Melissa checked into the hospital four weeks ago today. If you count the first day this is the 29th day she's been in the hospital. I talked to her this morning and she was also feeling tired of worrying all of the time. We're both ready for a break and an opportunity to be genuinely happy and excited without the constant worrying. Hopefully the three of us will hang in there for another few weeks.
Bea had an unusual monitoring this morning and it upset Melissa. Unfortunately the doctors make late rounds on the weekend and she didn't get reassurances everything was just fine until mid-afternoon. The nurse said everything was normal for a baby of our size, however it was a unique monitoring for us and we needed extra reassuring. I'm sure there will be more intense worries before everything is all fine, hopefully they're few in number and short in duration.
It looks like the badgers will give Melissa some more entertainment tomorrow if they hold off the (formerly fighting) Illini. I don't know what their new mascot/nickname is. We joked about Melissa making it to the NCAA tournament in the hospital. Well we're getting really close. If Bea is born during the first weekend of the tournament, it might be difficult to celebrate her birthday without the tv on. Good thing the days rotate so her birthday wouldn't always be on a game day. Maybe she would always want travel to watch the Gophers in the tournament with her dad for her birthday present. ;) What if she wanted to travel to watch the badgers? :(
