I haven't heard from you in a while. I don't have the best news. I went in for my 27th week ultrasound on Aug. 4th and the babies are doing great. They both weigh 2# 4oz and are in the 54th percentile. However when they did the va___al examine my cervix is shortening. So he has me off of work. I had to have steroids taken on Thursday and Friday and I go back tomorrow for another va___al examine to see if anything has changed. I sure hope not. I figured they where going to come early but not this early. I am hoping tomorrow he is going to tell me exactly what I can and can't be doing. I am not sure if I am supposed to be on hard core bed rest or not. I had Andy go out and buy me a laptop yesterday so I didn't have to keep crawling the stairs to use the computer. I will e-mail you tomorrow and let you know how everything is going. How are you doing?

Hi jb! Good to hear from you, but I'm terribly sorry about your news. If it makes you feel any better, I have a friend who is in the same situation. She is 28 weeks and is on semi bed rest. But, things are getting better. So, try to keep your head up and look on the bright side. They are both at good weights right now and would do wonderfully if they had to come early. I can't imagine how scary that can be. I am in my 25th week right now and am feeling great. I am babysitting my girlfriends 5 month old for three weeks while she is away, so that is tiring me out a bit, but it is good practice. It's nice that you were able to go get a laptop. That'll be nice if you are on full time bed rest. But, just relax and think positive thoughts. We went out to the Farmer's market here on the weekend and it was really hot. You should have seen my hands by the time we left! I had a hard time making a fist! But, that was the first and only time that has ever happened. You should e-mail me at aeburrough@telus.net and I will send you a belly pic. I went and bought myslef a bikini to ward off the heat! I've never owned a bikini but I figured since people are going to be looking at my belly, I might as well ten the thing! It looks really good, though.
I hope things get better for you. I am sending out all my good thoughts to your little ones. And hey, ground them when they are born for putting you through such c___p!!!
E-mail me at home.....
Erin
