My 3 Hour Test And My "Further Instructions"

I took my 3 hour test yesterday and although I barely passed, that's still passing, so yay! They said by the 3rd draw, my blood sugar was too low, meaning that I start showing hypo-glycemia if I don't eat for 2-3 hours so I need to make sure I'm eating often. That's the best advice I've gotten from a doc recently - now if I'm craving something and Rob doesn't want to go get it, I can tell him "doc's orders, I have to eat!" ;)

As for the "further instructions" on my contractions: I went to the doc last Thursday and they did some testing and found out that I was beginning to efface, although I think it's very slight at this point. So, partial bedrest (I say "partial" because he didn't tell me I couldn't get up, he just said to go home, lay down, and get up as little as possible for the next few weeks) and medicine every 4 hours to keep the contractions at bay. Since this is what happened with Hannah and I still ended up being induced with her, he did agree - after my slight pushing - that we would re-evaluate the bedrest and medicine at each appointment but said he didn't want to mess with this type of stuff at 28-29 weeks. I agree and am glad he is looking out for baby, I just would like to avoid what happened last time where I ended up just stalling out.

So, there is my good news. No diabetes and we've got a plan to keep baby where he/she is for at least another 7-8 weeks but hopefully allow enough time for him/her to come on her own without an induction.
