    Update
    I just got home from the dr appointment. I was schedualed to see a nurse practitioner, but they had me see my dr who was in the office anyway. He said everything is normal... lol... I'm so relieved. The reason he gave for the discharge was because of double the hormones. The contractions are normal because my body is thinking that I'm closer than I truly am. I'm measuring 35weeks today. I asked about being further along and he said not by the u/s measurements. I am dialated about one cm, nothing to worry about. I have six weeks to go as far as them trying to stop labor if I happen to go into it. That just happens to be just about Drew's birthday... lol... I'm much more relaxed now that I got to see my dr... isn't it funny how that works... I'm at the point where I go in for weekly appointments now... I'm really starting to get excited now. I'm sleeping a lot so I won't be posting too much unless it's at three in the morning when they are moving sooo much I can't sleep. I have an u/s next week so that should tell me a whole lot more as far as how they are positioned and if a vag birth is possible. Heart rates are good and I'm able to breath again cause they have dropped. I have to pee all the time again though, that really didn't go away. I'm timing contractions now to make sure they aren't getting regular and are just the b/h ones. He was glad to hear I came in last week and happy to see me today even without an appointment. My blood pressure is up to 136/70... it's still good. I was running at 110/60. No protein in my urine as of yet. My swelling is still pretty bad though, no matter how much water I drink. He told me to take it easy again. I told him my comp is my best friend at the moment and that it's practically my only link to the outside world and he laughed... I love my dr. He is so great. I would recommend him to anyone in this area!. Anyway, I hope this lets all of you relax cause I know you were worried. I'm going to go take a nap since one of my little guys decided to sleep on my kidney last night so I didn't sleep well at all... that hurt... six weeks and counting... *sigh* I kind of hope it goes by fast, but not too fast. I will keep you all posted in any way I can. Thank you all soooo much for being a life line to other adults... Otherwise I'd be talking a lot more to my cats... I will check back again very soon...

    Just wait I'll be worrying over something new next week... lol. I don't think that's just a mom thing anymore though. I know lots of dads that worry more than moms do. Probably cause mom has some idea of what's going on and dad seems more of a bystander at the point I'm at.

    It was good talking to you too. You really seem in better spirits than you did last week. Hopefully we can get together next Wednesday. I'll let you know.

    BTW, don't clean too much and DON'T pick up the new air conditioner.

    Thanks guys. I have an appointment this wed. and an u/s along with it. I can't wait. I will let you all know how it's going with a new thread. The dr said that he'll let me deliver in six weeks... five now. I can't wait!! I'm so ready... lol... They aren't though and I know they need to cook a bit longer.

    Jnet,
    I have only gained 20lbs or so (with twins) and my dr isn't worried... don't stress too much about it. I was starting to worry about it but doc said not to that it was pretty normal. When is your u/s?

    Aqua,
    Glad to see you back. Hope things are going well with you too. I'm just really relieved that things are going OK. Thank you for your concern.

    HI myth, I went to see my doctor today and he said I lost 2 more pounds I need to gain 15 pounds in four weeks which I think will be hard for me, because I never gain a lot when I'm pregnant. My first ultrasound eill be on tomorrow at 1:00p.m. I'm so excited about that. I'll keep you posted Jnet29 : )
