Well, I though I'd update everybody on what is going on. Things have been crazy here the last couple of days. I had a Dr. appointment last week... and he could already feel the babys head. I said... Now way, what did it feel like. :) He said that he is a lot lower than where he should be at this point. I was told to keep off of my feet as much as I could. After I got off of work the next day I started to have cramping pretty bad... I did my usual things like... lay down, take a bath.. but they only seemed to get worse. I had never experienced contractions at this point, but I knew that what I was having HURT. I called my doctors office and they said that might be having contractions and that I should go into Labor and Delivery. I was scared to death at this point... Tanner was home within mintues and we went straight over. They hooked the baby and I up to some monitors so they could see what was going on. Our nurse said that the baby looked really good for 30 weeks. They monitored that after an hour of being there that I had already had 3 contractions. They did a few tests that all came back good. Then they gave me 3 different shots to stop the contractions, which worked. After a while of being there I would lay there and cry... not because of the pain... mainly because I was so scared. It is crazy what goes through your head at this point! I was still having cramps pretty bad, but they said that as long as I wasn't having contractions I could go home. I was a bit destrought considering I was supposed to leave for Pennsylvania on Saturday. I had been so excited to go back and visit my family, but not feeling up to it anymore. Trying to use my best judgement I decided to stay in Las Vegas incase anything would happen. Tanner was very excited about my decision... I had already had my bags packed, but felt I was making a good decision... Although- I really miss my family and wanted soo bad to see them. And I was really excited to have my baby shower back there and see everybody that I haven't seen in so long. Oh well, I cant think about it too much or it just makes me sad. It is not a big deal... I guess I will just keep eating my watermelon... it is the only thing I crave these days.. We always have it in the fridge. I have off all this week and have a dr. appointment next week so Ill let you guys know how it goes. Love, A

Andrea, this is Jenna Dunn (Platt)...my parents are good friends with Brad and Kathy and Kathy found my blog. I came to your wedding, but I know you met tons of people. Anyway, I'm sorry to hear about your little scare. Brad, Kathy, and Crew were at my sisters softball game last week when this started to happen. I would be scared to death too. But I'm glad they got the contractions to stop and you were able to go home. I hope the rest is helping you tons. Do you know what you are going to name him yet? Well, good luck and feel better.
That is so scary. I wouldn't worry though. I am sure everything will be ok. Sad you are missing your trip but at least you guys are ok!
