33 Weeks and Modified Bed Rest!!!

Ok, so today was my 33 week appt. You may remember that I have been going to the Dr every week since Christmas due to my history of early delivery. Well today I went in for my normal check. I have been having some major contractions for the last two weeks, but didn't really think anything of them. Well then this week, they started to become a little more frequent and intense. I have also been having the nice stabbing pain in my cervix area, and back pain with some of the contractions. Well once I told my Dr all of this, she decided she wanted to check me just to be safe. The good news is the baby is head down, the bad news. I am dialated to 1cm already, soft, and the babies head is "right there" to quote my Dr. So she wanted to put me on total bedrest but I cannot use all my FMLA time before the baby is even here. So she is putting me on modified bedrest. Basically, I can only work part time, 4 hours a day until I deliver. The rest of the time I have to sit on my butt and do nothing. Randall loved to hear that...LOL...I go back in a week to be reevaluated. I have a feeling I will really be catching up on some blogging. I will keep everyone posted.
