For those of you who saw me bent in pain at any point yesterday, have no fear!! After a day of stabbing belly pain and constant ache in one area beside my belly button, I thought (well, I was greatly advised) to call the health nurse. Of course she said to go in right away. Then I called the Dr.'s office, and asked for a second opinion. I was pretty sure it wasn't labor (you'd think I'd know after doing it three times), but they said to come in anyway.
And... all is well. 'Member I said that baby had changed positions? Well, I guess the new one is extremely taxing on one set of belly muscles. The place baby has chosen to rest is not at all restful to me. As in, if you touch that part of my tummy, I am off the table in reflex action. Crazy!! Anyway, they said to come back today if it's the same and they'll do an ultrasound and see if there's anything they can do about it. I think it's a bit better, though, so we'll see. They put me on the monitor and baby is doing very well, moving a ton- which at this point, just hurts!! Ah well, I am glad to keep the small one growing a bit longer.
I did have a dream last night that I was in the hospital by myself, no docs, no nurses, no Ryan. Just me and the three kids. I had the baby, cleaned it up myself, and IT WAS A BOY!!! He was soooo cute, looked just like Gabe when he was tiny!! So.... who knows?
Anyway, God Bless, all, Char

Very happy everything turned out all right and yes you had me worrying some, didn't figure it was labor but you sure were sounding like it on the phone, I love you lots and am praying that the pain goes away or either the baby moves into a comfturable possition for both of you.

UGH! This last one is turning out to be a huge adventure in patience and endurance! I feel bad but I'm still so so excited to see who this is! It would be so cool if it was another little boy, gabe would be ecstatic, and you can't beat Gabe in cuteness!
