Well, I had my first of what is probably not my last scares with little Finley today. I have been having some symptoms for the last few days that I will spare you from, but as I was driving back to my office with a friend, I casually began to talk to her about some of the "joys" I was experiencing. To make a long story short, she had me calling my doctor by the end of the conversation with the never-failing "better safe than sorry" attitude. WELL, I got a call not too long after saying the doctor wanted me to go ahead and come in.......umm......now I'm scared. I should know that with our history, he is just being safe, but any rational thought that I once had was thrown out the window at that moment. I called Kelly and we decided to meet at the doctors office. It was the longest wait of my life...and I'm sure Kelly's as well! My doctor immediately did an internal exam and **thank God!!** found that my cervix is completely closed and everything looks great! He got the doppler out to listen to Finn's heartbeat and as our doctor said, "it sounds beautiful." As he said that, Finn kicked the doppler, which for those of you who have heard the stories know that this is totally his character...doctor or not, he demands his space ;) On a not-so-fun note, one of two things has occurred. Either I pulled a muscle swimming (which I've never done but is not impossible) OR Finn found a comfy spot on one of my nerves. Dr. Ruiz thinks the latter, but time will tell. The back of my left leg is the victim, but I'll take this any day over any issues with Finn! Hopefully, he can find somewhere else that is equally as comfortable but not quite as painful for mommy...so as always, continue to pray for our little guy (and maybe for a new spot in his fin-bin).
