Bed Rest until delivery

As I write this blog, I am patiently waiting for the arrival of our son as I lay around on bed rest. For those that have had to go on bed rest for longer than what I am experiencing, more power to you women. I went for my 37 week check up and thought I would be coasting like the other appointments. Unfortunately, I got a different response. The doctor told me to go home and do absolutely nothing that night and be back in the morning. My bp was not good, and they did not like the swelling. On Wednesday, Michael, mom, and I went back. I saw the doctor, and he did not come back so quick. I knew something was not right or going to be good. Well, little did we know he said you are going home if your bloodwork comes back okay or you are staying in the hospital. They admitted me and by the nurse's reaction to my arrival and findings after examining me, she really thought I would be staying. However, the blood work was fine, and they sent me home to do absolutely nothing. Ugh!! We went back this morning thinking for sure they would keep me, they sent me home for bed rest over the weekend! We will see the doctor on Monday, and they will examine me to determine the next step: go home, get put in the hospital, or have baby. The doctors have all said that J.B. will make his arrival in the next couple of days. At this point, C-section is the most probable form of delivery because my cervix has not changed. Michael will keep you posted!! As for now, I must just chill as that is very hard to do. As Michael says,"Your daddy is coming out in you right now."
