Day Four: Thursday August 29

25 weeks 4 days

I was hoping to update earlier but I'm back on drugs so I'm not 100% myself.

I went off the magnesium yesterday around 2:30 pm. I successfully kept contractions at bay until about 4 am this morning. The medical team decided to put me back on magnesium. While it was a bummer to hear, Andrew and I were confident that my body would stop contractions once I was back on the mag drip.

I'm hooked back up to fluids, magnesium, pulse tracker, belly monitor and blood pressure cuff. I'm still having a reaction (flushed face) but my contractions have really slowed down!

My mom was here today. Andrew was able to go home to shower and check on Nugget(hamster). The dogs are hanging out with Dad - living the high life. While mom made a dirty girl skirt I concentrated on keeping Munchkin in place.

We've had some great feedback from the medical team. Everyday Munchkin stays inside is a victory.

Thanks for all the messages of support!
