No exit allowed!

The gate is officially closed until the 37th week of pregnancy! I had a band put in place on Wednesday that will prevent the little bugger from trying to sneak out. The band is called a Shiradkar Suture and is the strongest kind of cervical closure that can be performed. They do it while under a spinal (so yes, I was awake during the procedure – very weird!) with the following week on bed rest. So until Wednesday I’m rotating between the bed, couch, and the recliner! It hasn’t been too bad, especially knowing that afterward I should be able to return to normal activity. In fact, the doctor said I’ll be able to break dance! I guess I’ll need to take some lessons!
