Week 29 - Hospital Stay

As you all know now, Ali and I went to the hospital last week. It was a full moon last week the night we rushed there with many contractions. She swears that it is from the full moon and that there are more deliveries on such evenings. I don't know but it sounds like a bunch of new age hooey to me. We did find out however that there were quite a few twin pregnancies there the same evening and some were being squeezed out as we were entering the joint.

Ali has been on the magnesium for close to a week now and we were enlightened of new terminology for what they call such patients: Mag Hags! And boy let me tell you if that ain't the truth. She was LOCO, yelling at everyone and a cussing and a fussing. I think she is lucky they didn't hook her up to a cyanide drip to quiet her up. Finally she listened to her husband to succomb to her own inhibitions and take a fargin' Ambien and she was a whole differant person today and the babies were more active because they actually were able to sleep now their momma was. Stay tuned we will be announcing the big news soon of what we will be calling the three amigos; we'll keep it clean we promise.

Taylor & Allison -

I'm a friend of Paige's from California and she shared what you're going through with a group of us - her fellow mommy friends - and sent us your blog. I'll be sure to say a few extra prayers and send some good thoughts your way in hopes those babies stay inside as long as possible and you have a safe and easy delivery (don't be a martyr - go for the epidural!). This is an amazing journey you're going through and I wish you all the best.
