Hi! So, around 2 or so I called my doctor. She said to try some tylenol PM if I wanted to try and sleep and to take a bath to ease the contractions. I am cautioned against using anything more right now because it could have affects on the baby if she is born today.
I finally took some at 4:30 or 5 and dozed off around 5:30. But I woke to the contractions and my son needing me to help him get ready for school at 6:30. With only an hour sleep and the contractions picking up yet again, I am exhausted. So I am going to finally take that warm bath and try and rest before Alexis gets home. Because Isabella isn't 32 weeks she said if I go in before I am fully effaced that they will stop it again, so it's best to wait as long as possible at home. Once they pain bring me to tears, I know it'll be time to go in.
This morning I watched A Baby Story and it made me cry because the baby got to stay with her parents and go home with them. I want that so much! But I know I may not even get to hold her and she will be in the NICU for a long time if born now. Though she finally made it to 31 weeks, it's still not 32 or 34 weeks. Alexis was 34 weeks and she was still in the NICU for a while. How much longer will she stay?
My mom wants her to wait until December because she said it'd be nice to have a Christmas baby, which would also put her at full term, but I am not sure what will happen. All I know is it's in God's hands now, and He knows what she and I need.
So, I am going to go and try and relax before I have to do anything major!
Still in pain,
Bri
