the night before we were supposed to leave to drive to kentucky to visit my family for christmas, we got a call from C saying that she thought she was going into labor and was on her way to the hospital.\u00a0 She’s only 27 weeks along, so there was panic involved all the way around.\u00a0 We sat around for about an hour biting our fingernails and chomping at the bit and wondering if we were going to need to buy plane tickets.\u00a0 Then, not wanting to be a pest, but wanting her to know that we were still there for her, I sent her a text message and she wrote back to say that the baby was fine and they weren’t sure why she was experiencing those symptoms, but they gave her some medicine and were keeping her overnight for observation.\u00a0 She called a little later to reassure us again that everything was okay and i called her again from kentucky the next day and she was home already.\u00a0 she’s supposed to just take it easy (maybe bedrest?\u00a0 it wasn’t really clear to me.) for awhile and keep an eye out for more symptoms.<\/p>\n
i think i’d feel better if i had a hospital bag all packed and ready to go.\u00a0 eep!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
