one week in

Slight correction to the last post.  That was one day of bed rest at home down. 

It's now been over a week since I first checked into the hospital and began my horizontal life.  Woo hoo!!  I decided I needed to set a goal and start counting down.  Since it's a little arbitrary on how far we need to cook these little guys (developmental milestone at 32 weeks, "term" for twins at 36 weeks), I more or less arbitrarily chose September 5 as my goal.  When we first discovered we were having twins, my fertility doctor said that if we make it to Labor Day, everything would be good.  So, Labor Day has sort of always been in my mind, anyway and not just because of the fun of the pun.

So, 7 days of bed rest finished!  49 more to go!
