Interesting call from my midwife today...

My midwife wants to start me on weekly progesterone shots to keep Maddy baking awhile longer... Yay another med to stop labor -_- So not what I was hoping but I'm still having contractions (about 8 an hour) despite being on a contraction med, so it's necessary. I'm praying we make it to at least 36 weeks... I can't deal with another pre-term baby again. Such a rough and emotional journey having a little one in the NICU. The fact that I'm still not dilating is AMAZING as I am having pretty regular contractions. I am so looking forward to our next milestones and I know soon, they will be here, and we will pass them!

Another stresser I have right now is baby clothes..... We are spending way too much on clothes and blankets I feel... But I can't seem to figure out how to lessen that price... I HATE Walmart clothes with a passion and we have actually gotten a few things from there. Our main buysing sources are Babies R Us an Carters.com (promo code for 20% off $40+ = WINTERJOY [ends Jan. 25th]) We are paying $265.25 for clothes and blankets... Seems so excessive to me. They are only newborn sizes too! WAY more than I thought I'd be paying or remember paying from the last babies... UGH! I'm really happy that we downsized the price of the crib set... We were going to pay over $400 for a 4 piece set from babybedding.com and then we found the one I previously blogged about for a lot less. Thank the Lord for that!
