Glad to be home!

We arrived at the hospital a little after 6:00am. The procedure started at 8:00 and it was finished by 8:30. They said everything went well. I appreciate everyone's prayers regarding the spinal block-it was much better than I thought it would be. It wasn't bad at all. The procedure was strange because I could feel them touching me and could wiggle my toes etc. but it didn't hurt. I was taken to recovery and monitored for contractions. Although I didn't feel them, my body was contracting. The first medication they gave me didn't work, and they decided to keep me over night and gave me two additional medications. They monitored me and sent me home this afternoon with two antibiotics and more medication for contractions that I will take till tomorrow/ I am so glad to be home! Brent was great and stayed by my side the whole time!

I go back to my regular OB this coming week and back to the specialist the following week. We appreciate everyone's prayers and warm wishes. Although the doctor has not officially put me on bed rest. I plan to be staying off my feet as much as possible!
