Well tomorrow morning, as early as possible, I will be checking back into the hospital for the day, maybe longer who knows. The baby is barely moving and I am trying everything. My doctor said to do a kick test every 2 hours and if the baby does not move 5 times in half an hour that I should get to the hospital ASAP but so far he's be barely moving the 5 times he should be whenever I check. I have been doing everything they have suggested to do to get him to liven up. As long as he keeps moving than I can wait until tomorrow to go to the hospital (mark seriously couldn't get off work today without risk of getting fired). I have to go to the hospital really early though, 5 o'clock and I'll be there for atleast one whole day and night. This kid must really like worrying me though because he seems to do it quite often. I'm resting in bed now, but I have managed to pull the keyboard up onto the bed so that I can still lay down and type at the same time.

that could be what is wrong with him. He is moving barely but for the past two days I have noticed his movements are so slight and very weak. Mark called my doctor from his work and that is all my doctor could suggest. He won't induce me though, ever, he said that because Emily was a c-section now they don't suggest inducing. So we'll just have to wait and see what happens tomorrow. I bet the baby will liven up tomorrow just to embarass me though and make me look like I am a paranoid mom.

just like when you take your kids to the doc..they were so miserable at home ..you take them in and they act like nothing is wrong or not near as bad as it seemed? maybe they learn it early:D

I hope all is well with you--keep us posted, okay?

Have you tried eating something really sugary? I know that when I *indulged* in lots of sugar, the baby would go nuts in there!

Hang in there Julie....you'll be glad when that baby comes out, I'll bet. My friend is pregnant with twins and is due in May. She has spent the better part of her pregnancy in and out of the hospital due to dehydration. Now she keeps having contractions. She needs to at least go until April 1st. I feel your pain. Take care of you and the babies!!

Mark here. I was just checking my emails before going to bed tonight and Julie text messaged me to come on here to let you guys know what happened today. Julie is fine and so is the baby the baby really started moving last night after Julie drank a can of mountain dew and some orange juice but the doctor still wanted her in the hospital this morning for tests. They have her hooked up to monitors and did an ultrasound on her today. The doctor thinks Julie is too stressed again which is causing the problems for the baby but fortunetely my sister has allowed us to keep one dog at her house if we stay there so atleast that has made Julie happier. I feel so bad Julie worries about telling me what she is worried about because she doesn't want to stress me out but she's really hurting herself and the baby too. I just wanted to let everyone know Julie is ok, and the baby is ok. She will be home tomorrow morning, unless something severe happens overnight which they really don't predict. I wish I could have stayed with her but I have to stay with Emily so I had to get Emily home for bed. I'm sure Julie will be happy to hear that you guys were all thinking about her today. I'll have to be sure to text message her back tonight to let her know you guys were thinking about her and the baby.
