Finally Among The Living

What a week we have had! It all started Tuesday night when Jackson began vomitting. Then Wednesday I started in....four hours later my mom followed! For those of you who have never experienced it, vomitting when you are 35 weeks pregnant is NOT FUN!!! I was up the whole night having contractions every 3 minutes due to dehydration. I also had the pleasure of having a low grade fever that amplified every ache in my body. Finally by Saturday mom and I felt much better and decided to venture out to do some errands. Unfortunately Jackson picked this outing to begin vomitting again. Nothing like a sick child in the middle of the Costco food court. So needless to say we have been laying low for the past week! I think we are finally in the clear, but I thought that on Saturday too...lets see if we make it through the week.


I reached a big mile stone today...This is officially the longest I have been pregnant. Jackson was born at 36 wks & 5 days at 4:43am. So now at 12:25 I am setting a personal record! I continue to have contractions 1 or 2 per hour. She is riding VERY LOW...so low at any point I think if I squat down she will just fall out. Of course I am sure this is an exageration but that is how it feels. Dan is supposed to be here by Sunday night so I hoping I can hold her off until then. I am taking it easy and not being very active. In fact many days Jackson and I do not get out of our PJ.


Speaking of PJs here is a cute picture of Jackson...he looks just like Dan in this picture. He is growing up so fast!
