We have a plan...

Even though Pierce is not here yet, we have a reason to celebrate.  We have made it to 38 weeks.  We are definitely in a safe zone.  Thank you God!  I saw my doctor this week, and she is surprised yet excited that we have been able to go this long.  I can definitely say that bed rest works.  Even though it was tough during the past two weeks, I am happy that we are in a good place.  During the past two weeks, I lived day by day moment by moment thinking that labor was coming any second.  We made it through lots of contractions, back pains, etc.  :)

If Pierce doesn't make his grand entrance in the next week, then we are able to induce next Thursday, June 9 which is 39 weeks.  Stay tuned, we'll let you know what happens.

This journey began at 25 weeks when I first went into labor.  I am so thankful that this pregnancy has progressed to such a safe place, and I cannot wait to meet our little man. 

Last week, I was told that I could go on one errand a day.  The doctor lifted all restrictions on Tuesday.  Even though I am not technically on bed rest any more, my energy level is quite limited.  I will rest as much as I can and enjoy the next week.  Before we know it, the time will come when it is time to head to the hospital.  I am ready, excited, and cannot wait! 

Stay tuned!  We'll let you know when Pierce is here.  I have my cameras ready, and there will be lots of pictures to share with each of you!
