A scare yesterday...

Yesterday I had a little scare!

I monitor for contractions twice a day for one hour. Per the doctor I am only aloud 8 in one hour. Well I had 6 around 2pm and then at 7pm I had 9! I could only feel them when they were long, but they didn't hurt. I had counted 5, but when the nurse called me back she said she had seen 9. So I gave myself a "extra" dose of meds and rested for a half of an hour and put myself back on the monitor and that time I had 6 which I only felt 2 of them. So I was much happier.

This morning I only had 2 and they were MILD! So I am hoping when I get back on the monitor in a few minutes I will only have a few, because I don't want to go through that scare again!

Thank goodness my mom didn't mind coming a hour away to sit with me while Jack was at work.

:) Later
