Weekly appointments start

Well today I had my 34 week appointment.  Today starts the weekly appointments and NSTs.  NST= non-stress test.  They hook up 2 monitors; one for baby's heart beat and one to monitor my uterus for contractions.

Well go figure I am having contractions, I pretty much knew that, but they're fairly random.  Thankfully not too horribly strong to warrant a trip to L&D (Labor & Delivery).  They weren't any where near as big and painful as the ones I was having with the boys, which for those that don't remember, my contractions with them started at about 30 weeks, and caused 2 trips to L&D.  And tomorrow I will be 34 weeks pregnant, that means that the boys would be born 5 days from that point in the pregnancy.  I hope to make it much much longer than 5 days!

But I was supposed to come home and keep my feet up and drink tons of water.  Which I did do for most of the afternoon but that resulted in a totally wrecked house ha!
