Bed rest

Here is another update. I went to the doctor twice today. We were on the fetal monitor once again and the contractions have stopped on the monitor although I am still feeling them. The doctor has put me on bed rest indefinitely. She said that we at least have to get me past the 34 week mark which is Tuesday. If we can get to the 37 week mark then we are in the clear for Gabe's arrival. I am not even able to go to church which means that the next few weeks are going to be very boring! I have already been in bed for the last three days and tv is getting very boring. Anyone have any good books they want to loan out?!! Gabe is still doing wonderfully so that is a huge blessing. We have another appointment on Monday morning to check on things. I am sure that I will update again sometime that day. not like I won't have time :-)
Jason has been absolutely wonderful! He took off work for the last three days too. He has been doing everything that has needed to be done. He is doing the running around that normally two of us have been doing. I know that he is tired but I really have no idea how I would be getting through all this without him.
The girls leave on Sunday for 2 weeks to see Anna and Paul and Melinda. This too we are seeing as a blessing. They will be able to have a fourth of July that they can enjoy since I will not be able to go out that night. Also they will be able to have some fun and Jason will get a break from the running all at the same time.
Until the next update.....
