So these are the results from my Non-Stress Test today at my doctors appointment. The top set of wavy lines are the babies heartbeats. Nice and steady with no big dips. The bottom line measures my contractions. As you can see my contractions are about 8 minutes apart (the wave is the contraction). The doc wanted me to go get admitted to the hospital but I talked her out of it. My cervix is still way up there and undilated. If I went to the hospital, they would admit me ($$$$) put a monitor on me, tell me that my contractions were 8 minutes apart, examine me and then tell me to go home and call if the contractions got closer together or more intense. I live 5 minutes from the hospital so I'd rather just skip all that hoopla. So I'm going to keep my feet up tonight, drink lots of water and keep my stopwatch going. I really am a difficult patient...sorry docs.

Yeah, see, this just isn't going to work for me. I'm gonna need you to keep your feet up for approximately 12 more days. (Ha - yayyy, good luck, congrats, etc etc etc...I miss you guys!!) You better tell someone to keep me updated once you start being the angry in-labor one. :) LOVE YOU ALL!!
I wish I could be there... I love you guys!
