Whatta day....

I started my day off with my normal NST monitoring at 9:30am. That usual 20 minute test turned into all dang day! Her heart rate would decelerate at least once an hour. So what does being on the monitor all day mean? It means Bridget can't take a shower! This is the girl that will NOT step foot out of the house with no makeup. Nor will I allow anybody to come over until I've showered and put my face on. Heck I wouldn't even come out of my bedroom in the morning when my own sister stayed at my house. Not allowing me to take a shower is TORTURE!

We figured out that everytime Charlotte's heart went down was when I had a contraction. This is because of a lack of fluid, but the heart goes right back up. I timed things perfectly when my fav nurse came in and I took an "illegal" shower inbetween contractions woot woot. So now it's 1:30AM and my contractions continue to get closer. They are now 8 minutes apart. The morphine helped last Thursday, but its not doin much now. I think we may be delivering VERY soon. And although we still have a long road, the good news is it's not a matter of if she'll make it, but when she'll come home :)
