I am annoyed. I am annoyed that I’ve been stuck at home this past week with false labor contractions. Last Friday I was in the hospital for what they think was early labor contractions. I was given two shots of tuberline to stop the contractions and put on modified bed rest over the weekend. I am only 40% effaced and barely dialeted and everyone is telling me to rest. Which I totally understand because I don’t have a ton of energy right now and I have a commute into S*F that is starting to take a toll on me but I am soooo bored!! Plus add in anxious and ready to pop this child out. I don’t know if I can make it another 5 weeks.
I love my co-workers to death and they have been so cool about me working from home, but if I have to explain how I am feeling one more time or whether or not I am in pain, I am going to explode. I feel like I have to justify my decision in staying off my feet and working from home. I am sure it is not meant that way but it sure feels like it.
I see my midwife on Tuesday of next week so it will be interesting to see if anything has changed from this week.
This limbo land feels like the first trimester when all you wanted to do was get to 13 weeks so you knew everyhing was okay.
