35W Doctor's Appt

I had my 35 week appointment this morning. Frankie is doing great. Unfortunately, the doctor would not allow any increase in activity for me. I have to stay on bedrest for now because my cervix has started to shorten again. While I have reached a point where if labor starts, the doctors will no longer stop it, they prefer I make it a little bit longer. The doc estimated Frankie needs another week to week & a half to measure where the doctor would like. Turns out there is a high correlation with the size of the head and the maturity of the lungs. Frankie's head measurement is 3 mm away from his lungs being fully matured. I have started to have real contractions but they are not regular so no need to be alarmed yet. Hopefully they will hold off until at least next week!

Last week, I had visitors for lunch twice! It was so nice to see friends and co-workers and have tasty food! The week seemed to go by so much faster! I finished the main part of my cross stitch. All I have left is Frankie's name and birth information. 

This week, I am hoping to shop for a ceiling fan and curtains/blinds for the nursery. I have had trouble making any decisions online but I would like to get the nursery done so I may not have a choice!
