What a crazy last few days. I got the results back from the fetal fibronectin test. This test will let the doctor know if you are in risk of going into delivery in 48 hours. My test came back negative. I am becoming more comfortable with the thought that I must have just been dehydrated last week.
For Easter Chris and I went to Palm Springs on Saturday after gun club. It was really nice to see the Tucker side of the family. We unfortunately had to leave that night so that Chris could get back and serve lunch at the gun club the next morning. On Sunday we went to my aunts house and had delicious chicken devan. And then we went to Chris aunts on his moms side for a second dinner and dessert. I was so full after that I didn't not even feel well the next Monday.
On Monday we had another doctors appointment. I was told to just keep my activity low until we get farther along in the pregnancy. By Tuesday I started to feel bad again. I ended up leaving work early and not being able to get out of bed the next day. I called the doctor and went back in to be monitored. This time I was not having contractions. The doctor said he thinks that the cramping is from muscle strain. I went home and applied heat and relaxed.

It is not easy to lay low. We have so much going on all the time. This would have been the second week in a row that Chris and I would have been gone every day. We had parenting class on Monday, soft ball on Tuesday, My step-dad's birthday on Wednesday and a benefit for my cousin on Thursday. Not to mention that we wanted to have a date night on Friday, My sister is skydiving in Lompoc on Saturday and we have a 1st birthday also on Saturday. I have decided to be selfless for Layla is going to mean being selfish and not attending everything I would like to. It has not been easy, not being there for my sisters and family, but I have decided that Layla is too important to risk. We need to make it a little further into the pregnancy to be sure that she will be able to survive on her own and have a long happy life.
