Today's NST and OB apt

Well today's preggo activities totally wore me out.  First, I went in at Baptist for one of my NST's for this week.  All babies are doing great, and during the hour long monitoring I had one contraction.  I knew the contraction was coming and was thinking, "of all times for me to have a contraction."  I was thinking this, because mine are so far apart they really shouldn't count.  But, anywho it was charted.  All in all the NST went well.  Just within the past week they have noticed that the babies are totally snug in my tight belly.  They have no room to move around much anymore.

We then went to pick up Beau early and grab some lunch before my doctor apt.  One reason I wanted to pick him up early is, because he has not got to go with me to a doctor apt in a while and he loves to see the babies.  The other reason is, because we had to.  My doctor apt was thirty minutes before he would be getting out of school, so that would not have worked.  Anywho, Dr. H was really happy that I am still doing pretty good.  She did say that she really can see me going to 36 weeks like this. :)  One thing she reiterated was not to be doing a lot of bending and stuff like that.  So dish washer and laundry is on the back burner for me for a while. :/ This is definitely hard, especially with how I like to keep my home. LOL.  Oh well, gotta let these little bear cubs grow some more. :)  I asked her when she suspects I will or if I will go into the hospital for bed rest before the 36 week mark, and she said that if I stay consistent that I could be at home up until it is time.  So we are still going from dr check to dr check.  This way really makes me happy to be honest, because I feel like the babies will come on God's watch, and not mans.  :)

Here is a pic of me at the NST just to give you all an idea that have no idea what I am talking about.  There are three fetal heart rate monitors, and one for me to monitor uterine contractions.
