Back at Hospital Sunday Night

Last night, we headed back to the hospital. I was given a list of things that if they happened, I was supposed to call the doctor again. The things that worried me were the lack of fetal movement, the fact that contractions were less than 5 minutes apart and very intense around 3:30 that afternoon, but by 5, they were much further apart and not as intense, and also the diarrhea came back...

So, Dr. Gomez sent me back up there around 10:30pm to be monitored for an hour. Everything was fine, and we were home and in bed before midnight. Baby's heartbeat was much slower, into the 120's instead of the normal 140-150's, but they said it was OK.

I was instructed to move my Wednesday appt with Dr. Downey to today, so I'm waiting for the office to open. We'll see!
