Silly baby...

Doctor has sentenced me to rest...no more work! Apparently I have high blood pressure or possible preeclampsia so I am going to be a good girl and take it easy. I was in the hospital for a couple of hours last night being monitored and everything seemed to be okay so I am at home now resting and will be going stir crazy in no time! I am a little relieved that I don't have work anymore, I was pretty tired by the time my day was done. Joe and I are very ready to meet this little one and are ready to get this all over with. It is really hard to go into the hospital and not know if "this is it" or not. I have had two nights now where I have woken up with a lot of painful contractions. The dr. says that baby is coming soon which is excited. I am dialated to 2.5 and 100% effaced. Baby is really low and everything is showing signs of going into labor soon so I am keeping my fingers crossed. The nurse last night said when she was feeling my belly that baby was petite but everything looked good. She guess by feel that the baby was somewhere between 6lbs. 8oz. and 7lbs. 2 oz. and as far as I'm concerned that isn't too small at all! I have been really impressed with the hospital and staff at Southwest. They are amazing and very kind, Joe has said multiple times how great they are. You can tell my lovely husband is on edge these days. He just can't seem to settle down, it is really quite adorable because I think he is more anxious than I am at this point. I have another appointment on Thursday so we will see what they say!
