A Reprieve


Yesterday was not the day. I had my go-bag packed and in the trunk of the car. I had friends, family and coworkers on high alert. I think even the floaties were nervous going to the doctor's office. But Dr. S looked at me and said, "Well, you're 32 weeks along. And you know what, you're going to stay pregnant a little longer."

So we – me, Matt and the floaties -- have earned a reprieve. Dr. S even said he thinks I'll make it to 34 weeks. I am amazed. He seems amazed. Our families are amazed.

"You've passed the scary part of the pregnancy," Dr. S added.

Slowly, I am taking my finger off the panic button.
