I had another doctor's appointment today... The appointment was originally scheduled for Thursday, but I was having some concerns so I got in one day early.After looking things over my doctor decided to let me off bed rest. She said the baby and I both look good so I can resume my normal acitivity. If I go into labor she will deliver the baby. I was totally shocked! I thought for sure she was going to put me in the hospital on bed rest there until Monday (when I hit 37 weeks gestation), but she didin't!! I'm excited at the thought of being able to have the baby, but I'd personally prefer to wait until at least 37 weeks or a little longer to give him some more time to gain weight (he's approx 5lbs now) and fully develop.

After being out and about today (for my dr's appointment and lunch) I realize that my tolerance for noise and commotion is much lower. I haven't been out of the house as much this past month, so the world just seems to be moving really fast and I not moving that fast. Ha. As I was telling D, I still feel the same. Just because bed rest has been lifted doesn't mean my symptoms have magically gone away. My plan is to gradually get back into my normal activity...as "normal" as I can be this pregnant. If I find that I can't do something I just won't do it. Like I told D, I'm not going to go out and jump on a trampoline to get things to progress!!
