Jess, I hope Charlie is feeling better soon!
Stace, I have my fxd that DH gets the job... raises are always great, but especially when there is a new baby around!!!
Leese, so exciting! Glad you had a good appointment today! 5 weeks is no time at all!!!
AFM, baby Emily gave me quite the scare today. I have been off work for the weekend/holiday and then called off yesterday as I have been really sick (with a sinus infection/bronchitis.) I went back to work today and started having really painful/intense cramping off and on. I called my Dr and they wanted me to leave work and to come and be seen. They checked my cervix and said it was soft and maybe barely a fingertip open but didn't seem too concerned about that. They put baby and I on a monitor and baby is doing well and I showed no signs of contractions while we were there (of course I wasn't feeling anything while there either.) They seem to think that I was having contractions and told me to go home and rest and make sure to get plenty of fluids (she thinks maybe I have gotten a little dehydrated being sick and that is what was causing them.) I am allowed to go back to work tomorrow but they want me taking frequent breaks and resting as much as possible when not at work. I have an appointment already scheduled with my specialist on Monday for my 32 week ultrasound so they want me to keep that and have them check my cervix as well at that appointment (with ultrasound.) I am supposed to call them if it starts up again but otherwise am to take it easy as much as possible. I have a feeling at least one of the people I work with is really pissed off at me... but I am trying not to care... I needed to make sure baby Emily and I were okay. (Some of the people I work with are less than "kind" anyway and I am so ready to be done with it all!)
