Thanks Scarlet!

Amy That's so sweet that you guys are so supportive of your m-i-l. I'm very close to my in laws but I know many people who are not. That's great that you got the spot at the daycare center. I'm calling the camp to reserve spots for my boys today!

Lauren GL at the Drs today!

Thought you guys would find this funny but I had dreams most of the night about this restuarant in NYC (saw it on the food network) that served peanutbutter sandwiches - they make their own pb including flavored pb (I dreamt about the chocolate flavor ). Anyway, I think I'm going to try to talk dh into stopping there on our way to NJ on Sunday - not sure how out of the way it is, we usually drive through Manhattan so . I'm having lots of cravings with this pregnancy - peanutbutter, cheese, and Chinese food. It's a wonder I didn't gain 100 pounds already!!

Update on Barbara's twins

So I heard from Barbara today. Unfortunately, I'm having some problems receiving her text messages and they are all jumbled at times, but here's what I pieced together:

Baby A: William Joseph 5 lbs 7 oz
Baby B: John Joseph 5 lbs 10 oz, 19 inches

Barbara is doing well, but trying to stay off her feet, so she won't be able to update for a little while, but she is thankful for everyone's support.

William and John!!!

William and John!!! Congratulations to Barbara!!! It sounds like they are both of great sizes and I hope all is well!

Audra: flavored peanut butter?!?!?! That sounds awesome! You'll have to let us know if you end up stopping there!

All went well today with my MIL's eye surgery! I was quite happy to hear that when I got a page from DH.

I left early again today. Around 3:30 I was done for the day and completely wiped out. I came home to relax for a bit and then DH and I are going to a restaurant we've been wanting to try for a while and finally got reservations!

Happy weekend everyone!!!

Oops I forgot - my appt went well. Had to wait a long time for the doc (I was there 2 hours) but the baby was cooperative. He/ she must have been happy - I ate a big lunch and had a gingerale before going - tasted so good - I'm trying to stay away from too much soda but all for a good cause

Congratulations Barbara!!!!

Shawna I am so glad to see that both your boys are home with you now. I know you must be elated!

Audra - I am glad to hear that your appointment went well today and that your little one was cooperating.

Hope everyone has a great weekend. Mine will be anxiety filled as I await Monday getting here to see what more the OB has to say about when Valerie will be here.

I have lots of pages to catch up on but I kinda had a baby

It was Weds night, I went to itch my foot and I got a sharp pain at the top of my belly and then it got worse. That was at 11pm, by 11:15 my bp shot up to 165 over 110 and I kept getting contractions that covered the whole belly. I called my dr, woke up our 4yr old, got to the hospital by 12:15ish. They hooked me up to the monitors, contractions were down to 5 minutes apart by 4am which was considered early labor.

They gave me magnesum to relax me and make the contractions stop - I was out of it right away from it but then the contractions went to 3 minutes apart. I thought they would just admit me for a 24 hour urine test since my protein levels were starting to show again...by 6am his heartrate started to show signs of stress and they talked to my dr and they made the decision to get him out.

She showed up around 7am? In operating room and he was out by 8:10am She prepped me that since he was 36 weeks, he might not cry, might have to go to NICU right away (same thing as our first) and to our surprise, he came out kickin and a screamin!

He was 5lbs, 8 oz, 19 inches long - I got to see him all goopy, give him a kiss and my hubby went with him to the nursery to watch him while I got closed up and wheeled to recovery.

He was good for the first 12hours but had issues with keeping his temp. so they put him in the NICU on an IV and in a incubator. He got out yesterday at 2pm, stayed with us till 11pm last night and then it was the first night my husband and I got a full night of uninterrupted sleep! (they didn't stop the magnesum until 9am Friday on me so I was woken up every half our from the time I had him until then).

So, we are in the hospital, my son is at home with our inlaws, just sent my husband home for some stuff, bring them back so they see him, just recovering! I might get out tomorrow, still waiting for his circumsion to be done today so I might not get out till Monday.

Hope everyone is well! Hope I can catch up, it looks like more babies arrived this week, yay!
