Not last night.

So the Terbutaline shot worked. I still had quite a few contractions but they mellowed out to 2-3 per hour. Mike stayed with me, just in case.

Dr. T came in to do an ultrasound at around 11:30pm. He just wanted to make sure our big guy was moving around ok if he was going to push me to wait until Saturday. He said he looks good. He's got a huge head and he's a big boy, especially considering he's still a month early!

So the plan is still in place. If too many contractions before then, more shots of T to try to stave us off until Saturday afternoon. I'm good with that as long as my body is. That way my parents will be here, Mike is staying now until the delivery, Lila is with her other Grandma and we're all set.

Crossing my fingers that we'll hold out until then. Boy is my body ready to do this! My head is just so spacey from the Mag, contractions and shot, not to mention the stuffiness I have due to my 2nd lingering cold since I've been here in the hospital! My tummy is just sore from these monitor belts and all the contractions. And boy am I ready to get out of this bed!

Am I nervous about tomorrow? You bet. But it is what it is so we might as well be onto the next chapter with this baby boy. We are ready to meet him. We are so hoping he's gonna be in good health. But we can't find out where he stands while he's still in kicking my tummy!
