Another day down of laying on my couch...when I think about how long I have been laying on my couch (or in a hospital bed) I am somewhat amazed at myself. I think it is 110 days on strict bed rest now...whoa. My saying that keeps me going is, "when you must, you can"...b/c really do I have any say in the matter? I guess I could get up, but I would be endangering both milli and myself...so I must lay here, so I will. I can honestly say I am sick of laying here though...real sick of it...I go to the doctor tomorrow, and I hope that we can come up with a plan...and a date closer than 10/10, which is my current scheduled c-section...I am really looking forward to meeting milli, but I am so excited to not have to take medicine any more, and to not have to immediately lay down after a shower or going to the bathroom b/c my heart is pounding out of my chest...I mean, when I am laying down my heart is beating about 90 or so, so when I get up my heart is well in the 100's...it will be so nice to be able to shower longer than 4 mins...and I just can't wait to be useful again. Stephen spent all day trying to get our house clean...I just want to help! or to clean it by myself...I have already agreed that Stephen gets a few months off once I am able...

My friend Allison came and saw me on Sat...so Sat went by really fast, oh and then my friend Beth sent milli a present in the mail...mail is always exciting...I am expecting quite a few packages this week, which is a result of my total boredom last week...

My mom is coming tomorrow and staying until Sunday...unless I have milli, then she will be staying longer...but I guess only time will tell when this is going to end...my contractions are pretty strong, and I usually have about 4-8 contractions every hour...they usually aren't painful, but they are very strong...and when they are mixed with cramping they are painful...oh one other thing, which I guess is a good sign, my belly button finally popped out...which I take to mean that milli is still getting bigger in there. According to my calculations, he should weigh 5 lb 10 oz tomorrow when I go to the doctor...I will keep you posted.
