No more work

When I went to the doctor yesterday he wrote me a note so I could go on disability so my last official day of work will be next Friday, January 9th. I did not post that yesterday as I had not really told anyone at work, but now they know so you can too. I have mixed feelings about not working any more but hope that I can take my time to get things ready for the babies and rest a lot so I know it is for the best. I am coming up with lots to do in the short period of time that I am allowed out of bed during the day. Remember, I will have to rest for 2 hours in the morning and 3 hours in the afternoon and the rest of the day I just have to take it easy. Provided I behave and take care of myself I could go on this way for awhile, which is my hope. On the other hand, if things do not go well at my doctors visits, I could be put on bed rest and potentially sent to live at the hospital until the babies are born. I am hoping and praying that things go well and that we have healthy babies without long hospital stays!! My next appointment is January 13th and after that I will be seeing a doctor every week (between by regular ob and specialist). Oh, and by the way, for those of you wondering my blood pressure has been really good. 120 over 70 something so they are very pleased with that. My ankles are not swollen yet either so that is another really good sign since they were already noticeably swollen by this time with Caleb.
