Well, we tried to have babies the other night!!! Thursday night I started having contractions about 5pm and they got progressively closer and closer together and then started getting pretty painful. We tried all the tricks: water, restroom breaks, IV, a shot of Terb, shots of Demeral to ease the pain and nothing was working. They were less than a minute apart-one would end and immediately another would start. Such excitment! By 2 am they decided to move me over to Labor and Delivery because they were concerned that if I was in true labor my cerclage was going to tear out. (sorry) I was completely bummed that I had to move over to L&D because I wanted to stay with my nurses-all that were on duty that night were in the room with me. They wouldn't leave my side-they were so awesome. So off I went and really once I got to L&D everything started tapering off. I stayed there until late on Friday morning. I was so ready to get back "home" to my room and bed. My doctor doesn't think I will last another week but Brad seems to think I am going to continue to prove him wrong. I am not so sure :) Hence the picture: by this point, I just feel like I am chugga-chugga-choo-chooing along! I got my IV out this morning and I am trying to stay hydrated and off my feet...of which...are HUGE!! I am SOOO swollen-Dr. said it's from all the fluids and should go down. We are also watching my blood pressure too b/c it is slowly creeping up...again another side effect of the fluids at this point. Thankfully, my doctor is on-call this weekend which couldn't make me happier in case this is the end of the road. I am still hoping to hang on as long as possible but I am also at complete peace if A and B make their appearance soon. I could have never truly imagined that we would get this far when we got here at 19 weeks!

So please continue to pray for us-whatever the road may be! Can't wait to post their arrival though!!
