One month down...Two to go!!!

We were admitted to the hospital 4 weeks ago tomorrow...I'm still trying to decide if time is going by quickly or extremely slowly!

Here are the highlights of our stay so far (keep in mind, I only have one hand to type with and I am kind of foggy due to all the meds :)...
When we first checked in, my contractions were every 3-5 minutes, got hooked up to an IV of Magnesium (I'm convinced its really poison) in my arm and a Terbuteline pump in my leg. So far we've been able to control everything and we've pretty much been cruising by with little to no problems. We did have a little scare though this past Monday night when my water broke and Lathan's heart rate started taking some dips. Turns out it was actually Logan's bag that burst, the best scenario for the situation. Since he is the lowest baby his head is actually plugging the leak (Patrick has nick named him "cork boy"). They've added an antibiotic to my IV, increased the magnesium, restricted my activities even more and now monitor the babies and my contractions a few more times each day. If all stays like it is, Dr. Kirshon says that we shouldn't have a problem making it until mid June. Hopefully my belly won't pop before then! Each baby weighs about 2 pounds 3 ounces and all are very active. Hopefully we'll get some ultrasound photos posted soon, although the hospital only does the old fashioned ultrasounds; not nearly as fun as the 3 and 4d's we're used to!!!

Thanks to everyone for the visits, goodies, flowers, well wishes, cookies, meals (Mom sure is keeping all 5 of us fed well, bringing us dinner most every night...WOW!), and a really special thanks to Kenny and Dana who have gotten us set up with a fantastic laptop and internet connection.

Now if they would only allow Spongebob to stay with us and come up with wireless/needle-less IV's I would have nothing to complain about!!!
