Early Riser

I was up most of the night last night with contractions, they were different than what I normally have, they are becoming more painful. I finally got up for the day at 4:30, since I knew I wasn't going to get any sleep. I proceeeded to do what any sane person would do at 4:30 in the morning - clean my house from top to bottom! :) I did call when the clinic opened and got in to see my doctor right away this morning, things have changed a little, but nothing drastic, so that was good news. I'm only a few days a way from how far along I was when I delivered Isabella, but I have a feeling (and so does my doctor) I'll go longer this time, maybe even full term! I'm still on the drug, Terbutaline, to stop contractions (or try to slow them down) and I hate how it makes me feel, it has some awful side effects! The good news is, my mom is coming out today to stay for a couple days, and she's bringing one of my niece's with to play with Isabella! And when my mom leaves on Thursday, my sister and her kids are coming out to visit for a few days. Lots of excitement around here!
