Im sure most of you have heard that I was in the hospital over the weekend well here is the story.... I had a regular doc appt on Friday and he checked me and said that I was 1 1/2 CM dilated and 50% effaced, for those of you who don't know what that means ... its not good. So he told me that I would need to go on bed rest and stop working. They gave me a shot in my butt that would develope the babies lungs just incase they came early. WOW what a shock. I felt fine and was just so concerned about the babies. I called my job and told them that I couldnt work and informed family and friends. I relaxed that day and then Saturday morning at about 5:30 am I started to have what I thought were Braxton hicks contractions, well they lasted about an hour and were getting really frequent. I called my doc and he said to go into the hospital. I went and they admited me. They put me on meds that stopped the contractions and the progress of labor. They also gave me one more of the lung developing shots for the babies. I stayed in the hospital all of saturday and sunday and came home this morning. It has been an emotional ride but I know I have lots of friends and family praying for me and the babies. I have another doc appt on Thursday and I will keep everyone updated, in the mean time I will updating my blog. I havent been on for the longest time so expect some cute pics to come.

I am so glad that all is going well. Those shots for their lungs work wonders!

Yikes! Mommyhood comes with lots of scares along the way. God bless! I'll keep you in my prayers.
We were fasting and praying for you too. I was more and more relieved the longer you stayed pregnant.
