29 weeks 4 days
The news for today is that my OB called me and told me she'd like me to start working 20 hours a week for the next couple weeks, then I'll be off work completely until I decide to go back. So working part-time starts this coming Monday.
The OB did give me more reassurance about the positive FFN - though it was positive, it doesn't mean that labor will occur in the next couple weeks. I can't imagine having a baby at 31 weeks or less. I hope that the positive isn't that big of a deal and that these babies of ours stay inside me for another 7 weeks or so. I have an ultrasound on Wednesday afternoon to check on the growth of the babies and to make sure the cervix hasn't thinned out anymore. One thing I forgot to mention before is that my cervix was opening a bit from the inside, but my OB said that this doesn't mean much.
Well, per my OB's advice, I'm going to take it very easy and rest as much as I can so I can make it to 36 weeks. Have a great weekend everyone!

36!!! 36!!! Stay put little ones. I'm glad to hear that the OB has put you on a lighter work schedule. That should definitely help them stay inside a little longer:)

Oh, Heather! First of all, I'm so glad you get to start going to part time.
I know what you mean - we've come so far but to give birth now would just be crazy. I am praying for those little babies to stay tucked in and fatten up!!
