Just over two weeks ago, I went into pre-term labor (at 27.5 weeks). I was ambulanced (is that a word?) to Columbia Regional Hospital (about and hour and a half away but equipped with a perinatologist and NICU) where they drugged me to stop my contractions and hopefully stop my dilation. Eventually it worked. The first night my dear friend, Tamra, drove all the down to stay with me in the hospital. The next day, since I was stable, I was moved to the antepartum unit; I'll be here until I am at least 34 weeks. Timing was awful with Rob going right into finals, but people have been so kind: watching Robbie, bringing meals, movies, books...sending cards, making calls and visits--thank you so much for all of your love and support. I am amazed, really, that it has not been harder for me--there are even some things that I enjoy! Anyway, I just wanted to thank all of you for your prayers and support. Next time I see you all, I'll have another little boy!!!
