After my last blog I ended up back in the hospital for 5 days. IV’d and drugged, with persistant contractions. I am now off work and laying low. Paying close attention to my body’s signs for contractions, pressure, cramps, and back pain. I can move around more than before but I still can’t really do much. I did make it to my baby shower though. Shelly and Gary put on a wonderful party with the help from my Mom and Aimee. It was great there was a terrific turn out and we received massive amounts of baby gear. The nursery is jam packed with baby bouncers, swings, clothes, toys, blankets and lots and lots of diapers. The only thing we needed to go buy ourselves was breastfeeding gear- which wasn’t that big of a deal. I bought a manual pump since I don’t think I will need to use it that much only on the rare occasions that I leave Miles with Keith or a family member. The days are going by very fast and I am doing a lot of little craft projects to keep myself occupied. I just wish I could clean the house- like deep clean. I can pick up but have been banned from the vaccume. It’s hard for me to rely on Keith to do the cleaning, since he has a million other projects that he wants to get done and of course he is still working full time. I guess there will be plenty time for vaccuming later in life! (little do I know)
