WOW... I can't believe it. I'm still in shock. The Dr. came in to my room around 3pm and checked my cervix... still 1-2 CM dialated (which is what I was when I checked in almost 2 weeks ago) and 50% effaced. Because I'm not feeling contractions, nor has there been a change in my cervix (thanks to many prayers) he gave the go ahead to discharge me! The nurses were shocked, because he is known as the most conservative Dr. and doesn't ever let ANYONE go... especially given the fact that I have twins!!! I cried immediately and my nurse just hugged me (did I mention how special she was/is?) I of coarse called Kingsley (and my mom) immediately.... Kingsley was in class and was there by 5:15. It gave me time to shower and say my good bye's to everyone! The nurse gave me a mini tour of the O.R. where I will deliver (a little scarier than the nice hotel delivery rooms). It's very sterile and white and COLD. We then went up to NICU to see where the babies would've been 2 weeks ago (or could still go if I deliver)... It was amazing to see how tiny the babies were. We saw one little guy who was born at 1.2 lbs. and is now 3.8! He was so tiny!!!
So the car ride was rough because my uterus hasn't had that much action in quite awhile. We celebrated with OUTBACK steakhouse and now I'm sitting on the couch I've dreamt of for days!!! It's hard seeing the kids toys, and shoes, etc... I miss hearing their sweet voices, but I know this is only temporary!!!
In an earlier post, I wrote if they wanted me on bedrest, they'd have to hospitalize me... LOL... that is exactly what I needed to SLOW down. I will follow Dr. instructions EXACTLY!!!!
Thank you for all your prayers, you have NO idea how much it has meant to me.
