It's Working!

So, I've officially been off of work for two weeks now.  Although it's a little bittersweet, it is definitely doing the trick.

Since being off of work, I really haven't had any contractions.  I have the occasional Braxton Hicks contractions (which is normal), but nothing like the consistent and low contractions I was having (which isn't normal).  Plus, my house is clean.  It may take me all day to clean a bathroom or to vacuum, but it's at least done.

Today I had my two week appointment at the doctor's office.  It was rather routine.  I'm measuring perfect and Kenton's heart beat was strong.  Here is what the next two weeks look like in regards to Kenton:

• Tuesday, January 24th: Weekly 17 P injection, blood pressure check, listen to Kenton's heartbeat
• Friday, January 27th:  We are meeting with a pediatric nephrologist (kidney doctor).  We will be reviewing all of the test results thus far on Kenton and a possible plan of action if he does test positive for the Congenital Finnish Nephrosis when he is born.  It is important that he receives immediate care if this is, in fact, his diagnosis.  I am, of course, praying we won't need her services, but better safe than sorry.
• Tuesday, January 30th: Weekly 17 P injection, blood pressure check, listen to Kenton's heartbeat 
• Wednesday, February 1st: Ultrasound and Consult with new doctor.  This is the 2nd opinion my OB suggested we have from the high-risk OB.  The doctor will be doing a growth ultrasound on Kenton, as well as reviewing all of the genetic tests we had done.  We are hoping this doctor may have some additional insight as to the abnormal protein levels and inconclusive genetic testing.  If not, we at least have met with the doctor that might be treating me in the hospital.
• Thursday, February 2nd: Regular OB appointment with Dr. Branaman.  This will be a routine 2 week appointment.  We will hopefully have some new information from the appointment the previous day to discuss as well.

Needless to say, Kenton is definitely making sure that he gets some attention, even if he is the third child.  :)   Thank you everyone for your continued thoughts and prayers.  They are truly helping ... I KNOW IT!
