4/4/08

no baby but boy am i sick!!!! i've been out of work since Wednesday - missed a baby shower the girls had planned for us yesterday and have been told that they've taken a picture of the cake and are eating it without me today (not that I'm allowed to have cake anyhow), but what luck, huh? i guess i have whatever it is that everyone else had before Easter. Stuffy head, runny nose, sore throat, cough - it sucks. Dr. C. told me to take tylenol, use afrin and stay in bed. and to call him when the contractions are 6-7 minutes apart and he'll meet me at the hospital! :-)

the visit on tuesday to the ob went well. was 3 cm dilated (yes, i know how long you can stay at 3 cms) and 80% effaced. i think with all the bed rest i've been getting this week, she'll stay put for at least another week. i totally thought i would go yesterday because my niece left for her senior trip yesterday a.m. the husband's friend had wanted me to go the day before because it was his birthday. (his twins were born on the husband's birthday - so it only seemed fair!). i missed a niece's birthday, a nephew's birthday, friend's birthday, the day of departure, next up is another nephew's birthday on tuesday. we'll see how it goes. i am going back to the drs on tuesday at 4. will let you know how we're progressing.

have a great weekend!
