Another Tentative Plan

Okay, we all know that plans mean nothing... just when you make one the game changes completely, but nevertheless, it feels good to have one. Delrose let me know this morning that she had spoken to the doctor and that they had a plan for me. Tomorrow, they will take me off of the Procardia. They will keep me all day Sunday to see if anything happens. On Monday, they will hopefully send me home, knowing I will be on red alert for labor signs. They will check my cervix again maybe Sunday. As long as I'm not significantly more dilated, I could still go home. I can't complain. It's a good plan. I just hope either a) I just go into labor on Sunday or b) I don't do much of anything so I can definitely go home.

I will have to make sure to have people at the house with us. I'm already dilated to 4cm... so there is potentially very little time to get me to the hospital. After my 22 hour labor marathon with Ivey, I'll believe that when I see it. But, I definitely don't want to give birth on the side of 316.

I am so glad that my little baby girl will be 35 weeks tomorrow! I want her to be able to be in the room with me, nurse and snuggle, and then go home with us so we can all be together. I didn't think I would make it to 35 weeks, so this is excellent! I think I'll be able to make it until Monday... Mom is going to bring the kids home tomorrow and then they can come and see me! It has been 6 days since I have seen them... and over two weeks since I was up and moving around and playing with them. They can keep me until Monday, but then I want to go home!!
