29 weeks, 5 days

This week has been pretty good. The doctor says I'm doing very well on the oral medication and that my contractions have really slowed down.  I asked her what her prediction was on how far I will go, and she said 34 weeks! She said as long as the boys cooperate, there is no reason I couldn't make it that far. That was encouraging to hear. She said I will have another ultrasound on Monday to calculate weights, measure cervix, etc.
 I've been approved for one thirty minute wheelchair ride a day. So, yesterday Megan brought Emersyn out and wheeled us down to the lobby to get some Starbucks. I miss her so much! I love seeing her, but it is so hard when she leaves. It just breaks my heart!

My brother, Cory, and his girlfriend, Katie are in Indy for a visit. It is so nice to see them! When I first was admitted, eighteen days ago, I put a star on the date they were coming, and made that a goal to reach. Cory has always been so supportive and such a wonderful big brother. Katie is so sweet as well. I'm so glad Emersyn will have 3 brothers to protect her like Cory has Megan and me over the years. I'm sure a little teasing will be thrown in along the way. When Cory walked in today I was laying in bed. He commented that I wasn't that big. I told him to just wait until I stood up. That was all it took. As soon as I got up, he couldn't help but laugh!  That's ok, he's the only one I'd let get away with it:)
