Sorry

I'm sorry it has been so long since I've updated. I've been trying to keep our family blog updated, but I guess I also need a place to share my own feelings, that everyone IRL won't read. 

DH and I just came home from a long weekend. We had a blast at the beach. On the way home, about an hr into the trip I started having contractions. They were pretty much 8 min apart. I know that they always say to lay down and drink fluids. I reclined my chair and drank a bunch of water, they continued. I continued to time the contractions and pray that they would slow down or stop. At this time they had been 8 min apart and have lasted for almost 2 hrs. 

I called the dr, explained what was going on and said we were about 30min from home. They asked me to come strait to the office and not to go home first. We went strait there and my cervix didn't show that it was doing anything. My dr sent me home told me to stay on the couch and not to do much. Avoid stairs and house work. If I wasn't already on summer break, she would have taken me off of work. I'm not quite on bedrest, but I'm to rest for the next week and get checked out next Monday. If they get harder I'm to call in to the dr and let them know. 

I'll try to update more often. :)
