::::THE HOSPITAL:::

Day one: So, this day wasn't supposed to end up with my being admitted to the hospital but it did! I woke up at 830, went to Sage Brush ( My docs office) to turn in my 24 hour urine collection so they could test it. Also, i had to get my blood drawn to go along with those results and let the nurse practicioner look at my swelling and see if it went down after 2 days of bedrest. She apparently didn't like my swelling in my feet, and my headache so she sent me up to Labor and Delivery at another part of the hospital. They decided to go ahead and test my 24 hour collection and take more blood. After i got back the results for the urine.. (normal is 100=300... mine was 1740.) So they decided to keep me here! I also got a shot in my butt to help the girls lungs mature just in case my blood pressure or protein count in the pee got higher they would be good to take the girls out. Other than that, im just gonna be staying in the hospital untill the girls come in 3 weeks most likely. It's been pretty boring lately, just been watching tv and laying in bed. Eric brought me all the goodies i asked for from home so i feel comfy here and he even brought me some pictures to put on the wall. sWeeeeta boy! :) I'm loosing all the swelling in my feet and hands so far. Its weird how skinny my fingers look to me now that swelling went down.

Day 2::::   So, day one out of the way... day two started at 4 am when the nurse woke me up to take my statistics and make me pee in a cup and also start another 24 hour urine collection. Fun  Fun, i went to bed at about 130 am and woke up at 4.. i actually slept really good! And i even went to bed again after the nurse left. A few hours later i got my breakfast brought up from the cafeteria ( oatmeal, pancakes, sausage, juice) it wasn't too bad. Ate all that, and just been watching tv. the nurse came in about 10 am and put all the monitors back on me to track the babies heart rates and also how many contractions i have. Each time they put the monitors on it takes a real long time to get both babies heartrates to show up on the machines so, the nurse was in here for a while trying to get them on the radar and i watched some more tv. Eric showed up with some more goodies for me and we watched some tv together too. Hes takin a nap now cuz he didnt sleep good last night poor boy :( . As of now, im watching Maury , hes takin a nap.. and i'm waiting to get my other butt shot for the girls lungs to mature and after that im supposed to go get another sonogram to see what the girls are doing.

Signing off stats: Blood pressure is back to normal, no headaches today, I do have a toothache though!!

Girls heart rates are doing fine, swelling is down, and we'll have to wait untill tomorrow when im done with the 24 hour urine test to be done to see what the proteins are now and i guess they will decide if the girls need to come out sooner or later. Ill keep u posted!!!
