Little Mr. tries for early release.

On Monday of this week our little guy tried to escape a bit early. At just 32 weeks it was a little early, so after a shot and a double dose of medication, and an overnight stay in Labor & Delivery, we are back home and "taking it easy" for the next 6 weeks and 4 days--IF he waits that long.

Actually, Kaderick seems quite happy where he is and was completely uneffected by all the commotion. It's all that extra fluid that's tricking my body into thinking the time has come.

I don't have a history of pre-term labor and don't go running to the dr over every little twinge, but as it turns out, it was the right decision to make on Monday and a good thing we went when we did.

 

 

Today, at a follow-up apointment, ultrasound and nonstress test, we received all good news. Baby looks healthy and happy--he is a little chunk weighing in it nearly 5 pounds already. He passed his stress test (he doesn't seem to stress easily--maybe that is his daddy coming out in him) and the fluid was down significantly, which is really good news.

 

Needless to say, I am having a hard time nesting from the couch--but I'm trying to get all the last minute odds and ends tied up and everything ready without doing anything. Thankfully, I have a great family, awesome friends, ect who help me out. I make lists and give orders. Smile.
