23 Weeks

I had an appointment at 10:15 yesterday morning out at St. Vincent Hospital with Dr. Jacobson. When they called my name, it was the same nurse that I had the very first time I went to St. Vincent to check my cervix. This nurse asked if she could use my pictures to show that she knew how to measure a cervix. Well, when I was at Sunnyside before I went to St. Vincent the first time and my doctor called me to tell me to go there, she told me that my cervix measured to be 2.3 and when I got to St. Vincent that very same day, this nurse measured my cervix to be 1.8. So, needless to say, this nurse measured my cervix again to be 1.8-1.9. I don't think this nurse hows to measure the cervix because all the other nurses always measure it to be 2.3 and 2.4.
Anyway, the doctor came in and told me that I basically need to be on complete bed rest until I get to at least 28 weeks because this is the most critical part. We don't want her to come out now because she could have very major complications. The nurse came in while I was talking to the doctor and took my blood pressure: 126/85, I think. Pretty good compared to my sisters'. She also did the test thing with my urine and found out that I could have a bladder infection, so the doctor gave me a prescription to take for a couple of days. I am supposed to call the nurse on Monday to talk about the 2nd urine test I did while I was still there.
I got all the paperwork that I need to send in about me being admitted when I go into labor. I will be going to St. Vincent when I go into labor. I wish that I wasn't though cause it is so stinkin far away.
Last night, while I was laying down watching a movie, I felt her kick me and the stuff that I have been reading said that I might be able to see my stomach do little waves from the baby moving. Well, I looked down at my stomach and that is exactly what I saw. It was the coolest thing ever to be able to see that. I kept seeing my stomach go up and down.
