Update on Me and Ivy

WHEW! What a weekend! Thursday I woke up at 7 having pains that kinda felt like contractions but I really didn't think they were. They were really sharp and coming every 2 to 5 minutes. I finally got through to my doctor's nurse and she got me in to see the nurse practitioner at 1:30. She checked me and said my cervix was good and thick and closed. So I wasn't in preterm labor. That was great news so I really didn't think about how much pain I was in until we got back home. So I called and my doctor had me admitted in to OB and they put the monitor on and nothing was registering as contractions, which I knew it wouldn't. They couldn't really figure out what was going on. They said it could be round ligament pains and gave me some pain medicine and sent me home. Friday was a little better. I was still having the pains but they weren't regular or as intense, and Saturday I hardly had any at all. I feel really good today and we are going for my check up and another ultrasound tomorrow, so maybe my doctor can figure out what went on. As for Ivy, she was kicking all night on the monitor. The nurses were amazed at how active she was! Alan kept hearing her kick and roll around and was like WOW! Now he knows why she keeps me up all night! LOL!
