Bedrest!

We had another appointment yesterday and after checking things out, the Dr. determined that I am continuing to progress toward dilation [although not dilated yet] and that I should stop working, stay at home and take it easy. I can do light things around the house, like help with dinner, make myself some lunch, and light dish washing, but I'm not supposed to overdo it. I don't actually have to be in bed all day, thank goodness, but should be in the recliner, on the couch or in bed alot of the time. It's going to be hard to just take it easy and not get up and do things around the house! Luckily this came at a time where Christmas Eve and Christmas are just a day away, so at least I'll have something to break it up a little. At least I'll get to see some people over the next few days for the holidays...that will be nice!

She still kept her original prediction from last week of delivering at around 35-36 weeks. I'll be 34 weeks on Christmas Day, so that's not too far away! I have another appointment next Monday and we'll see how much further I've progressed. It's so wild that we are having our baby so much sooner! Our bags are packed and all the baby stuff is bought, so we are just waiting now to see when he's going to make his big debut!
