Would I trade any of it for the world? Never.
Today marks 35 weeks and 2/7ths pregnant. (Believe me when you are on bedrest, EVERY single day counts) Hence the 2/7ths part :) We had an apt yesterday in Orange City and I've never been more excited to be able to leave the house. The fresh air and sunshine were delicious. I soaked it all in. Everything looked good at the apt, bedrest and medication are working. Dr is hoping to keep him in there at least another 7-10 days.
Our little boy is the master of hiccups. He has them at least daily but typically 2-3 times a day sometimes for 10 minutes at a time. We even got to hear them a few times on the monitor when we were in the hospital. Since I have hours to just lay around lately I caught him having the hiccups and being active on video. I know I am going to miss my days of feeling him hiccup and move all around once he is born so I'm cherishing them now. The video is like 2 minutes long, you can see the jolts of hiccups the entire video and there are some movements and kicks in there as well. (There's a pretty good "kick" around minute 1:27 of video on the right side of my belly)Enjoy!
We appreciate all the support and love we have been shown and covet your prayers that things will continue to go smoothly.
