UPDATE again

This is from an e-mail I sent around to some people.

So I have figured that since you all know about the situation that I should keep you informed about it. I just got back from spending most of the day at the hospital. About 11 hours. So Carolyn is doing well. She was tired today because the nurse woke her up every hour last night which was a little more than necessary. She also got a room today which ended up not being that great. It's a shared room and the other lady had her kid there and was super loud but then the nurse told her he had to be quiet and that he had to be picked up because no adults were there to care for him. It was a long day. So she has been told so far that she is on strict bed rest. She can get up and walk to the bathroom but that is it. If she wants to go to the lounge it is by wheelchair. So far things are good. Contractions have stopped and she is getting steroid shots to help the baby grow. She is at about 30.5 weeks. She has to stay in the area (possibly the hospital but hopefully her brother in laws place) until 37 weeks and then she will be able to return to Creston because it would be a normal birth by then that is if the baby doesn't decide to come sooner. Every day she doesn't is good and every week is even better. Tomorrow she has an ultrasound and various other tests and then hopefully we will know more about what is going to happen.

Thank you for your prayers

I must go now as I am very tired...I am hoping for a good sleep on the couch.
