It is so good to be home again. So far this week, I have been resting and getting back into work again. I'm feeling good, but definitely taking it easy! My day consists of waking up around 7:30am, breakfast in bed :), then doing some work while still in bed. My mom has been coming over most afternoons to help me with lunch. I eat lunch, then I rest and continue some work on my laptop. Once Josh gets home from work, I usually move out into the Living Room, eat dinner on my recliner, then finish off my day watching some TV. It seems to be working out pretty well. This may come as a surprise to some, but I don't get bored doing this. I have plenty of things to keep me busy. I do miss getting dressed up in normal clothes, putting makeup on, and going out to do things, but all that can wait. I know I will get those parts of my life back one day. My main focus is to get through the month of February without any complications, at a bare minimum! That's our goal. Once February comes and goes, the babies will be much better off, and I can receive steroids to help them develop their lungs.
Mom and Dad are taking me to my doctor's appointment tomorrow. Josh will also be meeting us at the doctor's office too. I will be seeing my High Risk docs, and Dr. Rao, and I'll be getting more ultrasounds. Big day! I look forward to getting a check up and seeing the babies.
To all our wonderful supporters out there that pray for our family everyday, we sincerely THANK YOU! Your prayers are what has gotten us this far and what gives us the strength to go on.
