Well the ultrasound went really well today. It was late this afternoon which was okay as BP was pretty darn active. I was able to see all kinds of movement, baby was rolling, moving arms and legs, so amazing. We saw 33 seconds of diaphragm movement so I think BP scored well again, maybe another 8/8 on the biophysical. The med student actually performed most of the exam with the tech instructing and helping. No 3D pictures this week, hopefully we'll have some next Monday. No measurements either, only every 4 weeks, so either next week or the week after... Heart rate was  149. The most relieving part of the whole thing was that the fluid was normal and actually up again from last we, 16cm so that is awesome news!! I'm excited to hear what Dr has to say tomorrow.

Today Rachel was my nurse and she was actually one of the first ones to come in when we first arrived 16 days ago. She came in that day to offer Kevin and I some comfort and reassurance. So I was excited to see her again today. I don't keep them very busy as I have just about everything I need. Today I did get kinda bored in my room, mostly because I was waiting for them to come get me for the ultrasound. I am half way through my new book and am excited to finish and start another one!!

I had a couple of visitors earlier this evening, Amanda and her mom stopped by to say hello and had a gift bag full of things to keep me busy - pedicure set and french manicure pen, colored pencils and a sketch book, puzzles book, gum, fruit snacks, chapStick and some other things that I am forgetting. She was in town for her weekly check-up, she's 35 weeks along, so our baby's could be born close together. Such a nice visit!! Thanks for the gifts and thank you so much for thinking of us and stopping by.

Kevin has started a project in the nursery, I didn't know he was such an artist. It's so cute of him to be doing what he is! I can't wait to see how it turns out. I'm not sure what he has in mind but I'm sure it'll turn out great!!

Only 16 more days to 34 weeks and Dr said when we make it there she may send me home to bed rest there. I don't think she will let me go back to work, we'll just have to see I guess. But that was awfully exciting news!! Baby is still doing well on Non-stress test twice a day and not contraction - I'll keep praying for good results as often as I close my eyes, and being in bed all day that is quite a bit. :)

Forever and ever I'll say a little prayer for you BP!!
