31 Weeks 2 days

Oh yessss today I am 31 weeks 2 days pregnant with my little prince charming Elijah, had an appointment on Friday, March 31st and my little man is definitely heads down, he's been that way since 28 weeks, he wants out, but he is not ready, just praying that he stays put. Doctor's appointment went great, I gained 21 lbs so far not too bad might I say, Elijah is measuring on target, strong heart rate and a very active little boy, he makes me sooo proud. On Saturday I had a scary moment I started bleeding not heavy enough to soak a pad, but definitely got me panicky. Called my OB and was advised to stay in bed with feet elevated and to drink lots of fluids, started cramping really bad 2 hours later and was scared of preterm later, went to the ER because the cramping was all day, thank God my cervix is closed tight and pretty high and that both cramping and bleeding have stop, I am now on modified bed rest, woot woot baby shower in 13 days and I can't wait. God bless all of you ladies :)

Thinking of you and hope it was a one time thing. It is amazing to know that even if he came early, he would be a survivor now. Sending love xo

Oh wow...how scary! Take it easy...I am sure you are in bed rest now right? Do you think it was the previa that caused the bleeding? I will say a prayer that you little one stays in there at least 6 more weeks!! XOXO!

Keep up the fluids and take it easy. It sounds like a certain little one is ready to make an early entrance. Just let him know that he needs to cook for a few more weeks.

Many hugs!!!
