just a quick update

Yesterday was another NST and Ultrasound. My amniotic fluid is up again, but just slightly. Sarah had a deceleration in her heart rate a few times, enough to monitor me for longer. And I had a few contractions.
I was sent up to the Labor and Delivery floor where they hooked me up to more monitors for 4 HOURS...BORING! Nothing came of it and I was sent home. However, I got to see my contractions, which are totally wimpy, and how spaced out they are. But at least I know that they really are contractions and not just braxton-hicks. I will have another NST on Tuesday and then a doctor appointment, NST and Ultrasound next Friday...if I make it to next Friday.
I never have just a boring pregnancy, there is always something to deal with.

You and Matt should have a date night one more time before Sarah is here.
Get some rest.
