Well, the doctor decided to take me off my medicine when I get to 34 weeks (probably mid next week). The main medicine I'm on is not something they typically keep people on for a long time. No one is sure what will happen when I'm off of it, I guess we'll see! The medicine is typically used for high blood pressure, but for some reason it works for this too. I've learned the real meaning of low blood pressure in the last two weeks. (My record is 86/46) Luckily, I'm feeling much better now than I was.
I can attest that Micah is getting bigger, my belly is proof! He should be around 4 1/2 pounds by now. He's 33 1/2 weeks. It depends on who you talk to, but they want me to get between 34-36 weeks- which would be about 20" long and 5-6 lbs.
Being in the hospital has officially got annoying. I'm surprised it took this long, really. I miss the outside and work and people... Oh well... like one nurse said, "every day he's in you, is one less day he will be in the NICU."

Enjoy the down time now sweetie. After Micah finally makes his entrance, you'll probably have very little of it. Let's hope that he decides to stay put for at least another week.
