I'm home! My Dr. sent me home on "good behavior"... he said that if I promise to stay on STRICT bedrest I could go home... it helps that I live close too!
Here's the kicker... the second I got home, literally walked in the door and went straight to the bathroom... BOOM, I was bleeding! Chris just kind of laughed, and so did I... it took us almost 30 minutes to drive 5 miles in horrible Friday traffic! We did hit a few bumps in the road that didn't feel so good and then we have these horrible speed bumps in the alley driving to our garage... so we chalked it up to that. The bumps really didn't feel so great and I'm convinced that is what caused the bleeding. YES, the placenta is that sensitive, especially with a big baby Skinger lying on top of it.
Anyway... we decided to wait this one out instead of running back to the hospital. Thankfully it stopped after 12 hours or so (I'd consider this one a slow leak). I do notice however that if I do much of anything, it starts up again. Following Dr's orders is a lot easier now that I have experienced the consequences!
SO... I'm happy to have HGTV back (my fav channel) and be at home with Chris & Henry. Hopefully they're happy to have me here too... especially Chris. He not only has the house to take care of but a 3 year with tons of energy and a wife that is useless!
We're hoping I can stay home at least a week or more. If I can get through Thanksgiving that would be awesome (I turn 35 weeks the Wednesday before Thanksgiving). I am still going to have the amnio either the Monday before Thanksgiving or the Monday after. Regardless, if I can get to 34 or more weeks, this baby will do great!
