Dr. Appt-29 Weeks, 3 days

Hello all,  I've been staying at my parents house for the past several days, and they have been great waiting on me!!:) Nate is busy with harvest and working late, so it works well for me to be over here right now. Last night was a tough night. I started having contractions, and was having 6-7 contractions an hour. I called Labor and Delivery and they said to drink 2 large glasses of water and lie on my side. I did this, and it helped but did not stop the contractions. After several hours they did slow down. The nurse told me to try to sleep and if they were real contractions, they'd wake me up. So I made it through the night, and went to see my dr. today.

My dad drove me to my appointment today and we ran into every dead end we could have! Hwy 12 was a dead stop on the way there, so we had to turn around and go I-5. On the way home, the road was closed and we had to go all the way through Walnut Grove....a windy and bumpy ride!

Dr. appointment went well. My blood pressure was normal. I gained another 2 lbs, for a total of 61 pounds...WOW!!! The babies are all doing great. Olivia has surpassed both boys, and is now the tallest AND the heaviest! Here are the baby weights:

Baby A: 3 lbs. 11 oz. (Olivia)

Baby B: 3 lbs. 10 oz. (Hunter)

Baby C: 3 lbs. 4 oz. (Cooper....we think)

My dr. said he thinks I'll make it to my modified due date of October 11th. Because that is a Saturday, we scheduled the delivery for October 13th. I really wanted the 12th, but it was a Sunday, and he said the pediatricians really don't like delivering on Sundays....so if all goes well Monday the 13th it is!!
