Wednesday, May 13th

I had my monthly appt today. Well, everything checked out like my weight gain (3 lbs since last month), my blood pressure 102/75, the ultrasound of baby (got new pix!). The baby is very active. The feet are down by my cervix and the head is up. "It's" standing. I am measuring again, "right on track" of where I'm supposed to be. The baby is estimated at 1lb, 3oz.

However, we have one small issue. My cervix is shrinking (2.9 cm and they want it 3.5 or higher) and now I have to go back in one week for another visit. They put me on moderate bed rest, which means I can still work but when not working, I am supposed to be laying down to take the pressure off my cervix. I have a sinking feeling that when I have my appt next week, I will be put on full blown bed rest. This is going to be so hard!! I was doing some research online just now about this issue and now I am totally freaked out. We need to cook for at least a couple more weeks for everything to be okay.

Rick made a good point to me on the phone just now by saying, it can't be that bad or you would be on full bed rest right now.

Please pray for us.
