Table Manners
March 18, 2010
It’s a beautiful day!! We just returned from our weekly appointment, and we had a big improvement this week! So much so, that my doctor is allowing me to eat meals at the table with my family!! WHAT??? I know … INCREDIBLE!! It’s the little things that count, you know? No other restrictions will be lifted until after 28 weeks, but hey, it’s a start!
The baby is getting bigger (as seen by my ever-expanding belly), and in fact, our ultra sound tech said that the bed rest babies get big quickly. They have lots of uninterrupted blood flow, and tend to be bigger than those not on bed rest. So – hey, that’s more good news as far as I’m concerned!!
Here’s a profile picture from today’s appointment:

Oh, and one other thing – I’ve been released from weekly appointments, and will now go every two weeks based on today’s appointment, and my fetal fibronectin test last Friday! So … no update next Thursday, we’ll all have to wait it out until Thursday the 1st of April.
I don’t want to push my luck, but I’m definitely hoping some of this good fortune will spill over into my NCAA bracket. That’s not asking too much, is it??
