Taking precautions

I don't think I would be considered normal if I didn't have some concerns and reservations about this pregnancy.  I do feel relatively calm though, I am sure I could be lots worse.  I am however still trying to control what I can (part of my personality). 

B and I had a play date this afternoon with a friend.  I decided it won't be much longer before I will not be able to go solo with B.  My nearly 40lb preschooler can be a handful and hard/heavy to get up into his car seat.  I know the baby is only the size of a small seed and is not putting any pressure on my cervix but I still don't want to take any chances.

It's going to be hard but necessary.  I am sure there will be other changes to be made as time progresses and I will do whatever I can do to avoid a repeat of Gavin's early birth.

On our way to our play date I was playing one of my favorite bl songs on the stereo.  A little secret, it's all I listen to when it's just me or just me and B in the car. I sing to my baby Gavin.  By the time we exited off the highway a few tears had slid from my eyes.  Sadness, fear.  I sent a silent plea to God to keep this baby safe and let this one be our take home baby.

You're not alone on the playing bl songs and singing to them in the car... I totally do it too and it usually makes me cry. We're praying this is your take home baby too. Hugz!
