Good Day!

Yesterday, day 2, was a good day! The monitoring sessions were short and sweet today. I had two 40 minute sessions and an hour long session at night. As a bonus I got to see these girls on an ultrasound last night at about 8 because the nurse wanted to make sure the heart rates she was tracking were 2 babies and not just one baby. They have moved again! They are now laying on top of each other transverse (across my belly horizontally) with their feet kicking me on my right side. They have probably moved again since then...very busy babies! I love that I get to see their cute faces even if it is just for a few minutes while they figure out where they are.

The VERY best part of the day was when Jake came to see me! Bobby brought up some dinner so we could all eat together but Jake wanted to be snuggled, snuggled, snuggled. He nearly didn't even eat because it was too much for him to sit down when he wanted to be hugged and kissed. It was the best ending to my day I could have ever asked for. He is the best thing in the world. He stayed for about an hour and wasn't upset when I left them at the car to go home. I even managed not to be upset too! My wifi at the hospital hasn't been working so I was really upset that I wouldn't be able to FaceTime with Jake to say goodnight before bed but Bobby and I tried it ourselves last night and finally it is working. I hope it stays this way and that it was just an issue that was worked out.

 

These are my new "legwarmers". I am supposed to wear them whenever I am in bed and luckily I don't have to wear them when I am sleeping at night. They will make sure I don't have any blood clots. Right now I really like them-they are like a mini leg massage. In a week though I don't know....

They weighed me yesterday and I actually lost weight so my nurse said that I need to eat more, more, more. I honestly don't know how that is possible! She keeps telling me that I can order whatever I want whenever I want. It sounds like a dream, right? But honestly it is a little stressful! Today holds more monitoring and a new nurse. Last night my night nurse told me that all my nurses were talking about me saying that I am one of the most delightful patients! Who doesn't like to be a favorite?! I can imagine they have some very tough patients. Labor is not fun and doesn't always bring out the best in women. I have heard 3 life stories so far and it helps to pass the time. They have all been really wonderful, helpful, and very kind.
