The Miller's Place

Well this morning was spent at the hospital as Michelle woke up with some bleeding.  Doc said that more than likely came from the cervix opening up more.  She is dilated to 1.5cm currently and the baby is doing well.  Contractions are every ten minutes and Michelle seems to think they will only quicken.  That being said I think Michelle thinks Morgan is going to make an early appearance, whereas I think Michelle is just being her usual hypochondriac self.  Only time will tell.  Will keep everyone updated as we progress.

It’s vacation time for me.  I took next week off just for prep sake 🙂  And the following week I took off for paternity leave.  So finally a little R & R for me, LOL yeah right.  Besides the house having to get put together for Michelle’s and not to mention my mom’s arrival, we also have a little bundle coming home soon enough 🙂  But on top of that I had so much work to do at the office I had to bring some of it home with me to try and finish while I am off.  That’s it for me for now, I am pooped.  Long night of tossing and turning and snoring and no I am not meaning me 🙂

Wow, I’ll be honest. I’m a tad bit nervous and that is the understatement of the decade, but don’t tell Michelle that. While Matthew and Morgan could not have been more different, in a few ways they are very similar. Main thing, timing. What I mean by that is both deliveries have crept up. You may not think that with Morgan since she already is at full term but it’s true. With Matthew we went to the hospital and the doc said, well let’s get this baby out. Total surprise, I knew Michelle was having issues but never in my wildest dream 6 weeks earlier would I think the doc would say lets get that baby out of there. Totally blind sided. Well with Morgan, because of the issues with Matthew, Michelle and I went into this waiting for the other shoe to drop in a way. Well funny thing is, it never has dropped. Well the issues were going to be my wake up call, and I never have had that wake up call. There has been not one issue, thank God. So today as we are 18 days away, just a tad over two weeks, did you hear me, two weeks???, as I said am a tad bit nervous.

The big news in this post is late last week Michelle scheduled the induction for Friday May 23rd. So if Morgan doesn’t show up by then she will 🙂 Did I mention that is just over two weeks away. Anyway everyone is doing very well. Michelle is becoming very much immobile. Hurts to do most everything. But all in all, everyone is well.

Last but not least, another thing to make me nervous is that we have scheduled a weekend getaway to visiting my family at the beach this weekend. I have had my worries as it is about 2.5 hours away from the hospital but Michelle wants to go, so Friday we are off to spend some quiet peaceful time at Bethany Beach.

We’ll keep you updated as time ticks on by 🙂
