I am 29 Weeks today and am still as nervous as ever. For the past 4 weeks nothing has changed. I am still bleeding, and randomly contracting, and my cervix is still 1.67 cm long. I stopped working about 3 weeks ago which I think is a good thing. I think that is why nothing has changed. Of course I am bored almost everyday at home doing nothing but I have found a few things to pass my time. Private Practice, and Disney movies are just a few things; I have also been sewing like a mad man. I have made his curtains, crib blanket, two other blankets and lots of burp cloths. Luckily I have friends from work that call frequently to see how I am.

I cannot believe that it is the end of August, I really only have about 8 weeks left, then I am full term. So far the plan is I have a regular appt every week that will consist of a cervical ultrasound, a regular ultrasound every other week, and an NST and some blood work. I will also have a second appt just for an NST. With these NST's they will be able to predict if anything is wrong with the baby and be able to get him out as soon as there are any signs of distress. Because baby A is blocking my cervix they feel it is too risky to deliver me vaginally, because of this I will be a scheduled C-section (well hopefully scheduled). They still don't think that I will make it full time, but I hit the first benchmark at 28 weeks and I just need to get to the 32 then 36. I am almost there.

I know I look GREAT!! my hair is not done, I have no make-up on and I am getting big. |
Timmy started school again, and I think he is going to have a really good class. He has hardly been home with the City pool still open and all the SEP's and back to school nights. During his "spare time" he has been putting all the nursery furniture together. He has been so worried about me and our baby. He even has a stress twitch.
Last week I fell, it was actually kind of funny but Timmy didn't think it was at all. I was walking in to Mcdonalds to fill up my water after going through the drive through to get him dinner before his Softball Tournament. I had a really cute outfit on with some platform shoes. I was walking across the parking lot and tripped and fell right in front of the car in the drive through. I was scared at first; I was shaking, and all bruised up and I thought I was bleeding. Well I actually peed my pants because of all the pressure. I hurt for a few days after that, luckily everything was fine.
We sold America's it was kind of a sad day. We put it online on a Friday night and sold it Saturday afternoon. I had that car for 7 years longer than Timmy and I had been married. We had a lot of good memories with that car.
