Yay, I'm home... Today has been a long, tiring day but at least knowing that my baby is fine is definitely worth running a trip to the hospital.

I went in around 10am and left the hospital at around 2pm. They kept me on a monitor for 2 hours because they wanted me make sure things are okay. At first, the nurse was worried that my baby wasn't doing much movements so she gave me some apple juice and was hoping to catch some movements. We heard the heart beat at a continuous rate of 140s-150s. Then, the monitor also picked up some of my contractions. When my nurse looked at the swelling in my legs, face, and hands, she paged my doctor.

The doctor came in 20 minutes later. By then, the baby was showing some increased movements. The baby was probably sleeping when the nurse put the monitor on. I was advised by my doctor to return to caseroom if I should get increased headache when not possibly relieved by acetaminophen or blurred vision. As for now, I am told to take it easy and have my blood pressure monitored daily just to make sure things are going accordingly.

I have to admit that I feel more at ease now even though after a tiring day of running around. Hopefully the baby will decide to show up sooner than my full 40 weeks...
