Home for good, or until the babies show up.

I was released from the hospital on the 19th of September, just two days shy of the anniversary of my admittance.  Since returning home I have had really awful round ligament pain.  It's so terrible that I can barely walk and turning onto my left or right in bed is severely painful.  The only thing that seems to help is being on my feet as little as possible. 

Friday night my wonderful sister and brother in law came over and made us some tasty dinner and pie.  Saturday night Larry made us a delicious dinner of cornish game hens and par baked cheddar bread, and Sunday my brother Dylan made gyros for dinner.  

Larry is a really great and very strict care taker; only letting me get up to use the bathroom or to move to the living room to lay on the couch while guests are over.  He does pretty much everything for me including getting out clothes for me to wear when guests come over or when we have a Dr. appointment.  Tomorrow will be the first day I'll be on my own since Larry has to work; thankfully Joni will be dropping by to visit for a little bit.  Larry set up a mini kitchen right next to the bed so I'll be able to feed myself whenever he's out.

Larry and I visited Dr. Winkler this morning for an ultrasound and check up and everything looks great.  The babies are beginning to practice breathing by inhaling and expelling amniotic fluid and they continue to remain head down.  The girls have hair on their heads and they're on track for weight gain.  Dr. Winkler says the severe round ligament pain is perfectly normal and there's not much that can be done for it besides keeping the weight of the babies off of it.  I have about an 18 day supply of anti-contraction meds which will last until I'm 34 weeks along.  I would just as well like to stop at that point but Larry (in conjunction with my mom and Dr. Coleman) intends on getting a refill and having me take them through 36 weeks.
