and the baby in your prayers so we can wait as long as possible before labor. Each day the baby stays in is very beneficial for its health and ability to come right home with us. We'll keep you posted as things progress.
