Yet Another Update

For those of you who are interested, we are coming up on the 36 week mark of my pregnancy and the Dr. has informed us that we can go off the "anti-contraction" medicine. I have no idea who to spell it without standing up and going to find it, which I am not supposed to do (and I am incredibly lazy right now). So I think Thursday will be the day that we go off the medicine. After that, who knows what will happen. I have no idea what my body will do. to tell the truth I am a little nervous since I am already dialated to a 4/5. I am hoping my body will give me some good signs that it is in labor. For those of you who don't know, I don't really feel contractions. Luckily I did this time and that is why I went into the hospital, but with all of my other babies, I had to have the doctor tell me that I was in labor, or my water broke. So....hopefully we will have some good news by the end of the weekend.

Hunter's birthday is Monday, so I would like to have the baby before then so they don't have the same birthday, but you can't plan these things (or at least I can't).

Praying for you this week! I am so glad you made it to 36, and now you can relax a little. Well, as much as you can relax getting ready to have your 4th boy. Good luck!
