Marvels of Medicine

I have felt much better since yesterday.  Things have calmed down quite a bit, and I no longer feel that Gwen's birth is imminent.  The doctor increased my dose of my tocolytic on Monday (he had previously decreased it because it caused heart palpitations) and since the increased medication kicked in I have had decreased symptoms, and thankfully no palpitations.  This year for Thanksgiving, I am thankful that I am still pregnant, and despite progressing some, Gwen still seems to be waiting a bit longer to be born.

Another thing that I am thankful for is that Simba is coming home today!!!  He has been at grandma and grandpa's being spoiled for the past 2 1/2 weeks, and I am so excited that I get to see him tonight.  We may have to break a couple of habits that he learned on his vacation.  He will not get daily peanut butter from me like he does from grandma Lou and I will not hand feed him his dog food like grandpa Big Guy.  But he will be spoiled in other ways.  I have missed him so much that I will probably make him sit on my lap during the whole holiday weekend to get forced belly rubs. :-)
