I am officially more pregnant with Little Number Three than I ever was with Abi - huge milestone!!! In fact, when I saw my high-risk OB last week (at 33+6 weeks), he told me that after 34 weeks they would not perform tocolysis (ie, wouldn't stop labor if it happened) and the baby had a 100% chance of survival. I immediately felt more relaxed at that point and stopped stressing - although I am not really ready for the baby to come just yet, at least I know that he/ she will be healthy and okay if we have an early arrival. I was officially discharged from the high-risk clinic that day, but I think I still would deliver at Sacred Heart (instead of Eglin) if the baby were born before 36 weeks, because Eglin doesn't have any kind of NICU care.
Here I am now:
The daily contractions continue but not as strong or frequent as before. I have also had 3 separate episodes of STRONG contractions (2 today, in fact), that very much remind me of going into labor with Sam. I hope I'm imagining them, or that they are just Braxton-Hicks. Although I know the baby would be fine if born today, I have too much to do before Christmas to go into labor!
Fingers (and legs) crossed for 4+ more weeks!
