Home At Last!!!

Home at last!! I was discharged at 3 p.m. today and was home and in my own bed by 3:30 p.m. Boy, does it feel good to be home!! I teared up when I saw the leaves changing colors outside and even falling off the trees and I cried even more when we drove up to our house. George and his mom made sure I got home safe. Luukas was sooooo excited when his Nana picked him up at school today bc he knew that meant I would be here when he got home. He ran into the house and gave me a HUGE hug and kiss!!! It was priceless!! As for the house...it's still standing and pretty well for 2 bachelor's who've been living here the last 5 weeks!! Yes, there were toys everywhere and baby stuff galore that needs to be organized, Luukas' room is a pigsty from toys and my room looked like I haven't lived here in years. Oh well! The important thing is our family survived the last 5 weeks (with lots of support from all of you)! Soooo, I'm home for now, on stict bedrest (with bathroom privilages and an occasional opportunity to sit at the table) until 32 weeks. I'll be seeing the doctor weekly (on Tuesdays) for non-stress tests (NST's) and having ultrasounds every other Tuesday. Once I get a little further along, I'll be having NST's twice a week. For now, I'm taking Terbutiline tablets 4 times a day and praying and hoping to make it to 32 and even 34 weeks!!! Thanks again for your prayers and support!!
