Bucket List and doctor update

I'll start with what everybody is waiting to know...I went to the doctor again today (doctor Swindle was out of town so I saw one of the docs from when I was in the hospital, but same practice). She still says no change thank goodness! Still having to stay on bedrest and keep doing what I'm doing...or should I say NOT doing. I did ask her about when I get to stop taking the procardia (oral meds to keep contractions away). She said some docs say 36 weeks and some say 37. So I'll talk to Doctor Swindle about that on Tuesday at my next appt. Anyway, regardless we are pleased with the report today. And I was a big girl..got to drive to the doctor and home all by myself :) Seriously it was nice. This whole "being helpless" feeling is no fun, so a little independence goes a long way.

I may be jumping the gun a tad...but if things continue to go well..sounds like I will get some privileges. So I have compiled a "bucket list" of some things I would love to somehow squeeze in before baby P comes...ONLY if I get cleared to do them...I can hear my own mother right now and a few others who play a similar role in my life, starting to breath hard and start composing their lecture to me. Don't worry ladies...this is my child we are talking about..I'm not going to do anything against doctor's orders or that would jeopardize my child's health. With that said...

Bucket List (before baby P):

• pedicure
• movie
• go out to eat with Justin (last meal...haha)
• oil change in my car

So I think all of those require minimal walking and could definitely be doable if I get the "all clear" from doctor Swindle. And just for the record...if I don't get to do them..it's not the end of the world. I just think it's good to set goals for yourself.

Thanks again for all the sweet comments about the blog. I truly am enjoying it. Yall don't feel too sorry for me. It's a beautiful day...I'm plopped out on my driveway on a lawn chair (with my fold out table, laptop,music, cooler of drinks, good book and sunscreen), enjoying the beautiful outdoors. It's a nice change a scenery. And don't worry I'm tucked in between our garage and my neighbors so I don't scare anybody in all my pregnancy bliss..hahaha.
