The OB appointment went well yesterday. I am measuring where I should. The doctor said what happened last Monday was Threatened Preterm Labor. I have a doctor's release from work for the remainder of the school year. She told me 'no sex' because that would probably put me into contractions, but I can start some light activities if I want--to just be careful and monitor myself and make sure I don't overdo it. So based on my activity level this past weekend, I think I can sustain a couple hours a day of actually getting out of the house and seeing the real world. I won't be running a race anytime soon but I think I can manage a calm play date or visit with friends. I have noticed that after an hour or two of light activity, I am certainly ready to sit again because the braxton hicks start to kick in. So far, I've been able to get those under control just by resting. (Yes, mom, I promise I am being careful!)
